MASTER HYBRID CORN 
WHY PLANT HYBRID CORN? 
• Stiff stalks—large roots—hold it straight in 
wind or hail—thus easier picking by hand or 
machine. 
• A vigorous grower under good or poor soil 
and weather conditions. 
• It yields 10 to 20 bushels MORE per acre. 
© Stalks stay green after corn is ripe. 
• You can grow more and better corn on fewer 
acres.

Minnesota Hybrids 
Developed by the Minnesota 
Experiment Station 
Minhybrid No. 301— ( 10 daVs 10 ) 
A popular yellow hybrid developed by cross¬ 
ing an early Minnesota No. 13 single cross with 
Reid’s Yellow Dent. It matures about the same 
time as Golden Jewel, Silver King and Minne¬ 
sota Ideal and is adapted to southern Minnesota 
and Wisconsin, northern Iowa, southern South 
Dakota, and similar localities. 
It has a very stiff stalk and strong root sys¬ 
tem. It grows tall, producing large, well filled 
ears. The stalks remain green after the corn 
is ripe. 
Minhybrid No. 301 will produce 10 to 15 more 
bushels per acre than open pollinated kinds. 
Minhybrid No. 401— ( 95 D Ays°) 
Developed from a cross between Early Minne¬ 
sota No. 13, yellow and Rustler White Dent. 
Medium in height, leafy, producing a good sized 
ear of mixed yellow and white color. Yields 
have averaged 20% more than open pollinated 
kinds of the same maturity. It ripens in 95 to 
100 days and is adapted to central parts of 
Minnesota, Wisconsin and South Dakota and may 
be grown farther south where early ripe corn 
is desired. 
Minhybrid No. 402—( 8 &°y?) 
An extra early hybrid of mixed yellow and 
white color developed from the same parent va¬ 
rieties as Minhybrid No. 401, the plants being 
slightly smaller and about five days earlier in 
maturity. The yield is about the same as Min¬ 
hybrid No. 401, being 15% to 20% higher than 
open pollinated corn. It is adapted to north 
central Minnesota, Wisconsin, northern South 
Dakota and southern North Dakota. 
Minhybrid No. 403— ( 10 DA°ys 10 ) 
This latest development of the Minn. Experi¬ 
ment Station, is the result of combining two 
early maturing inbred lines from Minnesota 13 
with two late inbred lines from Reid’s Yellow 
Dent. 
It matures about the same time as Golden 
Jewel, Early Murdock, Silver King, and Minhy¬ 
brid 301, and is adapted to southern Minnesota 
and Wisconsin, northern Iowa and southern 
South Dakota and similar territories. This pure 
yellow hybrid has very fine standing ability and 
will outyield open pollinated kinds by 10% to 
20%. It produces a long, smooth dent, 16 to 
20-rowed ear of very high quality grain. The 
stalks tend to remain green long after the ear is 
ripe, and the plant shows marked resistance to 
smut.

Master Hybrid No. 2 (do?,) 
Originated, by Our Oivn Corn Breeder 
A yellow hybrid of Golden Jewel and Reid’s 
\ ellow Dent parentage. High yielding and re¬ 
sistant to disease, it has a 16 to 20 rowed ear 
with deep kernels. Very strong root system. Ma¬ 
tures with Murdock; stalks remain green after 
the ears are ripe. Adapted to southern Minnesota 
Wisconsin, South Dakota and northern Iowa.

You' ve Had a Lucky Year— I 
Don’t Gamble in 1939 / 
The 1938 Corn Crop finished on “bor¬ 
rowed time, ’ ’ and hundreds of farmers 
can thank their “lucky stars’’ for a 
mature crop! Getting off to a late start, 
a September frost would have ruined this 
crop. Many bought hybrids not safe for 
their section. Don’t gamble—plant Min¬ 
nesota-grown Master Hybrids, adapted 
to your section.

90-Day Master Hybrid near Grand Rapids, Minn. 
Wisconsin Hybrids 
Developed by the Wisconsin 
Experiment Station 
Wisconsin 85 Day Hybrid 
A new all-yellow hybrid of exceptionally 
early maturity. Adapted to central and 
western North Dakota, northern Minnesota 
and northern Wisconsin. Also a splendid 
’•ariety for early hogging off in more south¬ 
ern sections. It matures about the same time 
as Wis. 25 and Haney’s Minn. 13. Has all 
the Hybrid advantages such as increased 
yield, greater standing ability, and stalks 
that stay green after corn is ripe. 
Wisconsin 90 Day Hybrid 
Gives very fine results in northern Minne¬ 
sota and Wisconsin and North Dakota. It 
also may be grown in central Minnesota and 
Wisconsin where an early maturing variety 
is desired. Very high yielding and superior 
to ordinary corn. It produces a sturdy me¬ 
dium-sized plant carrying ears well filled 
with pure yellow kernels. 
Wisconsin 95 Day Hybrid 
Adapted to central and north central Wis¬ 
consin and Minnesota, northern South Dakota 
and the southern part of North Dakota. This 
early yellow variety has produced as high as 
80 bushels per acre. Ideal for main crop in 
northern and central sections, and for early 
hogging off in southern sections. 
Wisconsin 100 Day Hybrid 
A yellow hybrid adapted to central Wis¬ 
consin, central Minnesota and South Dakota 
and outyields Central Minnesota No. 13, 
Early Golden Glow, Rustler White Dent and 
other similar varieties. In those sections 
where Minhybrid No. 301 seems late, the 
Wisconsin 100-Day Hybrid should be very 
satisfactory. 
Wisconsin 105 Day Hybrid 
May be grown in south central Wisconsin, 
southern Minnesota and in the southern part 
of South Dakota. This pure yellow hybrid 
ripens a little earlier than Minhybrid No. 
301. It yields well, resists lodging, and 
matures evenly. 
Wisconsin 110 Day Hybrid 
A fine yellow hybrid for southern parts of 
Minnesota, Wisconsin, South Dakota and 
northern parts of Iowa, Illinois and Nebraska. 
It is just a few days later than Minhybrid 
No. 301. It has remarkable standing ability, 
is very uniform and extra high yielding.
