CERTIFIED HYBRID 
Hybrid Seed Corn is well out of the experimental 
stage and has proven to be a money-maker for farm- 
ers everyWhere. It will withstand drought and un- 
favorable weather better than any other type of Corn, 
and will yield 10 to 30% more as each stalk produces 
a large, well-developed ear. The root system is heavy 
and the Corn will stand up when ordinary types will 
not. The stalks and leaves remain green until the 
ear is ripe. Hybrid Corn is also fitted for maturity 
dates enabling the grower to select a type that will 
mature in his locality. The later the maturing types 
you ean grow, the better the yields. Date to maturity 
is from the time the corn comes through the ground 
until it dents and is out of frost danger. 
ONLY STATE CERTIFIED HYBRIDS 
CAN BE SOLD IN WISCONSIN 
AS HYBRIDS 
Plant only Wisconsin Certified Hybrids. Hybrid 
Seed Corn carelessly grown or from poor planting 
stock may not be equal to ordinary open pollinated 
Corn, and we urge all of our customers to make sure 
that the Hybrid Seed Corn that they plant is Wis- 
consin Certified seed. The Wisconsin College of 
Agriculture produces all of the parent seed for the 
growing of Certified Hybrid Seed Corn, and all grow- 
ers must grow Hybrid Corn under the supervision of 
the Wisconsin Experimental Association. All Hybrid 
which has been grown under the supervision of the 
Wisconsin Experimental Association when properly 
dried, graded, and proven high germinating, is 
eligible to be sealed by the Wisconsin Department of 
Agriculture, and can be offered for sale in the State 
of Wisconsin. 
PLEASE NOTE: Some out-of-state Hybrids have 
proven satisfactory, but we caution our - customers 
not to gamble on these late-maturing varieties as we 
have had long seasons the past few years and it 
might. prove costly under an unfavorable or even a 
normal year. 
HYBRID CORN IN RELATION TO 
THE CORN BORER 
No strain of hybrid corn now known is immune to 
corn borer attack. A total of about eight parent in- 
bred lines have been shown to possess some meas- 
ure of resistance. All of those that are adapted for 
use in Wisconsin have been incorporated into Wis- 
consin hybrids, Since Wisconsin hybrids have been 
especially. developed for Wisconsin conditions, they 
may be expected to offer the most promise in meeting 
the corn borer menace,

DO NOT PAY FANCY PRICES FOR 
BRAND NAMES ON WISCON- 
SIN HYBRID SEED CORN 
It has been brought to our attention that many 
growers of Hybrid Seed Corn are asking high prices 
for their seed corn under brand names, and we would 
like to call attention to the fact that all Wisconsin 
Hybrid Seed Corn is produced from parent stock 
obtained from the College of Agriculture. Each grow- 
er receives identically the same planting stock. Each 
grower must conform to all the regulations as re- 
quired by the Wisconsin Experimental Association. 
No seed will be sealed or certified unless it meets 
all of the requirements for Wisconsin Certified seed. 
In other words, all Wisconsin Certified Seed Corn 
must be good or it cannot be certified and offered for 
sale in Wisconsin.
