The 

ALFALFA  SITUATION 


Crop  Late.  Considerable  damage 
done  by  grasshoppers.  Supplies 
appear  very  short  at  this  time. 

Oklahoma 

Crop  fair  and  quality  excellent. 
Very  active  trade  should  develop 
on  account  of  great  discount  below 
Kansas  seed. 

■  -  I  - 

Northwestern 

Stocks  of  Utah,  Idaho,  Montana, 
Wyoming  and  Minnesota  seed  are 
completely  exhausted.  No  new 
crop  available  until  later  in  Sep¬ 
tember. 

Canadian 

The  only  genuinely  hardy  north¬ 
ern  grown  seed  available  at  this 
time.  We  can  highly  recommend 
it  as  substitute  for  Northwestern 
domestic.  Canadian  is  eligible  for 
all  premiums  paid  under  the  Soil 
Conservation  Act.
