An immense yielder of beautiful golden yellow corn. It is 
about a week later than Iowa 931, and is suitable for planting 
anywhere in eastern Nebraska and south of the two north 
tiers of counties in Iowa. 939 has outyielded open pollinated 
corn from 5 to 15 bushels per acre.

MINHYBRID 301 
STATE CERTIFIED 
A heavy yielding, early, yellow hybrid, suitable for planting 
in the south one-fourth of Minnesota, southeastern South 
Dakota, and the west half of Nebraska. 
In the 1937 Minnesota corn tests. Minhybrld 301 out- 
yielded Murdock 10 bushel per acre, and contained nearly 
5% less moisture than Murdock at picking time. 
It costs about 50c more per acre to plant Hybrid than 
other corn. Ten bushel of corn for 50c, makes Minhybrid 
301 a real bargain. 
Prices for Edge Drop Grade: 1 lb., 20c; 5 lbs., 85c; 
J4 bu., $1.80; Zz bu., $3.45; 1 bu., $6.75. 
A GOOD HYBRID 
STATE CERTIFIED 
This large, medium early Hybrid yellow corn is a winner for 
northern Iowa, southeastern South Dakota, and northeastern 
Nebraska. 
In test plots and also under regular field conditions, it has 
been at or near the top of the list. 
In 1937, at Sioux Falls, South Dakota, tests were made 
under the supervision of the County Agent; Iowa 931 yielded 
96 bushels per acre. We know that Iowa 931 is a good Hybrid 
—a. corn that is almost certain to outyield your best open 
pollinated corn from 5 to 20 bushel per acre. 
I believe every farmer should plant at least one or two 
bushels of Hybrid corn for trial. If it is better, you want to 
know it and take advantage of it. 
Hybrid seed corn costs more than common seed corn to 
produce, and will always be fairly expensive. We are offering 
it as low as good Hybrid seed corn can be produced. 
Prices for Edge Drop Grade: 1 lb., 20c; 5 lbs., 75c; 
J4 bu., $1.55; y 2 bu., $2.85; 1 bu., $5.40. 
$1.00 A BUSHEL DOWN PAYMENT WILL HOLD ANY HYBRID CORN UNTIL YOU ORDER IT SHIPPED. 
Years of experimenting by Agricultural Colleges, Seed Houses, and by farmers, has proved that good Hybrid Corn, suitable for your locality, 
is vastly superior to the best open pollinated corn. 
Hybrid Corn, with its vigorous root system, will stand erect when other corn is blown flat. It will make a good crop when drouth seriously 
injures open pollinated corn. It will produce more bushels and dollars per acre than the best of the common corn. 
Every farmer should give Hybrid Corn a good trial. It is better and you should take advantage of it.
