Hoffman Is Ready with Soy 
Beans Your Stock Will Like 
A great soiling crop! That’s what folks still say about Soy 
Beans. But a new interest has developed recently, since 
it’s been proven what a versatile emergency and feed crop they 
are, too! Your stock will like the Soy Beans we carry. They’re 
proven, established strains that you can count on when dry 
weather reduces normal hay yields. 
Horses, sheep and hogs thrive on Soy Beans either as 
leguminous roughage or as bean meal for hogs particularly. 
For dairy cows, hay containing beans is equal to alfalfa in milk 
production, and costs less. Richest protein grain and nitrogen 
roughage. A leguminous soil builder if inoculated, it fits well 
in rotations. Used also as mixed silage, planted directly with 
corn or separately and mixed in the silo. 
Thrives on a wide range of soils. Just don’t plant too early— 
about same as corn. Don’t drill too deep. Lime, if soil is sour. 
Inoculate, and you put nitrogen into your soil as well as get a 
crop out of it. 
“WILSON BLACK” SOY BEANS 
If you’ve never tried Soy Beans before, start with “Wilson’s’”— 
for hay, foliage, bean meal, soiling or green manure. Beans 
are medium size, jet black—20 bushels per acre easy, with 
30-bushel yields reported. Also a leading producer of better 
quality hay. Wonderful growth up to 6 feet, even 4 feet on 
poor ground, with slender stems and branches. Good crop of 
beans on poor soil, better forage on good soil. Early enough 
to mature beans in Southern Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey 
and southward.

“The ‘G 218’ Hybrid is the 
best corn for the short sea- 
son of this locality. The fod- 
der stood up well with a fair- 
size ear and no nubbins. I 
am very well pleased.”— 
Wm. W. Jones, Jamison, Pa. 

Don’t fail to Inoculate your 
Soy Bean seed. . . . Applying 
Hoffman’s Inoculant (now 
costing lower than ever be- 
fore) means greatly improved 
soils, No inoculation means 
the ground gets poorer grow- 
ing soys. Protect yourself!
