HYBRID FIELD CORN 
“The final results of five years ’ work with 7 6 Experiments all over 
Ohio show Hybrids have yielded 10 to 20% more than open pollinated 
varieties. The most productive Hybrids have yielded 11 to 29% more 
than the most productive open pollinated kinds.” 
The above is partial report of table 36, page 30, of “Handbook of Exp. 
in Agronomy ” published by Ohio Experiment Station. 
HOOSIER HYBRID—Indiana Three Way Cross No. 060—Especially adapted 
to the fertile upland and second bottom soil of central and southern Ohio. The 
season is the same as for Eichelberger Clarage which is classed as an early mid¬ 
season variety. Our neighbors have been using this Hybrid for several years with 
around 15 to 20 per cent increase in yield over ordinary open pollinated kinds. 
SCARFF’S HYBRID (AxR4) (HYxTR)—This Hybrid is a double cross of 
Indiana lines that have been consistent, good yielders of excellent quality corn. 
They are probably used in more combinations, which proves their merit, than any 
other lines today. This variety is about the same season as Yellow Clarage and is 
especially adapted to the uplands of central and southern Ohio. 
Be sure of the Hybrid seed you plant. The high yield of any combination of 
inbred lines depends directly upon the lines themselves and the way in which they 
are used. Play safe and purchase seed only from reliable sources. The first genera¬ 
tion cross only produces the high yield along with stiffness of stalk and other desir¬ 
able characteristics. You can depend upon the Hybrids we offer. 
All of our Hybrid corn will be graded into two grades, large and medium, flat 
kernels, and two grades, large and medium, round kernels. The flat grains are 
for use in edge drop planters and the round for hill drop machines. The medium 
grains in each case will plant about 1 acre to 2 acres more than the large grains. 
There will be no difference in the productivity of either kind.

This new method of corn breed¬ 
ing bids fair to revolutionize com 
production methods. Bigger yields 
and better stalk characteristics 
than we ever thought possible are 
here now with Hybrid varieties. 
Test Hybrid Corn with your 
own variety. Try at least a small 
amount of Hybrid seed. See the 
advantages yourself. You cannot 
afford to ignore this progressive 
step in corn breeding. It is to 
your benefit in dollars gained. The 
supply is limited. Order today. 
As better Hybrids are intro¬ 
duced, ScarfT’s will have them.
