Be Sure to Check This 
Value : 
Our old customers are well 
acquainted with Berry’s World 
Brand quality... They Know that 
they will get something extra 
nice and extra fancy when they 
order this grade. If you are not, 
as yet, a regular Berry cus- 
tomer, I urge you to compare 
this value with any that you 
can find anywhere, at any price. 
Page 30 tells you about our 
Corn-Belt alfalfa and I am anx- 
ious that you try this seed that 
has given such fine satisfaction 
to so many of our customers. 
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- 
eultural authorities are now recommending shorter rotations where 
alfalfa is used. This Corn-Belt Alfalfa should give ideal results in 
such a program. 


Very Choice Grade of Corn-Belt Alfalfa 
This grade of alfalfa will bring you exactly the same kind of 
alfalfa that you will get from the World Brand grade described 
above. It is a good serviceable lot. We would term it a medium 
grade quality. It is quite a bit finer grade than the Honest John 
described on page 22. It is not as smooth and uniform as our 
World Brand Grade, not quite as nice in color nor are the 
berries quite as large. There is a saving of $7.50 per hundred 
however, between these two grades 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 in a 
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 as a sound practical value. 

Extra Fancy World Brand Quality 
This beautiful, bright seed comes from the high altitude states of 
the Rocky Mountain region. We secure it from Colorado and occa- 
sionally from neighboring areas in Utah. Seed from this area is 
widely used throughout the entire United States. It seems to us 
that there is an extra punch and vigor in the growth of this Alfalfa. 
These higher altitudes are often.subject to early and late freezes 
that can be extremely damaging. The plants produced are strong, 
sturdy and they are heavy producers. If you could visit some of 
these areas you would be astounded at the Alfalfa 
produced. You can have this same kind of Alfalfa 
on your farm by ordering Lot Mountain. 
When you receive your shipment we guarantee that you 
will be delighted with the value in every way. That golden 
color of the plump berries indicates its strong germinating 
power. Examine it under a microscope if you wish. You'll 
find it 99 to 99.50 pure. You won’t find nicer seed at any 
price. We have limited supplies on which we can make an 
exceptionally attractive price. You can make a big saving 
on top quality seed by ordering Lot Mountain.

World Brand Arizona or California 
Many farmers in central and even northern states are using 
Alfalfa for soil building. It is easier to get stands of Alfalfa 
than Red Clover and it seems less subject to disease. The 
southwestern grown Alfalfas are widely used for this purpose. 
They are generally fast growers. Very often they can produce 
big hay crops the first year. This is often plowed under in the 
same fall. It adds a lot of humus and nitrogen. The cost of 
seeding is less than Red Clover. Most farmers will let the crop 
stand over one winter, then take off a hay crop or two and 
plow under the green growth. This Alfalfa from Arizona and 
California is not as hardy as more northern seed. It may not 
last as many years but in a short rotation it is becoming more 
and more widely used. The seed that we have for you is of 
beautiful quality. 
This Seed Comes to You Chemically Treated 
Last year we started chemically treating some of our Alfalfa 
seed on the basis of the results obtained at the Experiment Sta- 
tion. Every customer that has reported on it, says they got won- 
derful, vigorous stands. They say they will sow only chemically 
treated seeds in the future. See page 33 of this catalog for 
more information. You can get any lot of Alfalfa seed that we 
have chemically treated for 60c additional. but the price of Lot 
Western includes the chemical treatment. 
The price is over $15.00 a hundred less than the same quality 
of the Corn Belt Alfalfa. We made some very favorable con- 
tracts last fall so that we can give you this exceptional and 
outstanding value. 
Argentine Seed May Be Available 
We have in the past years sold large quantities of Argentine 
Alfalfa. Our customers like it. At the time of going to press 
with this catalog we do not have it on hand but chetk our pink 
price list. If it is priced there you can order, 
or order it at the price given for Western. 
Then if it is not available, permit us to 
substitute Western or some other item, 
otherwise your money can be refunded if 
that is preferred. Remember we guarantee 
perfect satisfaction on every shipment. You 
take no chances but you have the opportu- 
nity of making big savings at all times at 
Berry’s.
