widely used Alfalfa and sée for yourself the outstanding

Corn-Belt values. Available in four different grades (explained 
below), we sell several carloads of this seed every year. Hundreds 
of our satisfied customers demand Corn-Belt every year; proof of 
the performance and quality of this seed. 
Corn-Belt Alfalfa is available in four different grades, being separated 
largely according to berry size, color and purity: 

Our Pinnacle Brand is our very finest quality with only the largest, bright berries 
being used in this blend. Over 99% pure and very high germination. 
UNIVERSAL BRAND. 
Strictly fancy quality being difficult to distinguish from our top grade. Many dealers 
sell this grade for extra fancy quality. Nice bright seed. 
ECONOMY BRAND. Seed of somewhat different character, being slightly discolored, smaller in berry size and 
may contain some other crop seed. A big’ seller and really a remarkable value for seed of this type. 
UTILITY BRAND. Our lowest priced grade but don’t let the price fool you. Hundreds of our customers use 
our Lot “Grand” Alfalfa’ which is this same grade, with outstanding results. Smaller seed and not as fancy in 
appearance but a very popular seller; actually contains 15 to 20% more seed per pound.

As explained above, our Pinnacle Brand is 
our very best grade of Corn-Belt Alfalfa. We 
guarantee it to please every buyer who wants 
the best. Proven performance and outstand- 
ing quality make this grade our biggest seller 
in hardy Alfalfa. Many customers in the 
northern States of Minnesota, Wisconsin and 
Michigan use heavy yielding Corn-Belt Al- 
falfa with very satisfactory results. The 
growth is heavy with foliage similar to 
that of Dakota No. 12. We.believe that 
Corn-Belt will yield heavier than or equal to 
any other Alfalfa regardless of strain or 
origin under equal conditions. We absolutely 
guarantee that you will be pleased with the 
beautiful character of our Pinnacle Brand 
Corn-Belt. 
Plant Corn-Belt at about the same rate as 
any other Alfalfa—12 to 15 lbs. per acre is suf- 
ficient for good stands. We recommend_ it 
highly for ordinary rotation programs. We 
guarantee that you will save money—as much 
as $2.50 to $4.50 per bushel on seed of this type.

UNIVERSAL BRAND CORN-BELT ALFALFA 
FANCY QUALITY 
This grade of Corn-Belt Alfalfa actually qualifies as fancy qual< 
ity. It has a good color and appearance and is sold by many deal- 
ers as their top grade. Universal Brand has a high purity and good 
growing power. Just as hardy as our Pinnacle Brand yet priced to 
save you. $1.50 per bushel if you do not prefer our Pinnacle Brand. 
Actually the performance of our Universal Brand would probably 
be just as good as our best Alfalfa. The only real difference is color 
and that is only slight. When you compare our prices for this grade 
of seed you will find you can save up to $4.00 or $5.00 per bushel. 
Sold under our liberal guarantee (see Page 2). Sow at the same rate 
as other Alfalfa. We recommend inoculation for best results.

ECONOMY BRAND CORN-BELT ALFALFA 
A REAL ALFALFA BARGAIN 
Our Economy Brand is very popular with many of our customers. 
While it is not as fancy in appearance, it does make a very service- 
able seeding and will produce vigorous, healthy stands just the 
same as the fancier grades. Actually since the seeds are somewhat 
smaller, you get about 10 to 15% more seeds per pound. This grade, 
like all of our Alfalfa, has been carefully recleaned. There are some 
discolored seeds and the germination naturally is-not as high as our 
Pinnacle Brand but it does have good growing power. You practice 
real economy when you sow “Economy Brand” Corn-Belt Alfalfa. 
Because of the extremely low price many farmers use Economy 
Brand generously in pasture and hay mixtures and for reseeding 
thin stands. Sow 15 lbs. per acre. Rolling both before and after 
seeding is helpful in securing better stands. :
