PIONEER HYBRID SEED CORN: 
We are the only commercial Seed House in the North 
that has conducted a long continued project of Corn in- 
breeding and crossing with special reference to Northern 
Plains conditions. 
We are offering this year several Hybrids, particularly 
adapted to the Northern Plains and Midland country. It 
is too bad that the real value of adapted hybrids has 
been obscured by the promiscuous selling of hybrids in 
no way adapted to the territory by gullible or irrespon- 
sible dealers who did not know what hybrid meant and 
often did not care. : 
We offer some of our own hybrids, products of ten to 
twenty years of breeding and testing. We know that they 
will outyield similar types of common seed corn, stand 
up better and be easier to pick. 
We offer also early yellow dent hybrids from the corn 
breeding department at the State Experiment Station or 
other extra early types. 
Try hybrids bred for the Northern Plains and you will 
be surprised and delighted by the results. © 
We have tested these all for several years and find they 
yield well above the ordinary strains of corn and pessess 
greater vigor and strength. Yteld depends on several fac- 
tors. They are: number of ears to the stalk, number of 
stalks to the hill, size of the ears, and maturity of the 
ears at the average frost date. We believe that our 
hybrids will make a high score under each of these head- 




















































YELLOW BENT HYBRIDS 
PIONEER HYBRID “3.” 80 days. A fine pure yellow Dent 
with extraordinary wind and storm resistance, Tali, ears F 
high, a heavy yielder. 
PIONEER HYBRID “E.” 85 days. A very uniform and Be w# 
strong combination of Alta ..yellow dent inbreds, which a 
easily out-yields open pollenated Alta and is very early. 
Perhaps the best adapted pure yellow dent for the Great Plains. 
NODAK HYBRID No. 203. 85 days. Somewhat earlier than No. 201 and 
a little sturdier. We have found it to do somewhat better under our 
local conditions. A beautiful appearing yellow dent, 
- WHITE DENT HYBRID 
PIONEER HYBRID “F.” 85 days. A pure white dent hybrid, which 
will outyield, we believe, any yellow dent hybrid available, a com- 
bination of four of our best Crimmins Rustler inbreds. Very sturdy 
and strong rooted and not subject to wind damage. 
SEMI-DENT HYBRIDS . ar 
PIONEER HYBRID “A.” (See inside front cever.) 806 days. This is a 
cross from four inbred Falconer strains. The result is a uniform 
Falconer type corn, somewhat more upright, easier to pick and better 
yielding. : 
PIONEER HYBRID “N.” S35 days. Combines the yellow dent qualities 
‘of an outstanding yellow dent single cross with the hardiness, earli- 
ness, drought and cold resistance of two outstanding Falconer in- 
breds. A large eared yellow semi-dent that grows straight and tall 
and yields very heavily. 
HYBRIDS FOR SHEEPING & HOGGING OFF 
These two hybrids between dent and flour corn are the heaviest yield- 
ers of any warieties we have ever seen. They do not grow very high 
and are easily reached by the feeding animals. The flour corn parent 
gives them a softer quality which makes them more easily chewed 
and ground up. ; \ 
PIONEER HYBRID “HH.” 86 days. This is a combination of a white 
flour corn single cross on a Crimmins Rustler single cross. 
NEER HYBRID “i.” 80 days. A cross between Falconer and white 
ee: corn, a trifle earlier than “H,” a mixed yellow and white in color. 
Drying and sorting are very slow this year. We are net quoting 
prices due to the uncertainty of supply on account of the heavy, early 
freeze. Write for our Special Seed Corn Price List. ¥
