Ohio Hybrid K-23 
(About 90 to 95 days) 
Pedigree: (26x51) X (65x84). Ohio K-23 is the 
most popular hybrid for the better soils in northern 
and central Pennsylvania, northern New Jersey, 
and parts of New York State. It has been recom¬ 
mended to replace Early Butler. The plants are 
short, very lodge-resistant, deep green, leafy, and 
have short shanks. Ears are low on the stalk, 
medium short and thick, and have 16 to 18 rows of 
average-sized grain. A very good high-yielding 
yellow Corn, the most popular and most desired 
early hybrid produced. 
Iowa Hybrid 939 
(About 100 to 105 days) 
Pedigree: (Os42().xOs426) X (L289xI205). This 
is, no doubt, the most versatile, popular, and widely 
known Hybrid from Nebraska to the Atlantic. It 
has a Lancaster Sure-Crop background and is 
adapted to the central and southern half of Penn¬ 
sylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland. The plants 
are medium tall with ears at medium height, each 
with 16 rows of medium-depth grain. Some farmers 
in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and in other 
longer growing areas like to plant it just late enough 
so that it will still mature. They say it has shown 
high-yielding ability in the Japanese beetle territory. | 
Ohio Hybrid W-17 
(About 100 to 110 days) 
Pedigree: (56.x4-8) X (51x84). This is adapted to 
areas similar to those where Iowa 939 thrives. It 
is also recommended for silage in some of the early 
Corn-producing areas. This Hybrid is especially 
suitable for farmers who desire to harvest their 
Corn with pickers since it has a strong shank. Its 
plants are leafy with short shanks; the ears are 
larger and thicker than Iowa 939 and have 16 to 18 
rows of grain. Many farmers are enthusiastic over 
this I lybrid. 
Illinois Hybrid 172 
(About 105 to 110 days) 
Pedigree: (R4xHy) X (Ax540). Slightly later 
than Iowa 939 and Ohio W-17. Its plants are 
medium tall. The ear is medium in length and 
thickness, smooth, and carries 18 to 2(1 rows of 
medium-depth grain. 
U. S. Hybrid 44 
(About 115 to 120 days) 
Pedigree: (187-2x4-8) X (Hyx540). This Hybrid 
is recommended for the most productive soils with 
a long growing season, and where high yields are 
desirable. It is especially recommended for that 
good Corn section of southern and southeastern 
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland. Its 
plants are short to medium in height and are very 
lodge-resistant. The ears are medium long and 
slender, very smooth, and carry 18 to 20 rows of 
grain. It has been the highest in tests and is recom¬ 
mended as one of the best Hybrids for silage. 
U. S. Hybrid 13 
(About 110 to 115 days) 
Pedigree: (WF9x38-]l) X (HyxL317). The latest 
yellow 1 lybrid listed. It has a Lancaster Sure-Crop 
background and is one of the highest-yielding 
hybrids for the richest and best-producing Corn 
soils. The plants are large, leafy, stiff-stalked, and 
the ears are long, large, with deep heavy grain. 
U. S. 13 gives the most promise of any Hybrid 
adapted to the best soil of Lancaster and Chester 
counties, Pennsylvania, and in Maryland and 
New Jersey.
