Hardie’s Alfalfa 
“FOR HAY AND PASTURE” 
Alfalfa is a very profitable crop, yielding 
three to five cuttings a year and the hay is 
most nutritious. It is claimed that the feed 
value of a ton of Alfalfa is equal to a ton of 
shelled corn. The yield in weight will average 
five to seven tons per acre. The roots will pen- 
erate to a depth of 15 to 20 feet and it will 
get plant food where other crops would be a 
failure. 
When once established. Alfalfa is the most 
valuable permanent cover crop that can be 
grown, also has the highest feeding value of 
any hay. 
When considering the planting of Alfalfa, 
it is wise to remember that it is one of the 
best soil builders. Should you want to plant 
Alfalfa land in some other crop and destroy 
the plants, the large roots decay and produce 
a wonderful source of fertility for the grow¬ 
ing of new crops.

Hardie’s Tested Seed Corn 
For over 39 years, we have given especial thought and care to the selection of seed corn 
which would give best results under the varying growing conditions in this section, and by 
offering only the choicest-tested varieties, we have now become widely known as a dependable 
source of seed for this most important crop. We offer Northern and Southern varieties. Some 
growers prefer the one; others pin their faith to the other. From our 39 years’ experience, we 
believe that the judicious farmer should mix his crop—planting some of both the early maturing 
Nor^h^rn corns and some of the later Southern varieties. The earlier Northern corns often make 
befon our occasional dry seasons set in.
