ities. 


158. (Hybrid K4 or Purdue 32.) No accident about this 
wonder hybrid! No guesswork about the sensational records 
this hybrid popcorn is making! At Purdue University, where 
it was originated, exact tests have been made over a period 
of years. In a 4-year test, Purdue 32 yielded 55% more than 
Open Pollinated. In a 3-year test, it popped 35% greater 
volume. Giant popped kernels, the nearest hull-less of any 
corn you’ve ever eaten, and the flavor and texture are “ex- 
cellent”. Average a little better than 2 big ears per stalk. Out 
of 24 varieties in our tests, this was the best. Big Stalks, 
almost like field corn. We have a limited production of this 
South American Jumbo Hybrid (Purdue 32) this year. You 
need to know what a wonder hybrid it really is. Don’t delay.

Texas Resistant No. 1 
439. (85 days.) The great resistance 
of this melon to downy mildew and 
aphids comes from West India. It is a 
selected cross of a West India melon 
and Hale’s Best. It thrives, makes 
luxurious vine growth and great yield 
in spite of downy mildew, aphids, and 
unfavorable weather. The melons are 
5 to 6 inches long by 43% to 5 inches 
in diameter. Beautiful salmon flesh 
has a grand flavor and there’s lots of 
delicious meat for you because the 
seed cavity is small. Texas Resistant 
No. 1 will be a favorite of yours just 
as soon as you know what a great 
melon it really is. Plant it this year.
