VARIETIES Of MEDIUM MATURITY 
This new DeKalb variety, produced for the first time in 1940, is certain to be 
a favorite. Its single, long ear is placed at a convenient height on the stalk 
with broad deep kernels in very straight rows. Like 628, it does well in most 
every type of soil and climate. In DeKalb's experimental fields it has proved 
an outstanding yielder. Its sturdy, medium height stalks and good root system 
help it withstand the ravages of wind and insects. A good rugged hybrid.

DeKalb's research department makes a new contribution 
to the hybrid corn industry in this new variety. Notice 
the uniformity of the ears at the left, their great circumfer¬ 
ence which extends up to the well-covered tips and the 
straight rows of deep, soft-textured kernels. These ears are 
placed on strong stalks of medium height. The variety is 
an easy one to harvest. It is best adapted to fertile soils.
