HARRIS’ FIELD CORN AND FIELD SEEDS 
NORTHERN GROWN HYBRID CORN 
For maximum returns, it is important to grow the right hybrid for 
your conditions. If you live at a high elevation or in a cool, short season 
area, use the earlier hybrids; for longer seasons, utilize the later ones. 
If you grow for both grain and ensilage, plant two or three hybrids so 
that no matter what kind of weather you get you will have plenty of 
ripe corn. 
In New York and New England, it is important to use Northern 
grown seed and to avoid the late-maturing middle-western hybrids. 
The following hybrids, listed in order of maturity, have been selected 
for their superior performance in the Northeast: 
1. Flint-Dent Hybrid (KF) 
2. Kingscrost KE-1 
3. Kingscrost D-4 
4. Cornell 29-3 
5. Kingscrost KS 
6. Silobred 
FLINT-DENT HYBRID (KF). The Earliest Corn. Developed 
especially to produce ripe 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 lke 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. 
For greatest yields, sow the seed so that the plants will stand not 
over 9 in. apart in the row. 
2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.80 postpaid. Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) 


Flint Dent:Hybrid (KF). 
Kingscrost KE-1 
$11.50; Bag of 2 Bu. $22.50. 
A valuable kind for short season areas. 
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 season areas of New York and New 
England. It is perfectly adapted to these areas and is ideal for grain 
wherever the later corns do not always mature. 
The ears are large and well-filled with pure yellow kernels, and the 
stalks are short but vigorous and sturdy. It is a heavy-yielder, 
particularly if planted fairly close (8 to 10 in. apart in the row). We 
have compared this hybrid with many others in the early class and 
find it most superior. 
2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.80 postpaid. Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) 
$11.50; Bag of 2 Bu. $22.50. 
Extra early with remarkable vigor. 
KINGSCROST D-4, Wonderful for Husking and for Sn 
silage. Here is one of the best midseason 
hybrids for the Northeast. It is a good corn in most sections and 
makes a fine ensilage type in the cooler areas. 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. On our farm it has been one of the out- 
standing hybrids we have grown. The ears are long and thick with a 
broad deep kernel and grow well out from the stalks for easy husking. 
We recommend D-4 in place of Cornell 35-5. 
2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.80; postpaid. Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) 
$11.50; Bag of 2 Bu. $22.50. 
CORNELL 29-3. The Standard Silo Hybrid for New York and New 
England. This is a highly productive silage corn in nearly 
all sections and is excellent for grain in the medium season areas of New York and 
New England. 
The ears are large, rather slender, and the big broad kernels are of various 
colors; white, yellow and red, so this variety should not be planted for grain where 
a pure yellow corn is desired. 
Due to the enormous crops and the exceptionally high proportion of digestible 
food in the ensilage, it is one of the most economical varieties to grow for the silo. 
Highly recommended by the State College of Agriculture, and grown with satis- 
faction by thousands of farmers. 
N. Y. State Certified Seed. 2 Lbs. 85c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.50 postpaid. Not paid: 
Bu. $9.00; Bag of 2 Bu. $17.50. 
KINGSCROST KS. Full Season Grain and Silo Corn. This robust hybrid 
is just right to take advantage of the normal season in 
Western New York and similar areas, and produces large crops of fine grain. The 
ears are long and well-filled with smooth deep kernels and the vigorous plants 
retain their green color even late in the season. For the silo, this corn will ripen to 
the proper maturity even at moderate elevations, giving maximum yields. For 
husking in the longer season areas, it is ideal. Smut-resistant, stiff-stalked and 
productive, Kingscrost KS is a most desirable hybrid. 
2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.80 postpaid. Not paid: Bu. $11.50; Bag of 2 Bu. $22.50 
SILOBRED. Heavy Yielding Hybrid for Ensilage. This is a blend of several 
——_—_——— vigorous hybrids adapted primarily for ensilage. Together they will 
produce considerably more and broader leaves and thicker and more succulent 
stalks than 29-3. These leaves and stalks remain green and in prime condition 
even when the ears are nearly ripe. This means more tons of highly digestible 
ensilage when cut, and the ears are ripe enough to insure maximum feeding value. 
The plants do not grow too tall, making them easy to handle. Silobred is highly 
resistant to smut, withstands drought and will not lodge like the older varieties. 
Do not plant too thick. 1 bushel will sow 5 to 6 acres for ensilage. 
2 Lbs. 80c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.15 postpaid. Not paid: Bu $7.75; Bag of 2 Bu. $15.00.
