Standard Inbreds From 
Which Most Hybrids 
Are Produced 
The cost of the production of in- 
breds is a large part of the cost of 
hybrid corn. Few people not in the 
production of seed stock have any 
idea of the cost of producing seed 
stock for hybrid corn. It takes years 
'4 @ of work and large sums of money to 
| = | produce good inbreds. On page 2 note 
_& our own inbreds. 

CERTIFIED 805 
While we have grown 805 only 3 years, we find it to be one of our best hybrids. 
It is a full season corn, takes 118 days to mature. Another new hybrid which has the 
inbred K4 in it—our latest inbred which must necessarily be planted not very far north. 
Would say this hybrid should not be planted much farther north than Central Illinois. 
Has a long narrow ear. Easy to husk and just about the right height for good husking. 
We have had-many compliments on the results of this number. For prices see inside 
back cover. 
QUANTITY DISCOUNTS ON CORN 
Instead of buying a bushel or two of seed corn from every Tom, Dick and Harry, 
why not buy more of our high yielding Hybrids and take advantage of these savings. 
5 to 9 bushel, 3%, or a saving of 20c per bushel on $6.50 corn. 
10 to 19 bushel, 5%, or a saving of 33c, per bushel on $6.50 corn. 
20 to 50 bushel, 72%, or a saving of 50c per bushel on $6,50 corn. 
Write for special prices on orders of 50 bushel or more. 
K88 
K88 is a number we have grown for several years. In 1939 we discontinued grow- 
ing it, but we had so many calls for it that we put out one field this year. K88 is a good 
hybrid which does not grow as tall ds some hybrids. A: later hybrid which matures in 
about 118 days. Long rather smooth ear. Rich yellow color. Easy to husk and stands 
up well. For prices see inside back cover. 
Forty or fifty years ago you saw pictures of 
wagon trains drawn by oxen. Here we show 
you how farmers bring hybrid corn to the seed 
house in 1941. The corn is loaded direct from 
the picker into the wagons; and, by bringing 
the wagons in from the field, it saves running 
through a corn dump or elevator into a truck 
which we find is much more satisfactory than 
where the corn is run through too much 
machinery which shells and wastes quite a lot 
of corn.
