HYBRID SWEET CORN 
Cross Poliinated Yellow Varieties 
Special methods of breeding and crossing have produced many new varieties of exceptional merit. The crop from 
carefully grown seed shows a remarkable increase in vigor and yield as well as greater uniformity in ripening. The 
varieties listed below have been chosen for outstanding performance. We caution our customers against saving their 
own seed for planting, as hybrid corn will not give the best results unless carefully crossed every year by expert 
growers.

We can supply the more important varieties of hybrid corn with seed treated with the best fungicides to insure more 
perfect stands, also some varieties in sized seed for more uniform planting at no additional cost. 
Corn treated with SPERGON resists diseases that attack young seedlings, increasing the stand of healthy plants 
and repaying the cost of treatment many times. 1 oz. 25¢; 5 oz. $1.00; Ib. $2.25
