X'L Brand Tested Field Seeds 
Labeled Seed 
When buying field seed from a reliable seed company you are receiving 
the protection of the Montana Seed Laws, which are checked and enforced by 
your State College. 
Purity, Germination and locality where seed is grown is all carefully and 
correctly shown on the X-L labels. Purity is most important. 1% does not 
seem like much weed seed, but think of putting 99 alfalfa seeds on a dime 
and 1 mustard seed. Then compare a dime to an acre and you have some 
idea of the importance of clean seed.

X'L Lada1{ 
Because Ladak Alfalfa is more drought resistant and has less loss from winter 
killing , it outyielded Grimm Alfalfa 13% over a 10-year period in a test con¬ 
ducted at the Northern branch station. Another feature of Ladak Alfalfa is the 
fineness of the stems, and abundance of leaves. In the Milk River Valley a 
premium was paid last year for Ladak Alfalfa Hay. Please refer to price list. 
X-L GRIMM 
Grimm Alfalfa has been proven in a 10-year test to out- 
yield Common by 12%. Since losses from winter killing and 
drought determined the difference in yields, this test should 
be the yardstick by which the Montana planter purchases 
his seed. See price list. 
REGISTERED BLUE TAG GRIMM 
is officially sealed and registered by the Montana Seed 
Growers Assn, after they ascertain that purity is 99.25% or 
better, and contains no sweet clover, dodder or noxious 
weeds. Please refer to price list.

is true Grimm of high purity and germination, but not reg¬ 
istered. Please refer to price list.
