You all know this type is extra hardy Alfalfa. It was grown in the territory of 
northern Nebraska, So. Dakota borders on the north. This is Pinnacle Brand quality. 
The appearance of this seed is equal or better than the best sold by other seed 
houses. It is new crop seed. Any competent judge of Alfalfa will agree with us 
that this is extra fancy quality. The high color, plump berries and freedom from 
noxious weeds verifies our statement. It was grown in a territory where the mercury 
goes down twenty to thirty degrees about every winter. And the extreme heat in 
the summer produces plants that will survive where others fail. Many dealers ask 
a premium of $2.00 to $3.00 per bushel for Dakota 12 Alfalfa. We guarantee this 
seed to be just as represented. Buy this seed and you will be our friend and 
‘customer next year. Now is the time to buy. Market strong.
