ALFALFA LICKS DROUGHT 
Like a friend who stands by you 
in time of trouble, alfalfa was 
as much appreciated during the 
past year as it was during the 
terrible droughts of the 30’s. 
Alfalfa has again stood the 
test of one of the worst 
droughts in history and has 
once more firmly estab- 
lished itself as the No. 1 
feed crop. This mighty 
legume, whose roots travel 
; far down in search of moisture, 
remains green and growing throughout the 
hottest and driest weather, yielding a good 
crop of one of the leafiest hays known. Farm- 
ers with alfalfa hay are not suffering from any 
feed shortage this season. 
Our Black Hills hardy alfalfa seed is dry land 
grown on the northern foothills of the Black 
Hills at elevations of from 3,000 to 4,500 feet. 
It is subjected to the most severe weather con- 
ditions possible, which by eliminating the weaker 
strains have produced the hardiest plants noted 
for their productivity and drought resistance. 
This seed is cleaned and sacked in branded bags 
at our cleaning plant and warehouses at Rapid 
City, South Dakota, and can always be identi- 
fied by the trademark shown above—your assur- 
ance of hardiness, high yielding ability and long 
life.
