POPCORN SEED 
Zea mays var. everta 
To supply the increasing demand for popcorn which has been grown and selected for 
seed purposes to produce the maximum ratio in volume of popped corn, we are now

ILLINOIS HULLESS (White) CIPNO 
Prof. B. L. Weaver, University of Illinois, originated this Japanese Hulless type 
which seems to mature practically free from smut. Particularly desirable for 
its high ratio of popping volume and tender texture and pure white color after 
popping. Ears somewhat longer and slightly more slender than Japanese 
Hulless. 
JAPANESE HULLESS (White) CIPFA 
A white, small and slender pointed kernelled type, with short stubby ears. 
Numerous irregular rows to zigzag kernel formation on cob. Unusually tender, 
sweet and pure white when popped. Stalk slender and about 5 feet tall. 
MINHYBRID 250 (White Hybrid) CIHYB 
This white hybrid popcorn developed by Minn. Agric. Expt. Sta. is an im- 
provement over Japanese Hulless for yield and popping expansion. It also 
matures earlier, practically free from smut. Adapted to Northern areas. Ears 
3 to 4 inches long, plump and bunt. 
PURDUE 32 or K4 (Yellow Hybrid) CIPKI 
A yellow three-way cross hybrid by Kansas State College and Purdue Uns- 
versity to be used for the production of popping corn only. Extremely heavy 
yielding, kernels expand to exceptionally large size. The popped corn is de- 
sirable for its tender texture and rich flavor. Plant growth is vigorous with 
a stalk approximately 6 ft. tall. Production has been very satisfactory in the 
Central Western section, although a small percentage of plants produce ears 
of large, semi-field corn type whieh must be sorted out and used for feed, the 
remaining crop of fine popcorn has been amply large to make the use of this 
hybrid well werthwhile. Ears 6 to 7 inches long, slightly tapered and well 
filled. This is mostly a 2 eared variety. 
SOUTH AMERICAN or T.N.T. or Dynamite (Yellow) CEPPO 
A popular, widely adapted variety in the longer growing season areas. A 
large kernelled, dark yellow, pearl smooth type which is very productive of 
long slender 7 to 7% inch ears with 12 to 16 straight rows. A large dark green 
stalk about 7% feet tall. Particularly desirable for its high yield, and when 
popped it has a buttered like, creamy appearance and expands to exceptionally 
large size.
