HYBRID 
TRU-KROST—WISCONSIN 110 day HYBRIDS (Wisconsin 570 and 
606) 
These hybrids are adapted to northeastern Colorado. They are 
about the same maturity as Minhybrid No. 301 and 403 which 
are outstanding hybrids for northeastern Colorado and nearby 
territories. They grow tall, are strong stalked, produce a large 
tonnage of fodder and stay green until the corn is ripe. 
TRU-KROST—NO. 170 (100-105 days) 
This is a yellow hybrid originated and developed by L. P. 
Vassar. Matures in 100 to 105 days under Colo¬ 
rado conditions and is well adapted to the higher 
altitudes of Colorado, Wyoming and areas hav¬ 
ing similar conditions. In fact is suitable for any 
section where 100 to 105 day varieties are now 
successfully grown. 
Yields in 1939 were much higher than other 
100-105 day varieties. 
HYBRID CORN FOR SILAGE AND FODDER 
Many farmers want hybrid corn that will 
produce a large tonnage of green feed per acre 
and have all the other characteristics such as 
standing ability, uniformity of growth and well 
developed ears. We offer such varieties which 
will meet all of your expectations. Such hy¬ 
brids cost as much to produce as those varieties 
which are primarily recommended for grain, 
but we are offering them at a special introduc¬ 
tory price to get you acquainted with them.
