THE NEW STRAINS OF ALFALFA 
Plant-research men have come through in recent 
years with several impoved Alfalfa strains, including: 
BUFFALO Alfalfa (Certified) 
A strain highly resistant to bacterial wilt, one of 
America’s most serious Alfalfa diseases. Bred to sur- 
vive and yield well in spite of this enemy. Originated 
in Kansas. Shows more rapid recovery after cutting 
than ordinary strains, larger fall growth, and a higher 
stand of survival. 
Buffalo seed supply is limited. Quick orders urged. 
This strain is recommended for trial throughout most 
of this area. It may prove ideal for your conditions. 
Has already won many friends. Seems destined for 
wide use. 
RANGER Alfalfa (Certified) 
A multiple-strain development from selections of 
Cossack, Turkestan and Ladak varieties. Started in 
Nebraska. About equal, but not superior, to Grimm 
in winter hardiness and in ability to recover after 
cutting. Its outstanding trait is the resistance shown 
to attacks of bacterial wilt. Not as popular as Buf- 
falo here in the East. Preferred on some New York 
State and other Northern farms. 
ATLANTIC Alfalfa (Certified) 
Developed by New Jersey. Not as wilt re- 
sistant as Buffalo or Ranger. Adapted to 
short rotations. Existing seed supply small. 
Order instantly.
