HYBRID VARIETIES 
Hybrid Snaps are the result of crossing pure-line strains of two 
distinct varieties, and possess, among other good points, the in- 
herent quality known as “‘hybrid vigor’’ not found in any self- 
pollinated variety. Because of their hybrid nature, it is very im- 
portant that no seed be saved from the flowering crop as it will 
result only in a disappointing mixture. Since only the originators 
of these varieties have knowledge of the parents used in produc- 
ing them, seed from other sources is almost sure to prove un- 
satisfactory; therefore we offer only originator’s packets of hy- 
brid varieties. Because the production of hybrid seed calls for 
much hand labor in cross-pollinating, the supply is often short 
of the demand. We offer the varieties listed at right.
