Up in Bradford County, Pa. 
—near the New York State 
line—was this fine example 
of the good that comes from 
sowing Hoffman Quality Tim- 
othy Seed. Farm of Charles

FERTILIZING TIMOTHY 
Top dressing timothy in 
early spring with about 
100 pounds per acre of ni- 
trate of soda, ammonium 
sulphate, or similar mate- 
rial will greatly increase 
your hay crop. The addi- 
tion of an equal amount 
of superphosphate may 
yield an even greater in- 
crease.

TIMOTHY SEED 
Hoffman’s *“Farmers’ Choiee”’ 
Timothy is such an old familiar crop that it encourages the mis- 
take of assuming that timothy is timothy regardless where the 
seed comes from. This isn’t true. There’s good timothy and 
bad timothy, and Hoffman’s ‘Farmers’ Choice’ is truly top- 
notch seed! For over 30 years tests have proven it to run 
around 9934 per cent pure. It’s the cleanest, plumpest, most 
vigorous seed of the crop. The best proof is shown in the crops 
that Hoffman customers cut from it year after year. Yet the 
Hoffman price compares with ordinary timothy, the slight 
premium for superior cleaning and sound germination paying 
heavy dividends in terms of more hay per acre! 
FOR HEAVY HAY CROPS 
ECONOMICAL 
MIXTURE 
1% Red Clover 
gs . | 4 Alsike 
Economical as its name—but outstanding in its per- 
formance. As a combination, it is ideal for hay, pas- 
ture, or general soil improvement. You save money 
because the seed is made up mostly from lots of 
mixed clovers and timothy produced in this mixed 
condition. Hence the lower cost of the seed. Pro- 
ortions may vary slightly at times, with perhaps a 
little alfalfa, or even other crop seeds, present. But 
all lots are mixed thoroughly, and checked for free- 
dom from weeds. Enthusiastic reports come in from 
all over. ‘“Couldn’t have been better.” “I got 16 
loads of fine hay from 8 acres in a dry summer,” 
reports John Dinius, Selinsgrove, Pa. It has become 
a standard every-year purchase on many Eastern 
farms. Certainly has gained a lot of warm friends!
