MULTI-PERFECTED and STATE CERTIFIED 
U. S. 13 A PRIZE WINNER 
U.S 
13 
In 1939 U. S. 13 was in the blue ribbon class. 
In 1939 it took practically all of the prizes at 
the International Livestock Exposition. It has 
an exceptionally fine pedigree of high produc¬ 
ing inbred lines. It was developed by the 
U. S. D. A. 
U. S. 13 is a leader in the heart of the corn 
belt. Record yields prove beyond a shadow of 
doubt that it is a front ranking Hybrid in any 
section where it is adapted. 
Illinois tests show it high in production on 
different types of soils. It made front rank¬ 
ing position on soils of high, medium and low 
productivity. We know of no finer Hybrid on 
rich land. It is a large, deep grained, single 
eared variety. Has a deep golden color. Well 
dented kernels, moderately rough. Has strong 
stalks and roots. Ears hang on well although 
it is not difficult to shuck. This is really a 
show type corn. It is one of the softer Hy¬ 
brids. Popular with cattle feeders. 
U. S. 13 is adapted over a wide area. In 
Ohio, U. S. 13 was the highest yielding Hybrid 
in official state tests in sections 9, 10, 11 and 
12, which are located in the southern third of 
that state. It yielded 101.9 bu. acre against 
80.7 for open pollinated. It also was top rank¬ 
ing in west central Illinois state test. It 
yielded 24 bushel per acre more than the aver¬ 
age open pollinated in the same test. 
In the southern half of Iowa in districts 7, 
8, 9, 10, 11 and 12, a chart taken from 1939 
Iowa corn yield test bulletin shows following 
average yield per acre: U. S, 13, 89.42 bu., 
U. S. 44, 89.19 bu., Illinois 960, 87.29 bu., Iowa 
Supercorn 119H, 87.21 bu., DeKalb 816, 85.87 
bu.. Pioneer 313, 85.36 bu., Thompsons T8i, 84.84 
bu., Lowe 523, 84.12 bu., DeKalb 827, 83.78 bu. 
U. S. 13 is the Hybrid you want for larger 
yields.

Multi-Perfected 
CERTIFIED HYBRID 
It’s medium early. Was originated by the 
state. This Hybrid combination (Ax90) 
(WFOxHy) is known as Indiana 425 in In¬ 
diana. The inbred lines are all good ones. 
Illinois 751 is a little later than Wisconsin 
570 described on opposite page. In a test 
made in northern part of Illinois in 1936, 
1937 and 1938, for an average of three 
years, this was the highest yielding state 
originated Hybrid Corn. A state test made 
at Arlington Heights, Ill., in 1939, Illinois 
751 had a higher yield than other Hybrids. 
It beat other highly advertised Hybrids sold 
by Agents for $7.00 to $7.50 per bushel. In 
Indiana this same Hybrid, under the name 
Indiana 425, for the average of two years, 
1937-38, was the highest in yield of all 
Indiana Hybrids in all locations in a total 
of 15 experiments at 13 locations. Illinois 
751 produces a large sized well filled ear. 
We suggest this Hybrid for the northern 
one-third part of Illinois, except in counties 
near Lake Michigan. The northern half of 
Indiana and Ohio, and in similar latitudes. 
Try Illinois 751 this year and you will plant 
again next year.

Multi-Perfected 
A State Certified Hybrid 
of Medium Maturity 
It was originated by the Iowa Ex¬ 
periment Station, Is widely grown in 
that state. Also in Illinois, Indiana 
and Ohio, except in far northern part 
of these states. Is adapted for part 
of Pennsylvania, West Virginia and 
parts on east. Best Hybrid for a 
wide range territory. In Illinois, 
Iowa 939 established yields in the 
north central part of the state of 107 
bushels total yield per acre at one 
station. It showed higher resistance 
against lodging in all tests. Has 
shown as high as 45% increase in 
yield over average open pollinated in 
central Iowa. 
Has nice shaped ears. Kernels have slight 
reddish cast on the side. Are broad and of 
good depth. A softer corn than most Hy¬ 
brids. Has strong roots and stalks. More 
universally grown in Ohio than any other 
Hybrid. That shows the wide range of 
adaptability. We have many testimonials on 
Iowa 939. Try it this year and you will be 
a booster.
