Hybrid Field Corn 
Jacques Proven Hybrids 
WISCONSIN AND MINNESOTA GROWN 
Maturities from 85 to 120 days 
Corn Growers should consider seriously the growing of 
Hybrid Corn as the Hybrids have proven their merits in all 
corn-growing sections, especially where moisture conditions 
are favorable. In some of the corn-growing states 84 per 
cent of all the acreage planted was Hybrid Corn. In select- 
ing the Hybrid for your conditions, be sure to select a Hybrid 
from a reliable source and of the right maturity. 
Wm. Jacques, the pioneer and largest grower of Hybrid 
Corn in the North, advises to plant three different maturities 
of Hybrid Corn and comments as follows: When several 
good hybrids are compared over several seasons, you learn 
a surprising and important fact. The variety that yields the 
most this year may yield the least next year. This year 
may have favored the corn of one maturity as against the 
corn of another maturity. Next year the condition may be 
reversed. There are certain “critical periods” in the growth 
of the corn plant—when the ear buds are set, when the 
plant silks and tassels and pollinates, and when the kernels 
are being filled. The weather at those critical periods may 
have much to do with the size of the crop you get. Don’t 
choose your seed for next year’s planting based on the per- 
formance in one season of any. one hybrid. Choose only 
Hybrids that have shown a good average performance over 
several seasons and choose three different maturities of 
these. 
Plant Jacques PROVEN HYBRIDS because— 
(1) Every Jacques Proven Hybrid has proven its superior- 
ity in not just one season but as an average of at least 
three seasons before it is offered for sale. 
(2) You can get Jacques Proven Hybrids in dependable 
maturities varying by 5 days, from 85 to 120 days. 
And here’s something else! 
(1) Your Jacques Proven Hybrid Corn shells out more 
corn per bushel of ear corn. It yields even more than the 
wagon box shows. 
(2) Your Jacques Proven Hybrid Corn dries out fast, 
goes into the crib with less water in cob and in kernels. 
(3) If you plant all late corn you run the risk of a soft 
crop in a short cool season,

ordinary Corn on left. Hybrid Corn will outyield open 
pollinated varieties of the same maturity by 15 to 25%. 
Dry Land Grain and 
Forage Seeds 
Grain Sorghums. 
CULTURE—For forage crops, sow 50 to 75 pounds per 
acre; for grain 5 to 6 pounds in rows and cultivate the same 
as Corn. Forage is not quite as palatable for stock as the 
Sweet Sorghums. 
WHITE KAFIR (Dwarf Black Hull) — Usually 
grows 5 to 6 feet tall in the dry land areas. Heads 
are heavy and compact, 10 to 14 inches long with 
black hulls and white seeds. The grain makes good 
feed for poultry and cattle. 
HEGARI—This is one of the earliest maturing of 
the grain sorghums. It is very similar to Kafir. 
The grain is nearly equal to corn in feeding value. 
The stalks are leafy and make excellent fodder. 
MILO (Seoner or Sixty Day)—A non-saccharine sor- 
ghum of high feeding value. This is the plant that 
is being so largely raised for its grain in the dry 
plains of eastern Colorado and western Kansas. 
The seed is larger than the seed of Kafir and not 
as hard and equal to corn in feeding value for 
stock and poultry. 
EARLY KALO—A new grain Sorghum developed by 
the Nebraska Agricultural College. It is of dwarf 
growth and is easily harvested with a combine. 
The grain is of excellent feeding quality. 
COLBY MILO—A new short seasoned variety of grain 
sorghum, growing about 20 inches high. Has erect 
heads and threshes free from the glumes. The 
seed are yellow and approach those of Milo in size 
and shape. 
HIGHLAND KAFIR—A dual purpose variety origi- 
nated at the Akron Station. The seeds are white 
with small reddish-brown spots, grows about 36 
inches high and produces a juicy, leafy, fine 
stemmed stalk. 
FETERITA—Is the earliest and most drought resist- 
ing of the grain sorghums. The seed is larger than 
the seed of Kafir or Milo and not so hard. Should 
not be planted until the weather is warm, as it will 
rot before sprouting if the soil is cold and wet. 
GROHOMA—Is a_ drought-resistant plant, stalks 
growing from 4% to 5 feet tall with grain head 
10 to 18 inches long. It is a Sugar Cane with 
Kafir heads growing on it. The stalks are very 
leafy, making an abundance of fodder. Grohoma 
grain and fodder are rich in protein. Recom- 
mended for fodder only in northern latitudes. We 
offer choice recleaned seed. 
PRICES ON GRAIN SORGHUMS—Postpaid (5 Ibs. 
75c) (10 Ibs. $1.25) (25 Ibs. $2.50). 
Sudan Grass 
Sudan is an annual and requires replanting each 
year, and dies with the first frost in the fall; is 
elosely related to Sorghums (Milo, Maize, Kafir 
Corn, etc.), but yields far more abundantly than any 
of these and the hay has more fattening properties. 
There is no other forage crop known that will resist 
drought like Sudan and it is therefore particularly 
adapted to semiarid regions, yet it yields immense 
crops under irrigation and rainy climates. It may 
be broadcast or drilled in rows and cultivated. Sow 
broadcast 25 to 30 pounds of seed per acre er in 
rows 10 to 12 pounds. Cut for hay when fully headed. 
Under favorable conditions two cuttings of hay may 
be obtained 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. 75c) (10 Ibs. $1.25) (25 Ibs. $2.75).
