When You Can Buy the Same Hybrid for $1.00 to $1.50 Per 
Bushel Less for Equal or Better Quality, Isn’t it Common Sense to Buy it? 
U.S. 13 Has Proven To Be A Topper Year After Year 


This gives you some idea of how the first sorting is done. The corn is taken up on the 4th floor 
of the seed house where it travels on a long belt 135 feet long. Men sort from both sides of the belt. 
Depends on how many husks there are to take off but probably from 20 to 40 men to take care of this 
sorting. The corn is cut off from this belt into bins on either side. We have 22 bins just below this 
belt 12 feet deep each having a capacity of about 600 bushels.

_ Last year, we sold one firm 4035 bushels Certified Hybrid Seed Corn most of | 
which was U.S. 13. This year, we sold thissame firm 7650 bushels Certified Seed Corn 
which is mostly U. S. 13 and could have sold them 5,000 bushels more had we cared to 
‘do so so early in the season before getting the corn in the house. 
U. S. 13 is now so well known there is little need to describe it to most farmers. 
Stands up extra well. Large, rather smooth ear. Very fine quality grain. Mostly a sin- 
gle eared corn. Best adapted to rich soils—does not do so well on thinner types. In 
fact, we have several other hybrids which will do better on medium and thinner type 
soils. Easy to husk and a good picker corn. Ears set close and stay on well. Very easy 
corn to grade for accurate planting. For prices see inside back cover. 
“Every year for the last five years I have been checking four or five of the best 
hybrids and in past year U.S.-13 outyielded the next high by 4.1 bushels per acre.”— 
D. E. COULTAS, Greenview, Illinois. 
“In Clay County, Nebraska Official Test, Kelly’s U.S. 63 showed highest general 
average of 25 leading hybrids. Yielded 95.95, moisture 20%, broken stalks 26, dropped ears 
none. Highest yielder was 97.7 but had 58 broken stalks. In Nebraska State Official Test, 
District No. 2, Kelly’s K374 yielded 50% more than open pollinated corn and showed 76% 
less lodging, Why‘plant any other corn?
