is needed to mature safely before frost. Its record has been 
outstanding making enormous yields far in excess of corns 
usually planted in this-territory—sometimes by 10 or 20 bu. 
extra corn per A. It picks easily either by machine or by 
hand. Stalks stand well. Resistant to cold. Developed 
with deep roots to withstand drought and heavy winds.

yielding early inbreds is THE CORN TO PLANT FOR 
HEAVY YIELDS. Somewhat liimted stock. Buy Early!

This is one of the heaviest yielding early 
hybrids grown and is-famous for its extra large 
ears that mature safely in ordinary seasons in 
this early territory. It’s the work of years of corn 
research for a big-eared, heavy-yielding, early 
corn and is the record maker all through Minne- 
sota and the Dakotas. Does well on practically 
all soil types. Picks easily machine or hand. Espe- 
cially good feeding corn. Besides it’s use by 
northern farmers, it’s valuable and used a lot by 
southern farmers who want an early corn matur- 
ing before drought. Prices on 90 Series:

These blends are made up especially for their territories of many 
adapted hybrids scientifically planned to extend the pollen-throwing 
Period over several weeks thereby insuring a good “set” of corn 
even if pollinization is caught by dry heat. 
GOOD INSURANCE 
Planting a blend of several ADAPTED hybrids is good insurance 
in any year for a good corn crop. Some years one variety outdoes 
others and in these blends you have the insurance you will “hit” no 
matter what the season, RECORD YIELDS are very often IN FIELDS
