Suggest you carefully appraise the remaining life in your alfalfa 
acreage. When figuring on seeding its replacement, or other new 
acres, here are proven strains of top quality alfalfa... at low 
cost .. . ready to go to work for you: 
On thousands of farms in the East and North, Hoffman-Quality 
“Northwest” brand seed has provided heavy cuttings from long- 
lasting stands. Seed from states of the Rocky Mountain area or 
similar cold sections. Seed from robust, sturdy parent plants .. . 
rugged enough to endure exceptionally tough winters, short sea- 
sons, and other adverse conditions of those areas. A U. S. Veri- 
fied-Origin tag on every bag shows the state in which seed was 
grown. 
This seed is from strains known to be dependable heavy yield- 
ers of quality hay. Clean, thrifty stands, 4, 5 years and older, 
have not been unusual. Large, vigorous root systems are pro- 
duced to resist cold winters, and to send up prolific growth in 
the summers. . . . You are protected by the rigid Hoffman re- 
quirements of quality, purity and growth. 
Preferred by some folks. Produced in relatively the same areas 
that provide Hoffman “Northwest” seed. Consistent producer, 
classed among the leaders in hardy alfalfa. “Grimm” is tough; 
able to withstand wide weather extremes, especially in the North 
and at high altitudes. Crowns seem to set low, and roots often 
branch out. Pulls through many winters that are hard on other 
alfalfa. Here is strictly top quality, high-producing, clean seed.
