“The MORE HAY... 
the more cash in your pocket’”’ 
It's true either way—whether you sell hay, or feed every ton you 
produce, the important thing is to get the hay. Having it is what 
counts! How it helps offset feed bills! 
How costly can be the sad situation 
where the hay crop doesn’t come through. 
When weak growth hinders proper start- 
ing. When winter reverses take big freez- 
ing-out tolls. When weeds take over, to 
greatly reduce the grass crop. 
Your best insurance for quality-and- 
quantity hay is Hoffman PROVED- 
ABILITY seed. Strains that are right! 
Fifty years’ success on thousands of north- 
ern farms is the real evidence that Hoff- 
man seed does the job. 
Long-Lasting ALFALFA 
For nearly forty years, Hoffman 
“NORTHWEST” alfalfa seed has proved 
its exceptional merit. This year’s quality 
is excellent. Never any doubt about its 
background. Produced with care. In areas 
whose very climates breed hardiness. 
Often in high altitudes—extreme low tem- 
peratures—sudden weather changes. Its 
source verified by Government authori- 
ties. Each bag bears genuine U. S. tag. 
Always cleaned clean to highest freedom 
from noxious weeds. Tested and sound. 
New “BUFFALO” strain. Genuine Cer- 
tified seed. Carries strong recommenda- 
tion as highly resistant to bacterial wilt. 
Recovers rapidly after cut. Provides larger 
Hoffman GRIMM-type Alfalfa gains 
new users each year. Its specifications 
similar to above Northwest. Quality seed 
throughout. Limited amount of Certified 
Sealed Grimm available. Small supplies 
of KANSAS and CANADIAN seed. 
Good-Cropping CLOVERS 
Here is an unusual OPPORTUNITY 
for clover seed buyers. Genuine Certified 
“CUMBERLAND” strain of red clover 
seed. Big, plump, uniform, beautiful color. 
The disease-resistant type, see catalog. 
Investing only three to four extra cents 
a pound in this highly desirable seed 
could easily return many extra dollars— 
more loads of quality hay to put away. 
Here, too, is the high-stands REGULAR 
Hoffman RED CLOVER seed. Strictly 
top quality, too. And the MAMMOTH 
(Sapling ) taller-growing, one-crop clover. 
Hard-fighting ALSIKE Clover, smaller 
seeded, goes farther when sowing. Costs 
less. Dependable fighter through bad 
weather that often defeats other clovers. 
TIMOTHY seed supply draws nearer 
to exhaustion. Popular “ECONOMICAL 
MIXTURE” (about half Red Clover, 
quarter Alsike, quarter Timothy) saves 
something on seed bills. 
This is the year to put Ladino to work on your 
farm. Works pasture miracles. Rich in feed elements. 
Unequalled in carrying capacity. Read pages 6 and 7 
in Hoffman Catalog. Seed demand is tremendous. 
Order early. 
Seeds for most of the pasture grasses are costly 
this year. Crops were short. But figure this way: 
Even if seed is costly, isn’t it better to start now and 
get the pasture that your stock needs . . . than to 
wait another year, and maybe then fare no better on 
the cost feature? 
Because so many grass seeds are in such short 
supply this year, values on Rye Grass have increased 
steadily . . . demands for it have been enormous. No 
time like NOW to order every pound of Rye Grass 
seed you need this summer . . . for the corn field, 
orchard, potato patch, or elsewhere. 
Noticed right along is the increase in sales of 
Sudan grass seed. Sweet Sudan admirers are wisely 
engaging their seed. There can be no advantage in 
waiting to order seed—of any kind. There are no 
burdensome supplies of any item this year. 
On your order for Hoffman field seeds—include 
Sweet Corn seed for your garden. The ‘Golden 
Bounty,” “Golden Rocket’ (extra early), ‘Golden 
Cross Bantam” are grand-tasting hybrids. You'll enjoy 
eating them this summer. 
When ordering Funk G Hybrid seed corn . . . keep 
in mind that Round kernel seed saves you money. 
Specify it on your order. See Price List. Every Round 
kernel has exactly the same germ plasm, same ability 
to produce, same yield quality as any Flat kernel on 
the ear. Increasing numbers of folks are making this 
wise saving each season. Why not you? 
fall growth. Has a high-survival record. 
Expensive today because of limited sup- 
ply. Seems destined for wider use. 
FUNK G “‘S Star’ Hybrids 
provide extra corn-crop profits 
Get everything your hybrid-seed money can buy. All hybrids 
are far from being alike. The magic that went with the very 
word “hybrid” a dozen years ago is gone. Today’s top hybrids 
are top because they have the “extras” bred into them that are 
just not-within their-competitors. Ability to do many jobs better. 
Start off quicker. Stand up better. Fight off drought, insects, 
and disease more successfully. 
Funk G hybrids are bred to excel on those five points—and 
many others. They are outstanding today! Those traits work 
for you, from the day you plant Funk G seed . . . straight 
through to harvest. They add up to extra profit from your 
com crop. 
The ability bred into every 
Funk G hybrid, coupled with 
the vast Hoffman-Funk Proving 
program, provides you with top 
crop success, KNOWN-in-AD- 
VANCE! 
Wherever you farm com... 
in early, medium, or late sec- 
tions, there’s a known-perform- 
ing Funk G hybrid ready to 
work for you! One to mature 
good, sound ears to fill your crib. 
Another to provide extra ton- 
nage of nourishing ensilage. 
Plant Funk G hybrid seed this 
year for top returns from: every 
acre you put into corn. 

to start you right for a 
profitable crop at harvest 
Seed OATS 
Here’s another case of something good being made better— 
“Clinton Eleven,” an improvement on the original Clinton Oats. 
Now you get more 
uniform ripening. Less 
green, immature grains. 
Even height straw that 
stands up extra well. 
Does not shell out while 
waiting for harvest. 
You also get an extra 
good fighter against dis- 
eases that have over- 
come other good varie- 
ties. “Clinton Eleven” is 
a top performer in this 
respect. You get grain 
of high feed value, meaty 
kernel. And yieldability 
has been improved. Hoff- 
man “Clinton Eleven” 
seed is bound to please. 
Two other good varie- 
ties—the straight “Clin- 
ton” and “Ajax”—are in 
stock, and wanted by 
many folks who know 
their good performance 
records. See Price List.
