we will send you samples and advise you what the purity and germination 
test are of any of the Grass or Farm Seeds. 
Alfalfa 
CULTURE—Alfalfa Seed may be sown either in spring or in fall at the 
rate of 12 to 20 pounds per acre. Sow with oats, barley, tield peas or other 
grains as a nurse crop, sowing only about half the amount of grain per 
acre, so that the grain will not be too thick to smother out the alfalfa. 
Alfalfa is the great hay crop for America and can be successfully grown in many 
localities. Alfalfa is of two types, the Domestic or Common which has a long tap 
root which penetrates into the soil for a distance of 8 to 10 feet and the Grimm 
Type, which has a spreading root system. The Grimm Type is considered the 
hardiest although on certain soils and in certain localities the Hardy Common 
varieties will stand extremes of heat and cold equally well. 
All our Domestic Alfalfa Seed is especially selected for Adaptability, 
Hardiness, and is of U. S. Verified Origin. 
DOMESTIC ALFALFA—Fancy grades, high altitude 
or northern grown seed meeting Soil Conservation 
requirements. Hardy, of high purity and germina¬ 
tion. 
Postpaid (lb. 40c) (5 lbs. $1.85) (10 lbs. $3.50) (25 
lbs. $8J£5). 
DOMESTIC ALFALFA—Fancy grade seed grown in 
lower altitudes than Colorado, is of U. S. Verified 
Origin and in many places meets Soil Conservation 
requirements. 
Postpaid (Ib. 40«) (5 lbs. $1.75) (10 lbs. $3.25) (25 
lbs. $7.75). 
MEEKER BAI.TIC (Blue Tag Grade)—This hardy 
strain is produced in the same district in Colorado 
as the Moffat Grimm. It is of the Grimm type and 
by some authorities is considered the hardiest and 
most productive variety. 
Postpaid (lb. 55e) (5 lbs. $2.50) (10 lbs. $4.75) (25 
lbs. $11.25). 
NORTH DAKOTA VARIEGATED ALFALFA—Grown 
principally in the Dakotas and Canada. It is con¬ 
sidered one of the hardiest strains. 
Postpaid (lb. 50c) (5 lbs. .$2.25) (10 lbs. $4.25) (25 
lbs. $10.00). 
COSSACK ALFALFA—A hardy Grimm type Alfalfa 
with variegated flowers. Largely grown in the 
Northwest on account of its cold and drought 
resistance. Montana grown seed. 
Postpaid (lb. 50c) (5 lbs. $2.25) (10 lbs. $4.25) (25 
lbs. $10.00). 
GRIMM ALFALFA (Blue Tag Grade)—State sealed 
Grimm Alfalfa is the hardiest of the hardy alfalfas 
and differs from the domestic or common variety 
in that it has a spreading root system instead of 
the long tap root which is sometimes broken 
when the ground bulges, during the spring freezes, 
thus causing the plant to die. Highest grade seed. 
Postpaid (lb. 55c) (5 lbs. $2.50) (10 lbs. $4.75) (25 
lbs. $11.25). 
MOFFAT GRIMM ALFALFA (Grimm Type)—Grown 
principally in the mountainous districts in north¬ 
western Colorado in Moffat, Routt and Rio Blanco 
counties, under the most rigorous climatic condi¬ 
tions. Very hardy and will produce as fine a hay 
crop as the registered seed. 
Postpaid (lb. 45c) (5 lbs. $2.10) (10 lbs. $4.00) (25 
lbs. $9.00). 
LADAK—A wilt-resistant variety adapted to a wide 
range of conditions. Ladak is slow to start in 
the spring, but produces a large first cutting. 
It resists drought and produces a good yield of 
hay when other varieties are practically at a 
standstill. The hay is leafy and of high feeding 
value, and will hold a stand from one to two 
years longer than other varieties. 
Postpaid (lb. 55c) (5 lbs. $2.50) (10 lbs. $4.75) (25 
lbs. $11.25). 
ARGENTINE ALFALFA—This is imported from Ar¬ 
gentina in South America, grown in Rio Hondo 
Province 39° Latitude South. Denver is 40° North. 
Argentine seed should be comparable with seed 
grown in the Southern half of Colorado and similar 
latitudes. It is similar in type to our Common 
Alfalfa, except that it grows taller and is coarser. 
Stems are leafy and produce more tonnage per 
acre. It is well liked by growers who have tried 
it. Imported Seed is stained 10% Orange-Red as 
required by government regulations. Not ap¬ 
proved for Soil Conservation in Colorado. 
Postpaid (lb. 35e) (5 lbs. $1.65) (10 lbs. $3.00) (25 
lbs. $6.50).
