OPEN-POLLINATED VARIETIES 
For the farmer who prefers the open-pollinated varieties, we 
offer the following. All of them are old standby varieties. 
PRIDE OF THE NORTH. Ears 8 to 10 inches long, with 16 
rows on the ear. Cob small, grain above medium size and 
closely set. One of the hardiest. Matures in 90 days. 
GOLDEN SURPRISE. Ears are good size, with 14 to 18 rows 
of long, light orange kernels. Matures in 90 to 95 days. An 
excellent Corn for the crib. 
SCOTT’S SURE-CROP. The tremendous quantity of shelled 
Corn this variety produces to the acre surprises everyone who 
grows it. Ears are medium long, cob thin, kernels long and of a 
rich, deep yellow. Ripens in 90 to 95 days. 
IMPROVED LEAMING. Produces a good-sized ear with deep, 
broad grains. Matures in 105 days. 
WHITE-CAP YELLOW DENT. Particularly suited for light 
soil. Ears about 10 inches long, well filled, with 16 or 18 rows; 
grain is yellow with white tip. Ripens in about 115 days. 
All of our Seed Corn is selected with the utmost care. The 
ears are carefully hand-selected before they are shelled and the 
grain is carefully graded on the most modern grading equipment. 
It is thoroughly dried, of high germination, and of the best pos- 
sible quality.

HYBRID CORNS 
The acreage planted to Hybrid Corn in recent years proves 
conclusively that the hybrids are far more satisfactory than the 
open-pollinated varieties. They have more vigor, produce larger 
yields, and are more drought and storm-resistant than open- 
pollinated varieties. 
The hybrids we offer have been selected from a large group for 
their outstanding performances and superiority over other varie- 
ties, and in our opinion are the best adapted to this section. 
OHIO. K23. An early hybrid adaptable for use in the better soils. 
Stalks are short, deep green, and leafy; ears are medium in 
size, with 16 to 18 rows. Maturity 90 to 95 days. 
OHIO K24. A high-yielding hybrid. Stalks of medium height, 
leafy and dark green; ears of medium length with 14 to 16 rows. 
Maturity 95 to 100 days. 
IOWA 939. Adapted to a wide range of conditions and probably 
the best-known hybrid. Has stiff stalk, medium in height; ears 
have 16 rows with somewhat rough, soft, rich yellow kernels. 
Maturity 100 to 105 days. 
OHIO W17. Well adapted to this section, and a heavy yielder. 
Stalks are leafy and of medium height, ear about 8 inches in 
length, and kernel light yellow in color. Maturity 100 to 105 
days. A very popular hybrid with many farmers. 
KINGSCROST HYBRIDS 
Actual farm and official state trials have shown that Kingscrost 
Hybrids have not been surpassed in yielding ability by any group 
of hybrids of comparable maturity. They are grown and pre- 
pared for planting under the most exacting conditions. We 
recommend that you try at least one of them this year. 
Kingscrost KS. The most outstanding Corn in its maturity 
class. Its large, deep-kerneled ears with small cobs are re- 
sponsible for its large grain yields. Maturity 90 to 95 days. 
Kingscrost KR. For maximum all-round performance Kings- 
crost KR has not been surpassed. Disease resistance combined 
with high grain and fodder yields make this a very popular 
hybrid. Maturity 95 to 100 days. 
Kingscrost KY. An exceptional hybrid that has remarkable 
ability to stand up under adverse conditions. Many wide, long 
leaves set close together on the stalk insure high yield of fodder. 
Ears are exceptional in their size and quality. Maturity 100 
to 105 days. 
ENSILAGE CORN 
LANCASTER COUNTY SURE-CROP. The leading ensilage 
variety. Ears are long, with yellow grains, and not propor- 
tionately thick. Stalks are quite tall and very leafy. An ex- 
tremely heavy yielder and a most desirable ensilage variety. 
EUREKA. Produces unusually heavy foliage and often grows 
16 to 18 feet tall. Ears are very long; grain is large, broad, and 
ivory-white. 
U.S. 13 HYBRID. One of the highest yielding of all hybrid 
varieties for both grain and silage. The stalks are medium tall 
and lodge-resistant; ears medium long, with 20 to 22 rows of 
deep grains. Matures in 110 to 115 days. ~
