Farmers of some sections who start 
their Alfalfa in August, find they gain a 
whole year over the old practice of sprin 
sowing. Next year every extra pound o 
milk or beef you can produce will be 
extra valuable. Get started—and be sure 
you pet started right for those extra 
pounds. ... 
Sow Hoffman Genuine 
NORTHWEST ALFALFA 
Let us tell you a few facts about alfalfa 
—facts that will affect your feeding pro- 
ram for the next five and more years. 
irst, you can’t tell what Alfalfa seed is 
going to do for you by looking at it. We 
sell genuine Northwest seed, and we 
know that it comes directly from the 
high-up Rocky Mountain States, where 
it has to be hardy. You don’t have to 
take our word for this—it bears a U. S. 
Verified Origin Tag. There is other Alfalfa 
seed on the market that goes by the name 
of Northwest. Mighty good looking seed, 
too, and if you lived down in the Caro- 
linas, or south, it would be good seed to 
sow. But the trouble with it up here is 
the fact that a good part of it comes from 
the southwest, where the climate is al- 
ways pleasant and favorable. When one 
of our northern freezing winters hits it, 
good-bye to your plans for Alfalfa hay 
next spring. 
We've been handling our Northwest 
Alfalfa seed for more than 20 years. 
We’ve visited the growing sources regu- 
larly, watched the care with which they 
repare this seed. We've been selling 
Northwest all those years to our good 
friends. To the big fellows who know to 
a penny which Alfalfa is best to plant; 
to the little fellows who had to depend 
on it for feed—or else! So when we say

For Plenty of Alfalfa, 
Starting Next Summer 
it produces heavy, extra loads, we are 
presenting the evidence of farmers like 
yourself, who aren’t farming for the fun 
of it, but must get good results! 
So, here are two facts to think about, 
while you have this price list in your 
hand. 
Authorities say the best time to sow 
is from August 15th into early September. 
Many leading Alfalfa farmers know 
that the best kind to sow is Hoffman’s 
Northwest, the seed from the right source, 
that is cleaned by the thorough Hoffman 
method. It is free from foul weeds, and 
has real vigor bred into it! 
Other Alfalfa Strains — 
Clean and Vigorous Too 
If you are a “Grimm” Alfalfa man 
(some farmers in highlands or northern 
altitudes prefer it), we have both U. S. 
Verified and State Certified seed you can 
count on. Also the Canadian Variegated 
Alfalfa (for far North) and Kansas AlI- 
falfa (used in Southern Pennsylvania and 
South) are also available. The seed we 
have is the best that careful selection of 
sources can produce. The reason we rec- 
ommend Northwest so highly, is because 
we've seen, year after year, what vigor- 
ous stands, with load after load of hay 
or silage, it has produced for the largest 
number of our farmer friends. - 
IMPORTANT: Be sure to inoculate 
your Alfalfa seed this year. No commer- 
cial fertilizer will contain nitrogen this 
fall. Hoffman’s Inoculant enables Alfalfa 
plants to get nitrogen out of the air. Or- 
der inoculant with your seed.
