HELLO FOLKS: 
We've followed this hybrid corn busi- 
ness for a long time . . . waiting and 
watching to see what happened. Not 
exactly waiting, because we’ve had trials 
most every place in the Northwest. We 
were in the search for better hybrids for 
Iowa, Nebraska, the Dakotas and Minne- 
sota. I am sure we have them now. A 
foremost American corn breeder is now 
connected with us in the testing, breeding 
and growing of adapted hybrids. That’s 
why we are now ready to offer tried and 
proven varieties of GURNEY’S GOLD- 
EN HYBRIDS at FAIR PRICES. 
Now, my friends, about prices. I never 
did believe in prices being too low. I’ve 
always believed in a fair and honest price, . 
good quality and everybody pleased all 
the way around. But when somebody 
puts a price on something that all farmers 
need, and makes it sky high, then I see 
red. I see red now.

yields, more drouth resistant and most 
everybody is sold on it. But that doesn’t 
mean growers should get 2 prices for it. 
No sir. 
What I’m getting at is this. Your 
hybrid corn agent asks you $6.50, $7.00, 
or $8.00 a bushel. Whatever it is, it’s 
too much. You don’t have to pay it, as 
long as you buy direct from GURNEY’S 
and save for yourself the agent’s commis- 
sion. 
7. HOLDS EARS WELL. Ears stay on stalk in fall but pick 
easily by hand or clean by machine. 
8. ALL NEW 1941 CROP. No old, unreliable seed at Cuno! 8. 
9. BEST BLOOD LINES AVAILABLE. The breeder of 
GURNEY’S GOLDEN HYBRIDS has selected only true, 
perfect type inbreds for seed production. Varieties are adapted _ 
to every soil. Pick out your territory and soil type for perfect PSs 
results. 
10. DISEASE RESISTANT. GURNEY’S GOLDEN HYBRIDS 
~ are developed for resistance to smut and other corn diseases. es 
11. TREATED WITH CORN DUST. Every bushel is treated. 
with corn dust to protect against soil borne disease infection. ~ 
Very important. :

Selling by agents is naturally expensive. 
They can’t work for nothing, and they 
don’t. They get from $1.00 to $3.00 per 
bushel for selling you that corn. We've 
nothing against agents, if there aren’t too 
many of them, but we do believe in saving 
you $3.00 per bushel. Selling direct, we 
cut out that profit and sell corn, good 
corn, mind you at about \% their prices. 
Think it over. Plant GURNEY’S 
GOLDEN HYBRID this spring. It’s 
safe, sure,-adapted to your soil and saves 
you more money .. . if you buy early.
