ALFALFA 
GRIMM (IDAHO BLUE TAG) Highest grade state cer- 
tified seed of one of the hardiest strains. Always inocu- 
late Alfalfa seed. 
Crop failures in all the northern sections upon which we 
denend for hardy strains of Alfalfa make it impossible to 
offer seed of our usual quality. We hope to have reason- 
able quantities from other sources which we can offer 
with confidence in its hardiness. Ask for prices.
