Hybrid Corn must be produced each 
unless this is done. 
* COUNTRY GENTLEMAN HYBRID—95 Days. 
After several years of testing and observation on 
Landreths’ Bloomsdale Farm and other experi- 
ment stations throughout the United States, we 
have decided to offer one Country Gentleman 
Hybrid. This strain is outstanding in increased 
yield “per acre as well as uniformity in type and 
quality. | 
* GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM—86 Days. Grains 
medium length, golden in color. A well-known 
single cross or Inbred Hybrid produced by crossing 
Purdue Bantam No. 39 with Purdue No. 51. Height 
of stalks 53 to 6 ft. Ears medium length and thick- 
ness, average length 7 to 8 inches, short pointed. 
Rows mostly 10 or 12. An excellent Hybrid in 
uniformity, quality and high yield, resistant to 
Stewart’s Wilt Disease. There are many inferior 
stocks of this variety on the market, some at 
cheaper prices. Poor germination, low yield and 
dissatisfaction may result from buying cheap seed. 
Get the best. Get Landreths’! 
%*MARCROSS 6.13—73 Days. Grains medium 
length and golden in color. It is one of the best for 
very early planting, producing a good sized ear. 
Height of stalk about 5 ft., ears medium size and 
medium to thick, averaging 5 to 6 inches, and 
tapering. Rows mostly 10 or 12. 
*MARCROSS P39—80 Days. A golden Hybrid 
of exceptional merit. About a week earlier than 
Golden Cross Bantam with a slightly shorter ear, 
and other characters about the same. 
*NARROW GRAIN HYBRID—90 Days. As 
with Country Gentleman and Stowell’s Hybrids, 
year by crossing, 
Do not try to save 
and will not give satisfactory results 
your own Hybrid seed. 
many inferior Narrow Grain strains are offered: 
Our years of testing and observation have uncov- 
ered the best one of these Hybrids. Try Landreths’ 
stock of Narrow Grain Hybrid. 
* SPANCROSS P39 (Spanish Gold Top Cross)— 
79 Days. Grains medium length, golden yellow. 
The height of stalk is about the same as Golden 
Cross Bantam, ears about the same length, 7 to 8 
inches. There are usually 12 rows of golden yellow 
kernels of fine quality. Spancross is 5 to 7 days 
later than Spanish Gold, is more wilt-resistant, 
produces higher yields, and is better quality. About 
a week earlier than Golden Cross Bantam. 
*STOWELL’S HYBRID—90 Days. There are 
many Hybrids on the market. We have tested the 
various Stowell’s types, and observed them in all 
parts of the country. In our opinion only one is 
outstanding. We now offer this one to our cus- 
tomers. It will increase your yields and uniformity 
of your crop. 
*WHIPCROSS P39 (Whipple’s Yellow Top 
Cross)—83 Days. Grains medium length, golden 
yellow in color. The height of stalk is about the 
same as Whipple’s Yellow, as well as the length, 
thickness of the ear and the number of rows of 
kernels. It is somewhat resistant to wilt, and there- 
fore produces a greater yield than Whipple’s Yellow. 
It is uniform in maturing, and the crop is of good 
quality, better than open-pollinated Whipple’s 
Yellow. This variety is about 3 to 5 days earlier 
than Golden Cross Bantam. 
%* WHIPCROSS 39.2—83 Days. One of the best 
of the early Hybrids.

CORN YIELDS INCREASED 10% 
by treating seed with NEW IMPROVED SEMESAN JR. 
Only 24 cents an acre for New Improved Semesan Jr. is a trifling investment to increase your corn 
crop 10%. In 51 tests on Corn Belt farms, this new ethyl mercury phosphate dust produced an 
average increase of 10% in yield. New Improved Semesan Jr. protects seed (field or sweet corn) 
against rotting; gives better stands; reduces losses from root rots. 
Easily and quickly dusted 
on seed at the rate of 2 ounces a bushel. There is a measuring spoon in larger sized tins. Does not 
reduce the rate of drop in planting.
