ALFALFA 
The Profitable and Nutritious Hay Crop 
Alfalfa or Lucerne will produce from 5 to 7 tons of hay 
an acre each year in the South. Lime should be applied at 
the rate of 1500 pounds to the acre. Before sowing the seed 
it will be best to inoculate them, if Alfalfa has never been 
grown on the soil you are to sow. 
CANADIAN VARIEGATED ALFALFA. Originated in 
Welland County, Ontario, about 17 years ago. It is de- 
scribed by Dr. Zavitz, of the Ontario Agricultural College, 
as an exceptionally hardy strain of Alfalfa. He reports 
that in an experiment extending over a period of 10 years, 
Canadian Variegated proved hardier than Grimm or 
Baltic. The New York Experiment Station reports Can- 
adian Variegated just as hardy and just as high yielding 
as any strain of Grimm Alfalfa. We have the genuine 
stock to offer, Canadian grown, at lower prices even than 
Montana common. 
GRIMM ALFALFA (Ohio-grown). May usually be distin- 
guished from common Alfalfa, first by the fact that the 
blossoms are usually, not always, variegated in color, 
yellow, green, blue, brown, etc., instead of all purple. 
Second, by the branching root system instead of the long, 
straight tap root of the common Alfalfa. This enables it 
to withstand the hard winters, the tap root of the common 
Alfalfa often being broken by heavy freezing.

Sweet Clover ed 
White Blossom Hy-Cross T-13 Ensilage Corn 
BOKHARA (Melilotus alba). This legume is native to all parts of this country and is the most 
beneficial of all crops for building up worn-out land. Thrives on all soils, but like all Clovers 
requires lime, which should be supplied on land where it is lacking. Makes fine pasture for 
bees and good quality of hay relished by all stock. Does best when seeded alone. Sow in 
spring or fall. Twenty to thirty pounds are required per acre. (Can also furnish yellow 
blossom if desired.) 
MILLET 
GOLDEN or LIBERTY MILLET. Is decidedly one of the best varieties to grow for a hay 
crop; produces large crop of fine grass ranging in height from 4% to 6 feet, according to 
strength of soil. Can be cut green or made into hay, and is readily eaten by stock. It re- 
quires 1 bushel to sow an acre broadcast. 
Swedish Select Oats 
New Crop—High Test 
Weighs around 38 pounds to measured bushel. After years 
of trial we have again come back to this variety as the leader. 
Grains pure white, plump, heads upright, large and bushy, 
thin hull, stiff straw stands throughout bad weather, as near 
smut-proof as they make these Oats. Are Certified and the 
very best obtainable, grown for seed. An early order will 
make you sure of getting good Northern seed. 
Ensilage 
HY-CROSS T-13 ENSILAGE CORN. Grows stalks 12 to 14 
feet high and a big ear 10 to 12 inches long with 12 to 14 
rows of broad white grain and a red cob. Matures in 110 to 
115 days. Vigorous growth. O & M Hy-Cross T-13 has re- 
placed Blue Mountain, as it is earlier in maturing, has the 
same characteristics with a better root system and other 
improvements. This corn is a cross of two outstanding 
ensilage corns, one of the leading red cob varieties and one 
of the leading white cob varieties, and produces more Silage 
than any corn we have ever grown. Harlier than BKureka, 
this cross has greatly improved the root system, making a 
; stronger, hardier plant. Actual tests have proved this corn 
Millet to be superior to the common varieties, in tonnage and 
choles feeding qualities. 14 Ilbs., $1.50; 56 lbs., $5.00,
