avs FIELD CORN AND FIELD SEEDS 
NORTHERN GROWN HYBRID CORN 
It is most important that growers of corn in Northern states use only 
hybrids developed in short season areas adapted to Northern conditions. 
Many hybrids that are ideal in the Middle West or Southern sections 
ripen too late to mature a dependable crop in our sections. Therefore, we 
have selected for our customers the following list of hybrids which have 
proved their adaptability to Northern sections, particularly New York 
and New England. These varieties can be depended upon to produce the 
finest crops. They are listed in order of maturity: 
1. Flint-Dent Hybrid (KF) 
2. Kingscrost KE-1 6. 
3. Cornell 35-5 Ts 
4. Cornell 34-53 
* FLINT-DENT HYBRID (KF). The Earliest Corn. Developed 
ESPECIALLY tO) PLloducelLiper yellow 
grain in far northern sections and at the high elevations where only the 
earliest flints will mature. It is a heavy-yielding hybrid, made by 
crossing extra early flint and dent lines. The resulting corn in your 
crop has hard kernels like a flint corn with a small to medium dent in 
the cap. The ears are medium sized with 12 to 14 rows of small deep 
kernels. 
This corn has real vigor and will come up well even in cold weather. 
It is so early that it is bound to mature even in the shortest season. 
The stalks are stiff and hold the ears well up, a great advantage over 
the old Mammoth Yellow Flint which it replaces. 
Flint-Dent Hybrid is the best corn we have yet seen for the very 
cos short, cold season areas of New York and New England, and for a real 
early crop in other sections. 
2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.85; transportation paid. Not paid: Bu. 
(56 Lbs.) $12.50; Bag of 2 Bu. $24.00. 
5. Kingscrost D-4 i 
29-3 Double Cross Hybrid | 
Silobred 

Flint-Dent Hybrid (KF) 
Replaces the old early flints. 
Kingscrost KE-1 
Yields tremendous crops of grain. 
KINGSCROST KE-1. Superior Early Hybrid for Grain. This 
outstanding yellow dent hybrid fills the 
need for an extra early corn that will really produce big yields even at 
high elevations and in the short seasons of New York and New Eng- 
land. It is perfectly adapted to these areas and is ideal for grain where- 
ever the later corns do not always mature. It ripens for husking a week 
earlier than Cornell 34-53, and on our farm it has easily produced more 
shelled dry corn per acre. 
The ears are large and well-filled with pure yellow kernels, and the 
stalks have a vigorous sturdy growth. Plant some Kingscrost KE-1 
in comparison with any other early variety. We are confident that this 
hybrid will stand up better and produce more ripe corn. 
2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.75; transportation paid. Not paid: Bu. 
(56 lbs.) $12.00; Bag of 2 Bu. $23.00. 
KINGSCROST D-4. For Grain and Ensilage. A thoroughly 
tested and‘proven‘hybrid, excellent for grain 
in the medium season areas of the Northeast, and just right for 
ensilage in cooler sections. It combines big husky ears with a strong 
rugged stalk and long broad dark leaves. These large well filled ears 
ripen about five days earlier than Cornell 29-3, and tests and crops alike 
have demonstrated its exceptional ability to produce big crops of grain. 
For two years, it has been the outstanding midseason hybrid in our 
trials. The ears are long and thick with a broad deep kernel and grow 
well out from the stalks for easy husking. 
2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.75; transportation paid. Not paid: Bu. 
(56 Lbs.) $12.00. Bag of 2 Bu. $23.00. 


CORNELL 35-5. Best Medium-Early Grain Hybrid. This large eared, 
stiff-stalked hybrid is a real producer of grain under New 
York State conditions. It is a medium early type, ripening just ahead of Cornell 
34-53, and gives heavy yields of fine yellow corn. The stalks have a strong root 
system and a very erect growth; consequently they do not lodge even under 
severe conditions. The ears are uniformly large and of fine type and they are 
protected against bird damage by a tight husk which covers the tip well. 
Cornell 35-5 is highly recommended for grain production by the State College 
of Agriculture and it has been one of the best early varieties in our tests. The 
stalks are 6 to 7 ft. tall, and the ears are 8 to 9 inches long, and are well-filled 

with deep narrow kernels of even yellow color. 
N. Y. State Certified Seed. 2 Lbs. 85c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.45; transportation 
paid. Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) $10.00; Bag of 2 Bu. $19.50. 
GROW MORE CORN IN 1948 
Farmers in the Northeast can help themselves, their country and the 
world by planting more of the right hybrids this year. For maximum pro- 
duction, plan to utilize your full growing season, yet choose an adapted 
yariety that will mature ripe sound corn for husking or have plenty of high 
nutrient grain for ensilage. 

CORNELL 34-53. Early Yellow Hybrid for Grain or Ensilage. 
This variety, developed at Cornell University, 
is a heavy-yielding grain corn maturing earlier than Cornell No. 11 or 
29-3. At high elevations and in very short season areas, it is also good 
for ensilage, having a leafy succulent stalk and a large plant. 
The ears are medium sized (7 to 9 inches long), 14-18 rowed and very 
uniform. They are not quite as large as Cornell 11, but there are more 
bushels per acre so the total yield of grain is greater. The color is pure 
deep yellow, and the kernels are deep with a small cob. 
N. Y. State Certified Seed. 2 Lbs. 75c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $2.95; trans- 
portation paid. Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) $8.00; Bag of 2 Bu. $15.50. 

PROTECT YOUR PLANTING! 
Full stands mean bigger crops. Treat your corn with both
