“MOHAWK” (Certified) 
Dependable, heavy-yielding strain “™ 
—gaining new friends. Closely related 
to “Clinton,” having much the same de- 
sirable characteristics. Developed in New 
York . . . has done very well there and in 
Northern Pennsylvania. Highly recom- 
mended. Resistant to leaf blotch and 
blight, crown and stem rust. Exceptionally 
stiff straw . . . can be left standing until 
fully ripe with little risk of going down. 
Produces fine oats crops. 
“AJAX” (Certified) 
Heavy yielding, tall straw, average matur- 
ing, originated in Canada. Has desirable 
straw stiffness. Has made good crops in 
spite of attacks by stem rust, leaf blotch, 
blight and crown rust. Has been a good 
yielder in Penn State tests for a number 
of years. Consistently one of the top yield- 
ers in New Jersey tests; in 1946 topped 
the list there, yielding 8.6 bushels more 
per acre than its closest competitor. 
“Ajax” should enjoy wider popularity. 
Here is true type, heavy, well-cleaned seed. 













“CHEAPER SEED?’ 
Sure, there's always cheaper seed . . . 
same as clothing, canned goods, or 
anything else. But—don’t you usually 
get just about what you pay for? 
Hoffman is a seed concern whose 
all-year-round ‘‘living’’ depends on 
how well its patrons are served. Best 
sources are searched out—strains that 
are KNOWN performers. Seed you 
buy here is not a “side line” or a 
“profit overnight” article. It’s the LIFE 
BLOOD of a going business—it must be 
right! And has been for over 50 years!
