Hybrid Corn made a wonderful showing the past 
season producing fine crops where ordinary corn was

almost a failure.. 
HYBRID CORN will yield from 10 to 30 percent 
over ordinary varieties, this is due to practically ev¬ 
ery stalk producing a large, well developed ear, prac¬ 
tically no barren stalks or nubbins. 
HYBRID CORN has a wonderfully strong root sys¬ 
tem. It will stand up where ordinary varieties lodge. 
This feature alone is worth many times what it costs 
to plant Hybrid Corn; this corn is remarkably free 
from smut and root and ear rot. 
HYBRID CORN grows strong and vigorous even in 
dry seasons. The stalks and leaves remain green until 
the ear is ripe.

Plant Good Hybrid Corn 
We make a specialty of growing- Hybrid Corn and use every 
precaution to produce a high quality product. 
All of our Hybrid Corn is grown on our own farms from seed 
that is supplied to us by the Wis. Experiment Station. Our 
fields are isolated to prevent mixtures and the crops are at all 
times under tire supervision of the Wis. Exp. Station. All of 
this corn was harvested early, fire-dried, carefully graded and 
is very high in germination. 
When you purchase Hybrid Corn grown in Wis. you have 
every assurance of receiving a very superior product as all of 
the parent strains are grown and tested by the Wis. Exp. Sta¬ 
tion before being released to growers; the crops are inspected 
several times during the season and before the seed can be 
offered for sale it is tested for germination and also must be 
properly graded. 
Our Hybrid Corn has passed all of these requirements and 
in lots of 1 pk. or more is put up in state sealed bags. 
Not All Hybrid Corn is Good 
The value of Hybrid Corn depends entirely on how the in- 
breds were selected and crossed and how carefully the detas- 
seling was done in the crossing fieldis. Unless this work is 
properly done poor results will be had from planting such seed. 
The state of Wisconsin has, very wisely, set up very strict 
regulations on Hybrid Corn and as a result Wis. Certified Hy¬ 
brid Corn is considered to be very superior. All of our Hybrid 
Corn is grown on our own farms under the supervision of the 
State of Wis., and meets with all their requirements as to 
purity, germination and grading.
