SOME INTERESTING PHOTOGRAPHS 
Left: This shows a detasseling crew 
at work on one of our Milford 
farms. You will see that they 
have removed the tassels from 3 
of every 4 rows, and the pollen 
from the fourth row pollenates 
the entire field. This is how 
hybrid sweet corns are produced. 
Right: Mr. L. S. Kimble of 
Beverley, N. J., sends us 
this photograph of himself 
in his field of Tendergold 
Hybrid Corn. He is very 
enthusiastic about the high 
quality and exceptional yield 
of this hybrid. 
Extreme Right: This shows a 
row of sweet corn in our 
trial grounds, where we are 
continually experimenting. 
The white bag covers an ear, preventing pollen from any other 
plant reaching the ear. Nearly 300 varieties and crosses were 
grown in our 1934 trials.
