Be Sure to Inoculate—See Page 14

Soy Bean seed should always 
be inoculated. This New Jer-' 
sey customer (shown above) 
knows the truth about good 
Soy Bean seed and Hoffman's 
Inoculant. 
“I have been using Hoffman’s 
seeds for the past ten years. 
The Manchu Soy Beans I 
sowed last year made a good 
stand. Stood from 30 to 36 
inches high. They make ex¬ 
cellent green feed.”— L. W. 
Kline, Cresson, Pa. 
“WILSON BLACK" SOY BEANS 
I wenty bushels of beans per acre are easy with "Wilson Black.” 
Thirty-bushel yields have often been reported. Beans are 
medium size, jet black. Yet the bean crop does not make the 
'Wilson” such a favorite—it is also one of the best hay pro¬ 
ducers. Its wonderful growth, with slender stems and branches 
—6 feet tall on good ground, 4 feet tall even on poor ground 
—assures you more hay of better quality. Early enough to 
mature beans in Southern Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey and 
south of these points. It produces a good crop of beans on 
pooi; soil, a better crop of forage on good soil. If you have 
never grown Soy Beans start with "Wilson’s”—no matter what 
you want—hay, foliage, bean meal, soiling, green manuring— 
this variety has it. 
“MANCHU" SOY BEANS 
Tall, erect and bushy—which makes it popular in Pennsylvania 
and nearby states. Produces quantities of medium-sized yellow 
beans, which mature in about 110 days. Good for forage and 
for hogging down. Doesn’t lose beans easily by shelling out. 
The quality of this seed is recommended as clean of foul matter 
—and of sound tested growth. 
“VIRGINIA” 
A good hay and forage Soy Bean for Maryland, Virginia, Dela¬ 
ware, Ohio, New Jersey and Southern Pennsylvania. Very pro 
ductive. Produces beans brown in color. 
“ILLINI" 
The earliest maturing of the Yellow Soy Beans—fully two 
weeks earlier than "Manchu.” Produces good hay. Makes 
heavy crops of beans. 
MIXED SOY BEANS 
Serve well as a cover crop to turn under. Of good quality, 
sound germination. Free from weeds. Saves something in seed 
cost, because cannot be sold as any one straight unmixed strain.

Grass silage makes economi¬ 
cal feed for the production of 
milk. Is very acceptable when 
pasture is short. A life-saver 
in areas where beetles have 
become very bad. Some folks 
who pass on milk quality, 
claim that grass silages are 
superior to corn in producing 
quality milk. 
“I planted 9 acres with one bushel of Funk ‘G 63’ Hy¬ 
brid. My other corn turned out 80 bushels of ears for 
the one acre while the Hybrid turned out 100 bushels 
per acre. The Hybrid was standing up straight while 
the other was down. You could tell to the very row 
which was which. The Hybrid was easier to husk. The 
ears were better filled out, more the same size, not as 
long, but much more even and every stalk had one ear 
of corn on it. The Hybrid had much better fodder. 
The husks on the ears died much sooner but the stalks 
still stayed green while most of the other corn was the 
other way .”—John Lott, Gettysburg . Pa.
