To our farm friends: \ enexaeoneaonans iit 
Why do so many 'particular' farmers...the folks who take a real 
pride in their fields...prefer Hoffman Seeds and Funk G Hybrids? 
One friend locks at seed-buying this way: 
"T consider myself as a manufacturer. My farm is 
my plante My family and I the stockholders. The 
fertilizer, the lime, and the seed are my raw materials. 
I have two aims in my business. I want to produce 
a good-quality product. And a profit in return for our 
labors. 
I know that if my raw materials are not right to 
start with, crops are going to disappoint use We stock- 
holders will have to suffer, because of less dividends. 
That's why I depend on Hoffman Seeds. They help our 
farming operations show good profits - year after year." 
That is our mission here = doing whatever we can to furnish better 
seeds to help our customers grow bigger, better-paying crops. Crops 
that outshine those on neighboring farms. 
What can we do for you this spring? Command us with your seed-order 
nowe Thank youl

SEED OATS bred to grow 
profitable crops for you 
Plant oat-strains that yield MORE bushels. An extra 6, 8, or 
10 bushels from each acre counts fast! It’s a profit you might 
as well get. Let these strains help you: 
“CLINTON ELEVEN” (Certified seed) 
Most popular, leading producer on many hundreds of 
eastern and northern farms. For past several years has made 
higher yields than the original Clinton and other varieties of 
equal ability. ‘Clinton Eleven” is a great fighter against dis- 
eases that used to take heavy tolls. Tillers well. Good strong 
straw. Does not shatter. Ripens in good time. Thin hulled. 
Meaty kernel. Makes fine feed. Carries the combination of 
good traits that make real crops .. . year after year. (‘’Clin- 
ton 11” is also offered in non-certified seed of fine quality 
too, at lower cost.) 
This ‘Clinton Eleven” strain has been making those EXTRA 
bushels — year after year. Is recommended for your use this 
spring. Order it today. Start right for an extra-good oats crop 
this harvest. 
“AJAX” (Certified seed) 
Another splendid strain. Gaining more users right along. 
Dependable for good yields. Has stood up fine against many 
disease attacks. Please refer to Catalog for full details on 
both above and other varieties. All are of fine quality. Priced 
bag-free and freight-paid.
