This high yielding yellow Hybrid has a consist- 
ently HIGH YIELD RECORD OVER A WIDE 
_. TERRITORY in Iowa, southern South Dakota 
| and eastern Nebraska. No matter where it has 
| been planted, the yields have been satisfactory. 
_ It is a very strong grower, producing HEAVY 
_ STALKS with WIDE DARK GREEN LEAVES 
as well as A LOT OF BIG EARS. It holds its 
ears firmly, making it ideal for hand or machine 
picking. This is another extra good cold and dis- 
ease resistant National Hybrid, which does well

GRADED AND DUST TREATED 
Our corn is all properly graded. The Flat Edge 
Drop Grade will plant perfectly with regular 
planter plates. The Round Hill Drop Grade plants 
satisfactorily in a Hill Drop planter. 
Our Hybrids have been DUST TREATED to 
protect the seed and young plants against infec- 
tion from the soil, especially when conditions are 
unfavorable is germination.

IT PAYS TO PLANT 
NATIONAL HYBRIDS BECAUSE 
- DEEP ROOTS— Roots as long as 9 feet 
go down into the soil for drouth resistance. 
Give secure anchorage against winds. 
2. A FEEDING TYPE CORN — Useful 
without grinding . . . Not hard and flinty. 
3. COLD RESISTANT TO EARLY 
SPRING PLANTING— Permits planting all 
cornacreage in good time. Escape fall frosts. 
4. EARS STAY ON STALKS THROUGH 
THE FALL— Developed for machine picking. 
5. HIDDEN VIGOR IN EVERY KER- 
NEL— Because each Kernel is from a de- 
tasseled parent. 

a 
1939 CROP 
The National Hybrids 110 and 114 listed are of 
the 1939 crop. In our opinion this is equal in qual- 
ity to the 1940 crop, which in many cases did not 
mature properly, due to excessive fall moisture and 
early frost. GERMINATION 95% OR BETTER. 
HYBRID SEED CORN 
DON’T TAKE CHANCES 
Plant only Hybrid corn varieties that have proved their ability to produce high yields of quality corn. 
Study the following tables and see for yourself the results obtained in the 1939 Minnesota and Iowa Corn 
Yield Test. Each year the Agricultural Colleges of Iowa and Minnesota, in addition to various others 
located throughout the Corn Belt, test hundreds of new Hybrids. Almost all of these are discarded and 
only a very few recommended for planting. The varieties that we have selected have been at or near 
the top in the Minnesota and Iowa Corn Yield Tests. Choose the variety adapted to your locality. 
MAKE YOUR 1941 CORN CROP THE BEST YOU HAVE EVER HAD.
