NEWEST HYBRIDS 

AMERICANS 
AMERICAN'S 825 
This is a full seasoned Hybrid and our newest number in this 
maturity class. America’s 825 has been fully tested in many 
sections and we believe it is the heaviest yielding Hybrid in 
this class. Growers are enthusiastic about 825. It stands up 
and holds its ears exceptionally well. The stalk is very strong 
and the single ear is large with very deep kernels. Under very 
unfavorable conditions last year due to heavy Corn borer infes- 
tation, 825 was consistently superior to other Hybrids. We 
want you to try this outstanding number this year even if you 
only put in a very small acreage, because after 
$9.75 Bu. trying it once you will be sold on it as hundreds
