CORN BELT FARMERS 
like 187 HYBRIDS 
Lester Pfister sold his first hybrid seed to a few of his 
neighbors, but today thousands of farmers through- 
out the entire corn belt plant his 187 Hybrids. The 
second seedhouse is shown in the center of the 
picture below. The present seed processing plants 
are shown at the right and lower right — 202,950 
square feet or about 41% acres of floor space all 
used in the drying, grading and storing of 187 
Hybrids. 
Corn farmers are businessmen —in a_ business 
that requires a great investment in land, buildings 
and equipment. The cost of seed corn, per acre, is 
extremely small when compared with other costs 
of farming. Hybrids differ very little in price per 
bushel — yet the choice ot fhe right hybrid fre- 
quently determines the difference between a small 
and large profit. The steady growth in demand 
for 187 Hybrid seed points up one fact — it is the 
hybrid for dependable income. 
Look at the hybrids on the following pages — and
