AS. TREATED Plant flybrid Corn “ect aE 
The worth of Hybrid Corn has been proven to such an extent that hybrids are being planted in 
greater amounts each year and in many sections have supplanted and eclipsed the open-pollinated 
varieties. Hybrid corn produces larger yields of both grain and fodder. 
Their growth and maturity is 
uniform. They are resistant to lodging due to greater strength in both root and stalks. ‘They are de- 
cidedly more resistant to smut and root, stalk and ear-rot diseases. No hybrids have been developed 
that are recommended for dry-land planting, yet hybrids with their immense root system do withstand 
extreme drought and intensive heat remarkably well.

PRIDE BRAND HYBRIDS 
are closed formula productions 
developed by expert plant breed- 
ers and their value has been 
proven by several years of rigid 
tests in field trials. The entire 
production operation is rigidly 
supervised. Seed is processed, 
bagged and sealed by the 
breeder. 
“PRIDE OF THE NORTH” 

PRIDE B3—(80-90 days). This early yellow hybrid 
averages about 5 days earlier than’the B17. 
It has ability to start fast in cold soil and hustles 
right through the season. , It develops good sized 
ears at convenient height on strong shanks of 
medium length. Normal height 6% to 7 feet. 
PRIDE B17—(90-95 day). This all-yellow Hybrid 
Corn“is 5 to 7 days earlier than Standard strains 
of Minnesota 13. It is recommended for the 
higher altitudes in northern Colorado and Wy- 
oming and for late planting in more favored 
sections. Very uniform in appearance, stiff stalked 
with deep disease-resistant root system. 
PRIDE D32—{100 day). This early 100-day hybrid 
is slightly earlier than the standard strains of 
Minnesota No. 18. Its performance has been 
outstanding on cold or slow soils and has out- 
yielded later strains. Ears are large, firmly 
mounted on strong, long shanks to stiff, upright 
stalks. Kernels are well dented, deep and 
starchy but non-flinty. Husks open up after 
denting. 
PRIDE D54—({110 day). This new hybrid replaces 
Tru-Krost Wis. 570. It is highly adapted to 
varying conditions of season, soil and 
moisture. The stalk and root system is 
very resistant to disease and drouth. Very 
few hybrids in its maturity class are equal 
in lodging resistance and stalk breakage. 
Ears are medium length and attached to 
the stalk at convenient height on strong, 
medium long shanks. The grain is unusual- 
ly deep and closely packed on a small, 
fast drying cob and has good feed value.

PRIDE D66—(108-120 day). This is an outstanding 
new full-season hybrid that is unusually fast 
starting in cold, wet soil. Has astonishing re- 
sistance to drouth, disease and lodging. Has a 
large, rugged root system and shows capability 
to withstand weather extremes. It has unusually 
wide adaptability. Ears are long on strong, 
medium length shanks mounted at uniform con- 
venient height. 
PRIDE B77—{115 day). Full season variety of ex- 
ceptional size with all around qualities’ of root, 
stalk, leaf, and ear. Produces large, thick ears 
and very deep, well dented kernels on a small 
cob. Stalks are stiff, shank short and strong. 
Well suited for Arkansas Valley and similar 
districts for grain and fodder, and in place of 
silage corns such as Leaming, Iowa Goldmine, 
Reid’s Yellow Dent and Red Cob Ensilage. 
GOLD SEAL HYBRIDS 
This corn is grown and 
processed for us by a Regis- 
tered Colorado Pure Seed 
Grower from: open hybrid 
formulas, and supervised by 
Colorado State authorities. 
Each bushel bag bears the 
official, registered blue tag. 
COLORADO 125 (WIS. 455)—(100 day). Colorado's 
earliest maturing hybrid corn. It is about seven 
days earlier than Minnesota 13, and is adapted 
for northern Colorado irrigated land, 5,000 feet 
elevation, with comparatively short corn growing 
season. 
COLORADO 151—(WIS. 570)—({110 day). This is a 
dual-purpose hybrid originally developed by the 
Wisconsin Experiment Station. It is capable of 
producing high yields of fodder and grain. It 
produces showy ears, well filled to the tip with 
dented yellow kernels. Stalks are strong and 
wind-resistant. A valuable replacement for Reid's 
Yellow Dent. 
COLORADO 175—(WIS. 625)—(115 day). 
This variety produces a heavy tonnage of 
fodder that stays partially green even 
when the corn is fully mature. Deep ker- 
nels, small cobs, not flinty and easy for 
livestock to digest. Has standing ability | 
superior to most hybrids. Ears stand at 
right height and the husks are loose.
