I Were A Farmer— 
—I would remember that 54 years of corn breeding has 
taught Northrup, King & Co. the earliness requirements of all 
sections of the North Central States. 
—I would keep in mind that Northrup, King & Co. was among 
the first commercial organizations to start Hybrid Com Breed¬ 
ing—they began in 1922. 
—I would also keep in mind that Northrup, King & Co. was 
one of the first producers to distribute hybrids in the North 
Central States—starting in 1931. 
—I would attach importance to the fact that Northrup, King 
& Co.'s corn department personnel includes men having long 
and varied experience in seed corn breeding, growing and 
drying^ 
—I would insure myself of best average corn crop over a 
period of years by planting two or three different maturity 
Hybrids each year. 
If I Were A Farmer— 
I Would Consider What Kingscrost 
Has Been Doing For Farmers— 
—E. C. Davis, St. Peter, Minn./—His patrons had handsome 
increases in yield and profits last year. Five to 25 bushels 
increase per acre. Drought and wind resistant. 
—E. T. Ebbesen, Prop. Minnesota Hatchery, Revere, Minn. 
—We operate 640 acres of land here this year. We have ap¬ 
proximately 65 acres of your Minnesota No. 13 Kingscrost 
Hybrid Corn and wish to tell you that it is the finest corn I 
have ever seen. It has two ears on a big percentage of the 
stalks and some have three ears that are going to get fully 
matured. 
—John B. Sills, manager Canton Elevator Co., Canton, Minn. 
In 1936 it was proven to me that Kingscrost Hybrid was a 
superior seed corn for a dry season. 
—Arne Rotnem, Mabel, Minn.—Kingscrost will stand against 
the wind better, yield more corn and make better silage. 
—Louis Lippold, Graettinger, Iowa—I have three different 
hybrids, and Kingscrost is so far ahead of the other two 
hybrids in maturity, ear conformation, and I am sure of yield, 
that next year I am planting only Kingscrost.
