This is our lowest price grade of hardy domestic 
alfalfa seed. Although it is cheaper in price, it brings 
us the most letters of praise. Those who judge by 
results consider it wonderful. 
If you go by looks of 
the seed, you will not find it tops. It contains some 
off colored seed. Some smaller berries. The smaller 
berries mean more seed per lb. When you sow the 
same number of lbs. per acre as with other grades, 
you put more seeds per square foot. That is why it 
does so well, even though the germination per hun- 
dred seeds is somewhat lower. You will find it highly 
satisfactory in yields and quality. It is exactly the 
same in hardiness as any of our Corn-belt stock. It 
should yield as well, and last as long.

Customers Are Enthused About Honest John 
Customers write in and say it produces stands as “thick as hair on a dog’s 
back.” Others write that they saw Honest John on their neighbor's field 
where it produced better stands than they had from seed costing almost 
twice as much. We handle this serviceable seed for those who want to 
cut their seeding cost as low as possible.

If you do not object to a lack of uni-

this seed should please you.

it will be the selection of thousands of farmers. It is not always possible 
for us to secure enough of this type of alfalfa to supply the tremendous 
demand that exists. 
Gentlemen: 

Therefore we sincerely request that you order as 
early as you can. This great value reduces your seeding 
cost very drastically. 
You can afford to use it liberally, 
either in establishing stands of pure alfalfa, or using it 
with mixtures or other grasses, or clovers.
