SUPERIOR and STATE CERTIFIED 
U.S. 13 A PRIZE WINNER 
In 19389 and 1941 U. S. 138 was in the blue rib- 
bon class. In 1939 and 1941 it took practically 
all of the prizes at the International Livestock 
Exposition. It has an exceptionally fine pedi- 
gree of high producing inbred lines. It was de- 
veloped by the U. S. D 
U.S. 18 is a leader in the heart of the corn 
belt. Record yields prove beyond a shadow of 
doubt that it is a front ranking Hybrid in any 
section where it is adapted. 
Illinois and Iowa tests show it high in pro- 
duction on different types of soils. It made front 
ranking position on soils of high, medium and 
low productivity. We know of no finer Hybrid 
on rich land. It is a large, deep grained, single 
eared variety. Has a deep golden color. Well 
dented kernels, moderately rough. Has strong 
stalks and roots. Ears hang on well although 
it is not difficult to shuck. This is really a 
show type corn. It is one of the softer Hy- 
brids. Popular with cattle feeders. 
State Originated 
CERTIFIED HYBRID 
Tt’s medium early. Was originated by the 
state. This Hybrid combination (Ax90) 
(WF9xHy) is known as Indiana 425 in In- 
diana. The inbred lines are all good ones. 
Illinois 751 is a little later than Wisconsin 
570 described on opposite page. In a test 
made in northern part of Illinois in 1936, 
1937 and 1938, for an average of three 
years, this was the highest yielding state 
originated Hybrid Corn. <A state test made 
at Arlington Heights, Ill., in 1939, Illinois 
751 had a higher yield than other Fybrids. 
It beat other highly advertised Hybrids sold 
by Agents for $7.00 to $7.50 per bushel. In 
Indiana this same Hybrid, under the name 
Indiana 425, for the average of two years, 
1937-38, was the highest in yield of all 
Indiana Hybrids in all locations in a total 
of 15 experiments at 13 locations. Illinois 
751 produces a large sized well filled ear. 
We suggest this Hybrid for the northern 
one-third part of Illinois, except in counties 
near Lake Michigan. The northern half of 
Indiana and Ohio, and in similar latitudes. 
Try Illinois 751 this year and you will plant 
again next year.

U. S. 13 is adapted over a wide area.’ In 
Ohio, U. S. 18 was the highest yielding Hybrid 
in official state tests in sections 9, 10, 11 and 
12, which are located in the southern half of 
that state. It yielded 101.9 bu. acre against 
80.7 for open pollinated. It also was top rank- 
ing in west central Illinois: state’ test... It 
yielded 24 bushel per acre more than the aver- 
age open pollinated in the same test.

An Outstanding Hybrid 
for Large Yields 
About 105 to 110 Day Corn 
This is one of our new Hybrids. It’s sim- 
ilar to Iowa 939, but has some improved 
features. In fact, it is made up of three of 
the same inbreds that go into Iowa 939. 
However, one is different, making it a longer 
and better shaped ear: Has practically the 
same maturity as the Iowa’ 939. It really is 
a smooth looking ear. It’s the type of Corn 
that the big corn raisers admire, the ap- 
pearance of ear. Has nice yellow golden 
color, but sides of grains have a slight red- 
dish cast. Not hard and flinty like some 
Hybrids. Is a fine feeding corn. Has strong 
stalk. Ears hold good position on the stalk 
and is easy to husk. On account of high 
yielding ability of American’s 615 you will 
come back and buy it every year. Suitable 
for south central part of Tllinois, Indiana, 
Ohio and pretty well towards the northern 
part of these states and in same latitude of 
other states. It’s:a fairly early maturing 
corn and is adapted for a wide range of ter- 
ritory. Grow American’s 615 this year and 
show your neighbors some real Hybrid Corn 
yields.
