OUTYIELDS,

AND DROUGHT 
As in the case of all things new, there has been a certain 
amount of skepticism regarding Hybrid Field Corn. Many farmers 
have held back in accepting Hybrid Corn. This skepticism has 
been gradually replaced with enthusiasm for this new member of 
the maize family by reason of its performance and higher yields 
as compared with old fashioned open-pollinated corn. Compare 
the yields resulting from the 1941 Oregon Extension Department 
growing tests, shown below, with yields you have been getting 
and you'll be a believer in Hybrid Field Corn. We venture the guess 
that 95% of all corn planted in Southern Oregon this past season 
was Hybrid Corn. Open-pollinated corn has been practically elim- 
, inated. By all means try one of our hybrids this year. They are 
proved. 
WISCONSIN No. 695. Wisconsin No. 695 was the highest- 
yielding grain type hybrid field corn in the 1940 Extension 
Trials. It also performed well in the 1941 trials. Probably the 
earliest maturing variety yet tried in Southern Oregon. This 
variety also surpassed most other varieties in the trials for per- 
centages of corn shelled out. If you want an early maturing 
hybrid plant Wisconsin No. 695. Postpaid, per Ib. 30c; 10 Ibs. ~ 
$2.50. Write for quantity prices. 
IDAHYBRID No. 680 SILAGE CORN. If you are after maximum 
yields for silage plant No. 680. It outyields all others in 
green growth and ‘actual ears of grain. Does not lodge and is 
easily cut with binder. Grows to uniform height, resists cold, 
drought and heat. Postpaid prices: Per Ib. 30c; 10 Ibs. $2.50. |

little difference. Our customers’ experience with No. 544 leads us to con- 
clude that it is probably better adapted to lighter soils than 416, although it 



does well on all types. As is the case with most all hybrids, No. 544 is ideal 
for silage, producing heavier yields of ensilage than open-pollinated sorts.
