CERTIFIED HYBRID SEED CORN 
(NORTHERN ILLINOIS GROWN) 
Our Hybrids will be certified seed. This means that the inbred parentage has been grown under the 
inspection of the United States Department of Agriculture and the Crop Improvement Association of the Uni¬ 
versity of Illinois. They have checked the development of our inbreds over the last eleven years and have per¬ 
sonally inspected the crossing and isolation of the breeding plots. They have checked the performance of the 
Hybrid to check their adaptability in this section. Some Hybrids are not as good as open pollination corn and, 
no doubt, much humbug hybrid seed will be offered for sale. Unfortunately there are no laws protecting you. 
The certification work was undertaken to protect farmers of Illinois from swindle by unscrupulous producers. 
Hybrid Corn assures the grower of a larger yield, stronger stalk and root system; better quality grain, 
much more resistant to heat, cold, drought and various corn diseases. A good Hybrid Corn should give an in¬ 
creased yield of 20% over regular Corn. 1 lb., 45c; 3 lbs., $1.25. Write for description and prices on larger 
quantities.
