ARE FLAT KERNELS 
BETTER THAN 
ROUND KERNELS? 


The heredity of the corn plant is carried 
only in the germ and the shape of the rest 
of the kernel doesn’t make any difference 
in the plant that is produced. If the right 
plates are used you can get just as good 
corn with round kernels and save a lot of 
money. 


DO BIG EARS MEAN 
BIGGER YIELDS? 
You have to figure shrink for cobs and 
water before you can know your yield per 
acre of dry, shelled corn. Late corns that 
make a big cobbed, sappy ear may fool you 
on yield. Also, long shanked corn may fool 
you. Jacques Proven Hybrids have been , 
bred for many years for short shanks, be- 
cause short shanked corn doesn’t leave so 
much corn in the field at harvest. And 
Jacques Proven Hybrids are especially fam- 
ous for dependable maturity and highest 
shelling percentage.
