Ten Reasons Why You Should Plant 
PROF. HANSEN'S SIBERIAN COSSACK ALFALFA 
1. It is the hardiest alfalfa known; 2. A better soil builder than other alfalfa; 
3. More drought resistant; 4. Will make a big crop of hay in a dry season when 
others fail; 5. Has a double root system, both branched and deep; 6. Makes finer 
quality hay; 7. Will yield more hay per acre no matter what the weather condi- 
tions are; 8. Freezing does not kill young plants, neither does it kill or injure 
the growing hay; 9. Requires less seed per acre than other varieties; 10. Hogs 
do not kill it out for pastures, as they do other strains. COSSACK, the World’s 
Finest Alfalfa. Means more hay and a longer lasting stand. Purity 99 per

CORN EVERY YEAR 
Instead of taking a year or two to raise a soil-building crop, plant 10 lbs. of 
Arizona or California, reasonable priced alfalfa seed per acre in your corn field 
after last cultivation. Have a heavy knee-high crop of alfalfa to turn under 
just before you plant corn on the same ground next spring. 1. You build up 
soil fertility; 2. Grow corn every year; 3. Double the yield of corn per acre.

HUBAM ANNUAL SWEET CLOVER 
CHAMPION SOIL BUILDER 
Hubam Annual Sweet Clover is becoming more and more important to the 
farm rotation plan as the importance of the green manure crop becomes better 
realized. It produces a heavy top growth the first year, improves the soil, and 
makes an excellent beef pasture. Farmers report 10 to 25 per cent increase 
in corn and grain yields per acre after plowing under Hubam Clover. For 
quick grazing and soil improvements, plant 12 pounds of Hubam Clover seed 
per acre with your oats, wheat, or barley. You can harvest a grain crop and 
then plow your Clover without danger of volunteer stands in following crops.
