ALFALFA AND CLOVERS 
Prices on Page 27 

ALFALFA—Although alfalfa seed production in the United States was 
the largest on record, there is a terrific demand for Northern Grown 
alfalfa, and prices at far greater differentials over southern seed 
than normally have been paid for Wyoming and Montana seed. 
Beware of low priced Alfalfa Seed this year. It is almost sure to 
be of an origin not proven hardy for Wyoming or Montana. We 
sell nothing but Hardy Wyoming and Montana Grown Alfalfa. We 
pave fair size stocks of Grimm, Cossack and Common of good 
quality. 


Don’t let Alfalfa Weevil or Grasshoppers destroy your 
new seeding or old fields of Alfalfa. With the discovery of 
CHLORDANE an effective means of combatting these and other 
insect pests is now available at reasonable cost. Ask us for 
full information. 

RED CLOVER—Valuable legume crop, may be grown alone or in mix- 
ture with grasses. Not bothered by weevil. It is also profitable 
here as a seed crop. Very scarce this year. All our seed is locally 
grown. 
ALSIKE—A clover that is valuable in mixtures for either hay or pas- 
tures. While it does well in ordinary soils, it will thrive in soils 
too wet for either red clover or alfalfa. Widely used in pasture 
mixtures, as it will not bloat stock even with heavy dew. 
SWEET CLOVER—One of the best soil builders ever cultivated, and 
excellent pasture. Very useful planted with dry land grasses for 
pasture, as it will provide feed before the slow starting grasses 
have become established. 
GRASSES. 
You often hear it said that Grass is one of Wyoming’s most. valua- 
ble assets. This can be said not only of our natural range, but also 
of cultivated pasture grasses, both for irrigated and dry land. The 
cattle and sheep industry can do much to increase the carrying capa- 
city of their lands with proper planting of pasture and meadow grasses 
and legumes. This has been a major study with us for a long time 
and many of our customers have found our suggestions helpful. Feel 
free to consult us on this subject—we may be able to help you too. 
All grass seed we offer is high quality.

BROME GRASS—Makes a prolific growth in early spring, even during 
- eold weather. Will stand more drought than most grasses, being 
largely planted on dry land, as well as irrigated. Planted a few 
pounds per acre with alfalfa, it increases as the alfalfa thins out 
and keeps out cheat, also making much better fall feed.
