" 1 * w 1 ^ maturing between Woodburn and Yellow 
Clarage. The stalks are medium height with blades very green in 
color. The ears are, as you note in cut, placed well at about the right 
height for easy hand husking and has tendency to produce more than 
one good ear to the stalk. The ears are medium size, smooth with 18 
to 20 rows. It has an exceptionally good root system and thus is very 
lodge resistant. Ill. 172 is adapted over a wide area and is a depend¬ 
able Hybrid. 
INDIANA fitd —Probably this Hybrid is better known and 
grown on more farms than any other in Ohio. 
It has a wide range of adaptability and it carries lots of foliage, is 
an ideal general purpose Hybrid. Equally as good for the silo as for 
husking. The fodder is of medium height with medium length ears 
having 18 to 20 rows of medium 
deep grains. Indiana 614 is es¬ 
pecially adapted to heavy soils 
because of its quick response to 
soil fertility. We are sure you 
will like this Hybrid. 
OHIO L 31 sTff-, “ 
maturing Hybrid we offer, it is 
not too late for central and 
south central Ohio. L 31 will 
mature with Lancaster Sure Crop 
and Reids Yellow Dent. It pro¬ 
duces large leafy fodder and 
wonderful long, good grain ears 
carrying 16 to 18 rows of me¬ 
dium depth kernels. Very easy to 
husk. Altho it is just about the 
right size and season for an ideal 
silo Hybrid, it also will make 
an abnormally heavy yield of 
grain in adapted areas.

Departments of Agricultural Engineering and Agronomy, Ohio Agricultural 
Experiment Station and Ohio State University Make this Statement 
Concerning Round or Irregular Grains 
“Since hybrid seed corn is both expensive and valuable, and the ker¬ 
nels on the different parts of each hybrid seed ear have similar hered¬ 
itary qualities, seed of com hybrid is generally marketed in three or 
four grades—large flats, medium flats, and rounds (large and medium). 
The round or irregular kernels are capable of producing at least as high 
yields as the flat kernels. The only difficulty involved in using them 
is getting a fairly even drop with the regular planter plates; however, 
planter plates can be secured from the manufacturer which will drop 
round or irregular shaped kernels with a satisfactory degree of accuracy.”
