MASTER F 101A 
Gdining in popularity every. year in the south- 
ern zones because of its remarkable tolerance 
to corn borer damage. High stalk rot resistant. 
combined with borer tolerance! Short, strong 
shanks hold the long ears upright until harvest. 
Ear droppage is minimum. 
MASTER F 106A 
Here’s the famous Ideal Hybrid Silo Corn for 
105-115 Day areas. Average yields of 15 Ton 
of quality silage per acre, have made it the 
popular choice of thousands of midwest farmers 
for their silo filler! Silage should be harvested 
at the medium dent stage while most of the stalks are still 
reasonably green and succulent, for greatest dry weight. 
4 EASY TO PICK! 
In this day of mechanical corn pickers, dropped ears are quite 
a loss, even if livestock gleans ; 
the field. Master Hybrid’s short, 
sturdy shank really holds the 
ear, until the corn pickers: 
snapping rollers come alon 
and pull it through the picker.? 
You'll get all your corn in the 
wagon, instead of running 
over part of it with the tractor. 
¢ EASY TO 
PLANT! 
New “Super Sharp” kernel 
grading for length, width and 
thickness makes this seed corn 
as evenly sized as mechani- 
cally possible. Just use recom- 
mended planter plates and sit 
back and listen to the steady 
clicking of the wire! 
4 CORN BORER TOLERANCE 
Means Less ‘‘Down Corn”’ 
No doubt you’ve seen what the corn borer does to 
a field of corn but we want to show you how the 
‘problem is being overcome through the Master 
Hybrid breeding program. We picked three inbred 
lines shown at the left. On each stalk, we trans- 
planted 5 egg masses when the plants were 18 
inches high. The first stalk shows poor borer resist- 
ance and tolerance. See how stunted the plant is. 
The second one showed moderate resistance and 
some tolerance while the third inbred shows true 
resistance. Just try one of the Master Hybrids and 
see for yourself how it keeps standing and pro- — 
ducing good yields, even though the borer is 
present. -
