Wetsel’s Adapted Hybrid Seed Corns

115 Days. Rapidly becoming the 
most popular Hybrid. In numerous 
scattered sections, it was so superior 
to other leading varieties in adjoin- 
ing fields last year that the difference 
became a subject of comment where- 
ever farmers gathered. Because of its 
performance last year, we expect it 
to be the leading variety during 1942 
planting season. 
In a large number of actual tests, 
it has proved to be unusually con- 
sistent in its performance. Stalk is 
medium in height—somewhat smaller 
than Reid’s Yellow Dent. Ear is 
large, with rich golden yellow ker- 
nels. Ears are frequently longer than 
husks, making it easy to shuck. Grain is softer than most Hybrids. 
From our own experience and observation, as well as countless reports from 
farmers who grew this corn last year, we do not hesitate to place it at the head of 
our list. It fills a long established demand from farmers for a Hybrid with charac- 
teristics like the corn they are accustomed to growing. See price below. 
Illinois 200. 120 days. Rather similar to per acre last year, here in Virginia. See 
U. S. 13. Stalk slightly larger, requiring price below. 
several days longer for maturity. Stands Hybrid 813. 115 days. Essentially the same

somewhat longer but smaller in circum- grown in a western state for us by. a 
ference than U. S. 13. Has yielded well large concern which specializes in Hy- 
in our tests. Like other corn, it will do brid corns. See price below.
