HOOSIER-CROST 840 
Maturity 120-130 Days 
Rough Reid type. One of the latest developments in hybrid corn re- 
search. This hybrid is the farmers’ type—deep grain, soft kernel, stiff 
stalks, strong shank, and high in feeding value. Resistant to chinch bugs, 
Havent and southern root worms. “Farmers use this hybrid for feeding 
ive stock.” 
HOOSIER-CROST 818 
Maturity 122-125 Days 
A very high yielding hybrid. Adapted to soils of high fertility in the 
southern Corn Belt. Dark green foliage. Plant carries a long, medium 
Reid type of ear. Resistant to adverse weather conditions as well as to 
the southern insects and root worms.

WHITE HYBRIDS 
Hoosier-Crost 746 
Maturity 128 Days 
This white hybrid, adapted to the southern Corn Belt, combines a num- 
ber of desirable characteristics—deep roots, stiff stalks, and extra high 
yields. Produces a very long ear of high quality grain. This white hybrid 
outyielded all other hybrids in our 1940 yield test. 
100 BUSHELS, PLUS, PER ACRE 
We have an actual untouched photograph of Hoosier-Crost Hybrid 
growing in the field, showing the large, well developed ears. These 
are the kind of ears that will pack a 100 bushel yield in an acre. 
Uniformity in the height of ears on stalks. This is especially desir- 
able at harvest, whether by hand or with a mechanical picker. 
Another factor always found in Hoosier-Crost Hybrids is its high 
degree of standability. Regardless of the weather conditions, and 
in spite of storms and high winds, Hoosier-Crost will always stand 
up much better than ordinary strains. Its superior root development 
and unusually strong and stiff stalks are responsible for this desir- 
able factor.
