Scarff’s Ohio Hybrids Are Always Dependable 
U C This Hybrid is practically of the 
• id* Od same season as Illinois 172 or 
just a little later than Iowa 939 and W17. Very 
stiff erect stalk, ears good sized and placed me¬ 
dium height. U. S. 65 makes a fine upland Hybrid. 
In the Belmont and Paulding Experiment farm tests 
it ranked first in yield over all Ohio Hybrids in 
1937 and in all other places tested it was well to 
the top. This is true not only in Ohio but was also 
a leader clear across the corn belt. The grains are 
smooth and shank small, making it nice to husk, 
either by hand or with husker.

U Q This Hybrid is one of medium season as area table 
• d* dia indicates. Its stalks are tall and very lodge resistant. 
The ears are smooth, of medium length and thickness with 18 to 20 
rows of medium depth grain. U. S. 52 is adapted over quite a wide 
area and has been a very consistent heavy yielder. It Is ideal for a 
corn picker and because it stands so well it can be left for husking 
off the stalk very late in the year if necessary. It is a general all 
purpose Hybrid. 
Ill QdC A This Hybrid has been used very extensively and 
I LbIh* tested ^oroughly all over the com belt and has 
most outstanding yield tests. The stalks are medium height, very 
lodge resistant and blades are a very deep green color. Ears of 
good size are carried medium height. This Hybrid is comparatively 
now to Ohio but certainly comes with very high recommendation from 
all states west of us and we do not hesitate to recommend It highly 
wherever adaption is shown on area map. Our field of 111. 960 seed 
for 1940 planting certainly was outstanding. 
OHIO W 17 
An early Hybrid with very leafy type stalk. 
Should be especially desirable to those 
wanting to fill silo early. Stalk is erect and sturdy which makes it very 
resistant to storms and high winds. Tests have shown It high In 
yielding ability, in fact, it’s one of the best and we recommend It as 
an exceptional Hybrid and worthy of your consideration. It will prove 
its worth. Ear is large and placed medium height with short shank. 
It is especially desired for using with husker as grain does not 
readily shell. 
For more even planting and for better grading we have 
installed a ''LENGTH GRADER" and all our seed showing 
variation in length will be run through this machine. An 
added service that means better quality for "SCARFF'S HY¬ 
BRID SEED" at no extra cost. Prices of all grades of our 
Hybrid seed on poge 39.

C14-A PROMISING NEW HYBRID-C14 
This new Hybrid certainly merits your attention. The cry far and wide has been for a Hybrid with medium 
size stalk, good depth and only medium hard grain, medium early maturing and adapted over a wide area of 
Ohio. This Hybrid certainly seems to answer all criticism and with it all carries high yielding ability and 
atands well. 
You note from the photograph below the length grain as compared to the diameter of the cob. Our sugges¬ 
tion is to plant one field or part of a field to C14 and try it under your own local conditions. It is especially 
ilesirable In com borer areas as It seems to resist their infestation. 
The illustration below is from actual photographs and tells Its own story.
