NEW “HEAT PROOF” CORN BLENDS! Everybody knows that 
if there is no pollen in the corn field, there is no corn. Ordinarily grow- 
ing corn sheds its pollen only during four or five days. What occurs if a hot 
wind happens to come along at that particular time... there is either no corn 
or very little. 
However, the corn silks remain alive and receptive to fertilization for about 20° 
days. The ideal arrangement is to have pollen falling on them during most of this

period. Then if a hot wind comes for a few days, it doesn’t damage the corn yield, 
because oe will be more pollen coming later. Sounds like good old Horse Sense, i. q hand wanes dD 
doesn’t it? Sop. STS VS as SESS 
TESTS PROVE IT WORKS 
By careful selection and scientific blending of selected hybrids, we have blends that will throw 
pollen to the silks for about three weeks. If hot, drying winds come the corn still has chances to 
fertilize and save your crop. The highest yielding field of corn in the United States a year ago was 
planted with a blend similar to this. This year, during July and August, it proved its worth again. 
These blends have been tried under many conditions and in every case the yield of the blends was 
greater than when one strain of hybrid was planted alone. 
Our corn experts will help you select. the best blend for your area. Order by Number if you wish.
