Beautiful Quality, Highly Productive Alfalfa 
In our opinion this Corn-Belt Alfalfa will yield equal to the best, 
and better than a great deal of alfalfa that is sown. Under average 
conditions you should find that it will make a taller growth and a 
considerably heavier yield. Customers in states like Wisconsin use 
very large quantities of seed like this. They use it in somewhat 
shorter rotation and like it because of its performance. Those dairy 
farmers know a good deal about getting the most seed out of an 
acre. Berry’s World Brand will help you get that too. Many agri- 
cultural authorities are now recommending shorter rotations where 
alfalfa is used. This Corn-Belt Alfalfa should give ideal results in 
such a program,

There is a saving of $5.50 per hundred 
however, between these two 8rades and 
that is a saving worth while. You do not 
have to sow this at any heavier rate per 
acre. The germination per 100 seeds is not 
quite so high but you have more seed ina 
pound. This lot is used by a great many of 
our customers with very satisfactory re- 
Sults. It certainly is a very low price for 
seed that gives this type of satisfaction and 
is a value that we do not believe can be 
duplicated anywhere. It will appeal to 
thrifty buyers asa sound practical value.

This is that famous Hardistan Alfalfa that has resistance to bac- 
terial wilt, as well as to extremes of cold 
of Turkestan Alfalfa. 
Hardistan will be much 
with the bacterial wilt. 
This variety Senerally does not produce as much seed as others 
but that seed sells at a premium price. Most of our customers want 
Alfalfa for hay and pasture, rather than seed. If you want extra 
hardiness plus wilt resistance this is a good kind to buy. The Ranger 
Alfalfa on page 22 is also wilt resistant but more expensive. 
Our Hardistan is Blue Tag Washington State Certified, which 
makes it extra hardy origin. That means the very best money 
can buy and we are pricing this to save you up to $5.00 per 
bushel,

cannot but give a good word for Berry’s. Your seed 
is exactly as represented as to quality and price, and 
always gives full satisfaction.

World Brand Arizona 
I bought this lot of seed early so it can be sold at a very 
attractive price. On the basis of today’s markets the price 
would be at least $3.00 per hundred higher. Compared with 
average prices prevailing you will find the savings range up 
to $6.00 to $7.50 per 100 lbs. That is a big saving. We invite 
you to make comparisons. They show what you can gain by 
trading at Berry’s. 
This seed is the regular type of Alfalfa 
8rown throughout most of the nation, It 
should not be confused with southern Peru- 
vian Alfalfa which is non-hardy in northern 
states. Our Western Alfalfa is considered 
to be on a par with Argentine seed in 
hardiness and production. That has given 
satisfaction to farmers over a Wide area 
throughout the Corn-Belt. This is World 
Brand Grade and that means the finest in 
quality in every way.

You will find three lots of Canadian Grimm Alfalfa seed in this 
catalog. This ‘Special’ Canadian and World Brand and Lot North on 
the next page. This “Special” Canadian is brighter in color than Lot 
North yet is lower in price. The color, germination, plumpness, etc., 
is practically equal to World Brand yet the price is about $10.00 per 
100 lbs. less. 
Why so low priced, if it is so good? 
simply because it contained around 5% 
that it tests 99% pure. 
We got it at that discount 
of Sweet Clover. Including: 
It is free of noxious weed seeds and high in 
germination. This is what happens to the Sweet Clover under corn- 
belt practices. It dies out after the first cutting in the second year. 
The second growth of Sweet Clover does not come from a crown like 
Alfalfa. It comes from the stems that are left standing. When you 
cut it close to the ground there is fSenerally not enough stem left to 
make a growth so that only the Alfalfa remains, 
We know there are many farmers who appreciate a chance to 
get seed of such beautiful quality at so low @ price. Our “‘Spe- 
cial” Canadian is a very special value while it lasts.
