Iowa 939 Hybrid Seed 
Corn Certified Seed 
Tested in many Pennsylvania counties by Pennsylvania 
Experiment Station. 
A farmer should remember that it is all-important to plant 
only such Hybrids as are adapted to his locality. We tell you 
which. You must be careful also as there are good Hybrids 
and bad ones; therefore, do not plant a Hybrid simply because 
it is a Hybrid. The only reason for planting a Hybrid is the 
possibility of an increase of from 10 to 25 per cent more bushels 
to the acre. However, we recommend, as does Dr. Noll, of 
State College, that you try a bushel or more in comparison 
with the Corn you are now growing. If it outyields it next 
year, plant more or all of it. 
Another advantage of Hybrid Corn is stiffer stalks, prac¬ 
tically no barren stalks, fewer nubbins, and strength and root 
system to stand in storms when open-pollinated varieties may 
go down. 
«e safe, order Iowa 939 Hybrid. If State College does not 
recommend it for your vicinity, we will advise you and tell you 
which of the five Hybrids suits your location.
