FARM SEEDS 
ALFALFA 
Sow 15 to 20 Ibs. to the acre in March or April 
Preparation of Soil—Good loam or clay soil with natural 
or artificial drainage, with no hardpan underneath, will 
grow alfalfa when properly prepared, and proper and thor- 
ough preparation is a prime necessity for a uniform, heavy 
stand. Where the soil is acid, and that is the case in 
most instances, liming is necessary. Lime must be used 
not only to neutralize the acid in the soil, but leave a 
surplus besides for the use of the plant. For correcting 
the soil acidity, lime must be used at the rate of from 
1 to 2% tons per acre, after plowing. A firm seed bed is 
very essential and the land should be prepared sometime 
in advance of seeding. During this interval harrow the 
land frequently both ways to kill out all weeds. The 
young plants are not oble to cope with weeds, but once 
established, are well able to care for themselves.

Who Wouldn’t Invest 10c to Get Back $15.00 
There are plenty of facts to prove that these high re- 
turns are facts. Figure it out. It costs only 10 to 20 cents 
to treat enough legume seeds for an acre. These plants 
grow quicker, mature sooner, give you better crops and 
enrich your soil with nitrogen to benefit your next crop. 
Conservative estimate—a profit of $20 to $30 
UTAH HIGHLAND ALFALFA 
Preferred by many of the largest growers throughout 
the Piedmont and mountain sections. Being grown in a 
more northern section is hardier than Kansas or Okla-

GENUINE KANSAS GROWN ALFALFA 
The most popular strain in the East 
It stands the severe winters of Kansas, and will come 
through our winters splendidly, rarely ever winter-killing. 
In a test of alfalfa from many sources made by the Vir- 
ginia Agricultural Experiment Station, four plantings of 
Kansas alfalfa stood the winter better than any, and 
yielded more than 4% tons per acre. It makes a quick 
spring growth and gives severdl cuttings each season.

OKLAHOMA-KANSAS ALFALFA 
For Virginia, North Carolina and other Southern States, 
Oklahoma-Kansas is highly recommended. The _ senior 
agronomist of the United States Department of Agricul- 
ture recently said in a letter: “In the southern half of 
the United States, Oklahoma and Kansas alfalfa gener- 
ally survive the winters satisfactorily, and under such 
conditions we have found no significant difference in 
yield.”

GRIMM ALFALFA 
In Sealed Bags 
Grimm Alfalfa is the hardiest of all alfalfas and will 
stand the severest winters of our mountain sections. It 
has a deep branching root growth that gives the plant a 
firm hold on the soi! and prevents heaving by frequent 
freezes and thaws, and also adapts it to shallower soils. 
If your soil has a hardpan near the surface or if your 
farm is in the mountain section, it will pay you to give 
Grimm the preference. Oklahoma Grimm. Lb. 22c., Bu.
