HARDY STRAINS TO FIT INTO YOUR 
ONE-SEASON OR MANY-YEAR PLANS 
“GRIMM-Type” Alfalfa 
(U. S. Verified Origin) 
Some Hoffman patrons prefer this type 
of seed. It is produced in relatively the 
same areas from which Hoffman “North- 
west” seed is secured. 
A consistent producer of good crops 
. . . always classed among the leaders in 
hardy alfalfa. “Grimm” is tough; able to 
withstand wide weather extremes, espe- 
cially in the North and at high altitudes. 
Crowns seem to set low, and roots often 
branch out to afford much protection . . . 
seems to pull through many winters that 
are hard on other alfalfa. Here is strictly 
top-quality, high-producing, clean seed 
. . stocks are not large . . . order quickly. 
Certified ‘“GRIMM” 
Every bag is under supervision of its State 
Department from the field to you. It is 
sealed at the thresher, checked and re- 
sealed at every cleaning operation. De- 
mands a premium with its assured genuine- 
ness. If in stock, see Price List. 

“BUFFALO” Alfalfa (Certified) 
A strain highly resistant to bacterial wilt 
. .. bred to survive and yield well in spite 
of unfavorable plant diseases, climate, and 
soils in this area. Developed by U.S.D.A. 
and Kansas Experiment Station. Shows 
more rapid recovery after cutting, larger 
fall growth, and a higher stand of survival. 
“Buffalo” alfalfa may well be worth its 
high seed cost on your farm. If you've 
had alfalfa troubles recently, suggest you 
try it. Maybe you’e interested in some- 
thing new, to see if it’s better than what 
you now use. “Buffalo” already has many 
strong boosters—will earn many more. 
KANSAS and CANADIAN 
Alfalfa seed from these sources is in very 
short supply. If your preference would be 
for one of these strains, please name your 
second choice when ordering. Just in case 
your first selection would be sold. 
Inoculate ... Always! 
Neglect of proper inoculation helps cause 
alfalfa crop failures. Inoculation gives 
alfalfa extra vigor .. . the boost it needs 
for a head start in the race with weeds. 
Pays dividends 
not only from better 
alfalfa crops, but also extra dividends 
from better crops that follow on that soil. 
Increases protein content of alfalfa hay. 
Cost is low .. . its crop insurance 
value high. Order Hoffman _ Inoculant 
with your seed—apply just before sowing. 

Feed Legumes, Too 
Except for nitrogen needs, there’s not much 
difference in the plant food requirements of 
five years of alfalfa or Ladino and five years 
of continuous corn. Few men would think of 
growing corn continuously without yearly ap- 
plications of fertilizer . . . why do many expect 
legumes and grasses to keep right on producing.
