SCARFF’S ALFALFA SEED FOR BETTER MEADOWS 
Ranger Alfalfa Seed ee ‘ 
Hardy as Grimm — Bacterial Wilt Resistant 
Ranger is composed of five selections from Cossack, 
Turkestan and Ladak Alfalfa. It is most valuable be- 
cause of its resistance to bacterial wilt which causes 
low yields in most of our common kinds. You profit 
not only in the long life of your stand but also by in- 
creased yields. The price of Ranger is much lower than 
last year and you certainly should not hesitate to sow this 
fine variety. Price, per bu., $34.00; per 12 bu., $18.00; per 1/4 
bu., $10.00. 
Buffal lfalf e-

line of Kansas common by close breeding and selection 
to develop bacterial wilt resistance, a characteristic most 
important for maintaining good stands over many years. 
Some fields of Buffalo have stood after common varieties 
have been completely destroyed by the disease. It is 
especially adapted to the central Alfalfa belt of which we 
are a part. The most reasonable cost of all Alfalfa seed 
this year certainly makes these new kinds most economi- 
cal. Price, per bu., $35.00; per 1 bu., $18.00; per V4 bu., 
$10.00 
ATLANTIC ALFALFA 
A Blend of Many of the Best Strains 
Atlantic Alfalfa has been thoroughly tested over all of 
the Alfalfa growing area since 1940 and has proven most 
satisfactory. It is recommended over all of Ohio. 
Agricultural Research Administration U. S. D. A., 
Beltsville, Maryland, says, “It is probable that the 
variety’s outstanding performance under a wide 
range of growing conditions is a direct result of 
the large number of plant types which entered 
into its ancestry.” This is a good one. Try it. 
Price per bushel, $44.00. 
Grimm Alfalf: 
Grimm Alfalfa See 
is beyond doubt 
one of the hardiest types of Alfalfa. Its root sys- 
tem is of the spreading type and resists pulling 
better than most kinds. It has been very su- 
perior to the common varieties in Ree and in 
the life of the field. Price, per bu., $28.00; per 12 
bu., $15.00; per 14 bu., $8.00.

so strong, stems are finer and it produces a more

than white and pre- 
ferred on many 
farms. Price, per bu.,

legume that is cheap

This clover is one of the most valuable addi- 
tions to your clover seedings especially if you 
want to pasture your meadow. It grows larger 
than white clover, produces an enormous amount 
of foliage that is most nutritious for all live stock. 
The seed is very small and is very easy to grow.

your mixture per acre. Many poultry growers 
use it on their chicken ranges where it has been 
of special value. It should be included in any 
mixture used to thicken your old pasture. Price 
per Ib., $1.25. 
Treat all legume seed with Nitragin, page 49, be- 
fore sowing. A cheap insurance that generally pays 
well in thicker stands.
