calmed with tranquilizers This is
the result of reasearch conducted
at Colorado State University In
tests, 25 cc’s of tranquilizer in
jected into the muscle tissue kept
the cow quiet for about 24 hours

become dopey resulting in less

production After using the drug
on cows for about 4 months, there
was no noticeable effect on either

BE SURE YOU SELECT THE BRAND THAT
CONSISTENTLY EXCEEDS REQUIREMENTS
DON’T BE FOOLED All certified seed is not alike.
Year after year, A. H. Hoffman Seeds, Inc.—the largest
producer of “Certified” winter grains in Pennsylvania
—exceeds the state certification standards for quality
by a wide margin.
FOR EXAMPLE;
Pennsylvania Certification
Requirements for Wheat
SS.O'c (minimum) PURITY
I.o'c (maximum) INERT MATTER
9C.0% (minimum) GERMINATION 94.00% 93.00%
58 lbs. (minimum) WT. PER BU. 62.2 lbs. 62.0 lbs.
This explains why farmers who plant Hoffman Seeds
consistently get better results —bigger, better, cleaner
crops . . . why the blue certification tag alone is not
enough. The lew cents more you may pay for Hoffman
seeds bring back many extra dollars in bigger crops. For
sixty years, Hoffman has served the farmers of Penn
sylvania with dependable seeds.
