Reuter offers only Hybrid Corns bred and 
developed in the South and thoroughly adapted 
to severe Southern growing conditions and cli- 
mate... Hybrids produced in the corn belt have 
repeatedly failed in the South for lack of 
shuck protection from insects. 
Hybrid Corn is produced by crossing se- 
lected pure inbred lines. This. greatly in- 
creases yields for the same reason a mule has 
more strength and endurance than its parents. 
An inbred line is produced by: placing pollen 
from the tassel on the silks of the same plant, 
repeating this operation for about five years. 
Increases yields 40% —Sound Ears — Deep 
Roots—Strong Stalks—Drought, Storm and 
Disease-Resistant — No barren Stalks. It is 
now possible for the southern planter to grow 
normal corn belt crops of corn. The surest 
way to find the best hybrid for your farm is 
to try a part of your crop in two varieties. 
Hybrid seed reduces your production cost 
about one-fourth. It only costs 50c per acre 
more to plant hybrid. 
Only a small part 
of the increased 
yield pays for 
the seed,

in height. Its prolificness is 
well-developed and stalks with 
.5 to 7-ears are not uncommon on 
good soils. Ears small, with 
small cobs and are well covered 
by shucks. Grain is rather small 
and hardy, but not flinty. Enjoys

787 Shoe Peg Corn. 100- days. The result of twenty years of care-

length and have «very small, rich red’ cobs. The grains are un- 
usually long and.pointed, growing 18 to 20 rows to the ear, and 
well filled to the ends. -The chucks are thin but well placed, and 
will stand considerable bad weather. Due to the small cob and 
long heavy grains we have shelled 6 pecks of corn from one hun- 
dred pounds in the shuek. “The. grains are hard and make excel- 
lent milling corn... It is very.easy to shell from the cob. In feed- 
ing value for stock it is unsurpassed. The’ stalks are medium. 
It is. f:airly -early: 
Does. equally well on 
hill land and creek 
bottom. Plantings 
can’ be made as late 
as June. . The stock
