A HYBRID PLANTING THAT OFTEN OUTYIELDS EVERY OTHER 
BERRY S HYBRID BLENDS 



The Reason for Making Blends 
Most Hybrid Corn varieties have a shorter pol- 
linating period than the old open pollinated corn. 
The old open pollinated corn was a mixture of 
many varities. In making Hybrid Corn, inbreed- 
ing eliminated these varieties so that the inbred 
was a single pure line of corn. In making a Hy- 
brid, four of these inbreds are combined. How- 
ever, the pollinating period of such a Hybrid is 
shorter. In event that hot weather hits when it 
is pollinating, a lot of the pollen will be killed 
which will result in poorly filled ears. The silk on 
the ears will remain receptive to pollen for quite a 
long period of time. Therefore, by prolonging the 
pollinating period we get greater assurance of well 
filled ears. Even though hot weather should kill the 
pollen off of one strain, there is always the other one 
re.

many customers have. One says, “It was the best corn 
I ever grew.” ‘None of the high priced Hybrids ex- 
cels your Blends.” ‘Your Hybrid Blend was the best 
corn in the community.” “I want more of your Hy- 
brid Blends. They are as good as any.” “I sure got 
some great corn from your Hybrid Blend in a rather 
poor summer at that.’’ Another writes, “I filled a 120 .- 
ton silo from 6% acres.” 
Guaranteed Quality—Thick, Fiat Grade 
We make up these Blends in two grades only. The 
Thick Flat grade are kernels that are too thick to make 
regular Flat grade. Although they have about the same 
length, they cannot be classified as Round, therefore we 
use this term Thick Flat. In our opinion this produces 
the sturdiest, most vigorous kind of plant. It is graded 
to plant accurately when proper plates are used. 



to still come along with pollen a few days later to 
fertilize the ears. Thus by using two or three varieties Round Grade 
of Hybrids that mature about at the same time, and Sate 
yet have slightly different pollinating dates, we pro- This is made up of the regular round kernels. Seed of
