ALFALFA 
ALFALFA SHOULD BE OCU 
CAUTION! 
| Beware of unadaptable alfalfa from 
such states as Arizona, New Mexico, 
Texas and California and from 
South Africa masquerading under 
such names as “High Altitude”, 
“Mountain Grown”, etc. Alfalfa 
seed that is quite unsuited to our 
climate is being offered here under 
various fancy names. It is a poor 
bargain at any price.

MARKET CONDITIONS 
— et 
The Farm Show last week in Harris- 
burg was highly successful. Retail 
prices were announced quite generally 
and farmers showed a keen interest in 
prevailing values. 
The local dealer can profit by letting 
his customers know just what is avail- 
able this spring and the prices. 
If it is customary for you to announce 
your spring prices by mail we remind 
you that the QUAKER Seed Chart 
(shown on the outside of this price 
list) will cheerfully be supplied in 
quantity for you to send out with your 
early announcement. How many can 
you use to advantage?
