Hybrid corn has largely taken the place of the old varieties. Hybrids are more uniform, better quality and give higher yields. Twenty 

years ago the richest man in the world couldn’t have bought seed that would have produced sweet corn like the row of Certified Golden 
Cross Bantam shown above. Now you can buy enough seed for a 100 foot row for 10 cents.

“We got corn from you last spring. It turned out wonderful, 
big yield, and grand fodder.”

Pop corn must have the right moisture content for proper popping. ‘This can only be determined by test. If 
too dry, moisten slightly and keep in normal outdoor atmosphere. 
A few days may be necessary for the required adjustment. 
HULLESS: Stalks about 5 feet tall; ear thick and about 
atmosphere. 
*xHYBRID HULLESS (Minhybrid 250): A new 
hybrid pop corn developed by the Minnesota State 
Experiment Station. Their records show a 16% 
larger yield and 29% greater popping volume than 
open pollinated Hulless. The stalks grow 4% to 5 
feet tall and bear two to three chunky 4 inch ears. 
The deep white pointed kernels are arranged in irreg- 
ular rows on a small cob. Hybrid Hulless is earlier 
than the old variety and, we think, it is of better 
quality. As this is a hybrid, seed should not be 
saved for planting the following year. Pkt. 15 cts.;

WHITE RICE: The old standard white commercial

the ear is almost twice as large but the quality is poor 
when compared to that variety. Pkt. 10 cts.;

pop corn. There is always a ready demand in every 
community for Hybrid Hulless.
