SOUTHERN HYBRID CORN 
Wins Its Spurs 
Another milestone in southern agriculture has 
been reached. By using new methods o£ 
planting, by proper tillage and fertili¬ 
zation technique, and by using 
SOUTHERN HYBRID seed, it 
is now possible for the south- 
ern planter to grow 
normal corn belt 
crops of corn. In 
hundreds of 
cases this .year, by using 
this new technique 
southern planters 
have increased their 
corn yields tremendously 
over the average yield of corn 
for their territory. Corn is becom¬ 
ing an increasingly more important 
crop in the South and anyone who devotes 
acreage to it should acquaint himself with the 
latest and most improved methods of growing corn.

Gentlemen; 
We raised about 45 bushels to the acre on top hUl. It was never 
chopped. There was almost a corn crop failure on adjoining farms. I 
believe in ii so much I intend to plant some next year. This is the best 
hill corn we have had in many years. We take pleasure in recommnding 
it to other farmers. 
Yours truly,

Yours of the 14th received and will say that the Hybrid corn is not 
only the best drought resistant corn we have ever planted, hut it is the 
most prolific. We find that it stood up under the drought better, can 
leave it closer in the drill and is the earliest maturing corn we had. 
All in all I believe it is the surest bet for a corn crop of any corn we 
have ever planted. 
Yours very truly, 
Wilmont Plantation
