Hardie’s Alfalfa 
“FOR HAY AND PASTURE” 
Alfalfa is a very profitable crop, yielding 
three to five cuttings a year and the hay is 
most nutritious. It is claimed that the feed 
value of a ton of Alfalfa is equal to a ton of 
shelled corn. The yield in weight will average 
five to seven tons per acre. The roots will pen- 
erate to a depth of 15 to 20 feet and it will 
ret plant food where other crops would be a 
failure. 
750—HARDIE’S FANCY NATIVE ALFALFA. 
Our supply of seed for 1948 selling is of the 
very highest quality, truly acclimated to the 
South. Do not buy cheap Alfalfa seed. If it is 
cheap it is not pure, but mixed with weed 
seed. Lb., 50c, postpaid. 
751—HAIRY PERUVIAN. More upright grow- 
ing than our native grown, and especially 
adapted for the South. Derives its name from | 
the leaves and stems being quite hairy. The 
crowns are more erect and have fewer stems, 
which are coarser than ordinary Alfalfa. 
Grows in cool weather when other Alfalfa has 
ceased growing. Lb., 55c, postpaid. 
Sunflower 
882—MAMMOTH RUSSIAN. There is nothing 
that equals it for making chickens grow rap- 
idly and produces a fine glossy plumage. It is

drills, four to five pounds; if broadcast (which 
we believe best for the South), seven to eight 
pounds to the acre.

Hardie’s Tested Seed Corn 
For over 40 years, we have given especial thought and care to the selection of seed corn 
which would give best results under the varying growing conditions in this section, and by 
offering only the choicest-tested varieties, we have now become widely known as a dependable 
source of seed for this most important crop. We offer Northern and Southern varieties. Some 
growers prefer the one; others pin their faith to the other. From our 45 years’ experience, we 
believe that the judicious farmer should mix his crop—planting some of both the early maturing 
Northern corns and some of the later Southern varieties. The earlier Northern corns often make 
before our occasional dry seasons set in.
