Hardy! 
_ Northern Grown! 
| Early! 
Adapted! 
_! UNITED is famous for its 
, NORTHERN HYBRIDS. The 
“\ reason is simply that 
UNITED’S hybrids are some 
of the very few TRULY 
GOOD NORTHERN HY- 
BRIDS and THEY ARE 
GROWN IN THE NORTH. 
This makes them hardy 
against weather conditions 
most other hybrids never sec- 
These extra-early hybrids 
are grown on acreage con- 
tracted in Minnesota and 
Wisconsin and dried in north- 
ern plants. They are adapted 
to northern conditions and 
will withstand the rigorous 
weather conditions and early 
spring cold which are often 
too much for unadapted 
hybrids. 
For hybrids for the 
NORTH, plant UNITED and 
be SAFE. 
20 EARLIEST HYBRID OF ALL—(85 to 90 days) 
This is one of the earliest hybrids available anywhere and one 
of the heaviest yielders. Has wide adaptability all through the 
northern area where it matures and produces @ heavy yield even in short 
season. Stands well. Good size ears—very regular at picking height. Dries 
out fast for early cribbing. 
2 THE LARGE-EARED EARLY—(90 to 95 days) 


AY M. 






Similar to U20 put has larger stalk and ear and is a trifle later. 
Excellent feeding quality and extremely heavy yielder. Kernel 
very deep and large size ear of Minn. 13 type. One of the best for northern 
sections but widely used in southern sections for replant corn in the 
30 and 40 series sections: (see map) and for hogging down in the 50 and 
60 series sections. 
30 HEAVY YIELDING EARLY—(95 to 100 days) 
Despite its earliness, you ean’t beat U30 for a heavy yield. It 
has made over 100 bu. per acre and some 120 bu. per acre 
reports have been received. U30 has a very stiff stalk, deep roots, and @ 
large, medium rough single ear. Has medium soft kernels of high feeding 
value. Kernels deep, cob small. Ears about 2% ft. from ground, 
U3 THE ALL-AROUND MEDIUM EARLY—(100 to 105 days) 
One of the most “all-around” hybrids of the earlies. Very heavy 
yielder, good. ear size, very deep kernel with small cob and 
noted everywhere for its exceptional standability—despite high~ winds. 
Ears of beautiful Reid-type. cylindrical show ears. Dark green foliage. 
Beside the area it matures in, it is also used heavily in the 50 or 60 series 
sections (see map) for late planting or for early hogging down and in the 
20 series section for fodder. 
U (White) THE EARLIEST WHITE—(90 to 95 days) 
United is one of the few hybrid companies that have @ GOOD 
early white. U2 is it—one of the earliest white hybrids that bring 
you premium prices. Yields heavy. Exceptional for standabllity. 
u (White) SILVER KING TYPE—(100 to 105 days) 
This is the early white hybrid of the Silver King type. Has large 
ears and an extremely high shelling percentage. One of the few 
good white hybrids for this maturity zone.

cal ear of reddish cast. Exceptionally high feeding quality 
and shelling percentage and is noted because cattle prefer it. Its 
protein is well balanced with corn to make perfect feeding. Cob 
small, kernels deep 50 shells out high percentage grain. Capable 
of 120 bu. per acre on average to rich soils and prefers them
