The acreage seeded to Alfalfa in Michigan is increasing every year. 
All of our seed is northern grown, therefore, it is best adapted to our 
climate. 
GRIMM ALFALFA was brought to the United States by a Mr. Grimm. 
He settled in Minnesota, and the seed was sown and 
produced exceptionally hardy plants, and when it was eventually recog¬ 
nized as a superior strain, it became known as Grimm Alfalfa. From its 
adopted home it rapidly spread over the Northwest, and its superiority

in Michigan and has 
one of the leading 
varieties because of its hardiness and heavy yielding ability. 
For the past four years it has been the outstanding variety

has not been grown more extensively was the lack of 
sufficient supply of seed. Write for prices.

in value to alfalfa. White Sweet Clover is a biennial, and 
does not last so long as its cousin, alfalfa, but it has a great 
mission. In pasture it will produce a greater flow of milk 
than even alfalfa, and as much feed. Cattle are less liable 
to bloat. Stock soon learn to like the hay, and even prefer 
it to alfalfa. Write for prices.
