All of our seed is northern grown, therefore, it is best adapted to our 
climate. 
GRIMM ALFALFA was brought to the United States by a Mr. Grimm. 
He settled in Minnesota, and the seed was sown and 
produced exceptionally hardy plants, and when it was eventually recog- 
nized as a superior strain, it became known as Grimm Alfalfa. From its 
adopted home it rapidly spread over the Northwest, and its superiority 
is now so generally proven that it is rapidly superseding the Common 
Alfalfa. We have never known a failure in Michigan of true Grimm. 
Our Grimm Alfalfa, which is scarified seed, is grown by reputable or- 
ganizations, and certified by the proper State officers in the state where

By far the most important IZE etai 
Medium Red or June Clover of all Clovers for practical 
purposes. It is a perennial, and grows about two feet high; 
very valuable for plowing under to enrich the soil, adding 
humus and nitrogen. Sow in spring or fall, eight to twelve 
pounds per acre, if used without other grasses. 
Mammoth Clover is 
Mammoth or Large Red Clover wart ince from 
medium, growing to nearly twice its size; is coarser and a 
little later. It can be grown successfully on poorer soil than 
Medium Clover. It is used extensively for building up worn- 
out land. Sown alone, use eight to twelve pounds per acre. 
: A perennial and the most hardy of all 
Alsike Clover Clovers. It prefers damp, loamy soil. It is 
extremely leafy, making hay of a fine texture. Does not 
readily winter-kill, and is valuable to sow with other 
Clovers and grasses, as it increases the yield of hay. It is 
the best Clover for moist soil. Sow either in spring or 
fall, about six pounds per acre, when sown alone. 
White Blossom Sweet Clover Once considered a noxious 
weed; now nearly equal 
in value to alfalfa. White Sweet Clover is a biennial, and 
does not last so long as its cousin, alfalfa, but it has a great 
mission. In pasture it will produce a greater flow of milk 
than even alfalfa, and as much feed. Cattle are less liable 
to bloat. Stock soon learn to like the hay, and even prefer 
it to alfalfa. Write for prices.
