Ensilage Corn © 


ENSILAGE CORN 
(Fr. Mais pour Ensilage) 
In recent years’a great deal of work has been 
done to-improve the quality as well as the 
quantity of our ensilage corn crops. After 
having convinced ourselves through experience 
that hybrid sweet corns were far superior to 
ordinary varieties, we have been trying to 
obtain the same results with ensilage corn. 
Governments and agricultural colleges with 
the collaboration of the best growers 
have succeeded to introduce on our market 
hybrid varieties from which such results have been obtained that our up to 
date farmers who have tried them, do not wish to go back to the ordinary 
varieties of ensilage corn and for the folllowing reasons: 
lo—Hybrid varieties have much more vigor. Recause of their high germination 
(We guarantee 98%) the seed can be kept much longer. The farmers can sow 
the seed much earlier without running the risk that it will not germinate and 
rot in the ground. 
2o—It takes one bushel of ordinary ensilage corn to sow 3 acres while one 
bushel of hybrid corn will sow from 6 to 8 acres. 
80—Experience has proved that a hybrid variety will produce an average of 
2 more tons of ensilage per acre and is more resistant to the corn borer, 
4o—A hybrid corn being more vigorous, the roots will go down deeper in the 
soil and the plants will stand up after a heavy wind or storm. ; 
60—The difference in price means very little when comparing results. 
Hybrid seeds have been divided in two classes: 
A—Large flat kernels. 
B—Medium flat kernels and large rounds. 
As far as the crop is concerned, there is absolutely no difference between the 
two. All the seeds carry the same hereditary factors and give the same results. 
The seed of class B, being smaller, it is often easier to sow them evenly with 
different types of seeders.
