The word
farmers love
to spread
“There is no better way to start an
alfalfa field The cows not only Hked it,
they inhaled it Tm pleased with the
way my cows milked on it”
Walter Clutter, Jr., Shippenville, PA
Good words about TRIPPER II are cropping up all over. The
high-quality forage blend that can double first cutting yields.
It’s an excellent companion crop for your preferred Agway
alfalfa variety. Even in late summer you’ll be getting greener,
leafier alfalfa—for even higher milk production. There’s only
one TRIPPER 11 and only one place to get it: your Agway,
Andgrow or Reading-Bone Salesperson. Call today.
