HYBRID FIELD CORN | 
BEST VARIETIES FOR THE NORTH 
Get the most from your corn—in short season areas especially, you 
must be sure to plant the right hybrid. For grain, select one that will 
ripen fully before frost. For ensilage, one that will reach the hard 
dough stage (well-dented) at the time you want to harvest. Don’t be 
fooled by the large size of the big late varieties—they are mostly 
water and for actual food value, you get the most from ensilage corn 
in the hard dough stage. 
The excellent Kingscrost hybrids we offer have been carefully chosen 
as the best for New York and New England. They are adapted to our 
conditions and give maximum production. In order of maturity, they 
are: 
1. Flint-Dent Hybrid KF 
2. Kingscrost KE 
3. Kingscrost M-2 
4. Kingscrost KS 
5. Silobred 
960 FLINT-DENT HYBRID KF. the Earliest Corn. 
Designed especially for high elevations and for northern areas where 
only the earliest corn will make a crop, KF is the outstanding extra 
early hybrid. A cross of flint and dent types, it has hard yellow kernels 
with a small dent in the cap, good leafiness and strong stalks. It is 
adapted to cold, comes up with great vigor and grows rapidly, matur- 
ing fully ripe corn in the shortest seasons. For best yields space to 
stand not over 9 in. apart in the row. 
Lb. 50c; 2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.90 postpaid. 
Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) $11.75; 2 Bu. $23.00. 
Kingscrost KE 
964 KINGSCROST KE. Fine Early Grain Type. 
A very early yellow dent corn that will produce big yields even at high 
elevations and in the short season areas of New York and New England. 
Perfectly adapted to these areas, it is ideal for grain wherever the 
later corns do not always mature. 
The ears are large and well-filled with pure yellow kernels, and the 
stalks are short but vigorous and sturdy. It is a heavy-yielder, par- 
ticularly if planted fairly close (8 to 10 in. apart in the row). Com- 
pared with many others in the early class, this is an outstanding hybrid. 
Lb. 50c; 2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.90 postpaid. 
Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) $11.75; 2 Bu. $23.00. 
970 KINGSCROST M-2. (Replaces D-4) Valuable for Ensilage. 
This excellent midseason hybrid is recommended primarily for silage at 
moderate elevations and in cooler areas. It produces an abundance of 
wide, long dark green leaves on sturdy stalks and matures about in 
season with the old Cornell 29-3. The ears are notably long and dry 
quickly. We highly recommend this fine hybrid to produce the maxi- 
mum feeding value per acre. 
Lb. 50c; 2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.90 postpaid. 
Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) $11.75; 2 Bu. $23.00. 
STANLEY’S CROW REPELLENT 
If you have trouble with crows and other birds pulling up 
your corn, treat the seed with CROW REPELLENT just before 
planting. Quite effective and does not clog planter. 
Y2 Pt. (treats 1 bu.) 60c; 1 Pt. $1.00; Qt. $1.75 postpaid 
Domestic Rye Grass 
Note the thick, mat-like sod produced by fall 
on one of our sweet corn seed crops. 
Flint-Dent Hybrid KF 
967 KINGSCROST KS. Best Full Season Hybrid. 
We recommend this robust, sturdy hybrid to grow for husking in 
place of Kingscrost D-4, even though it is a few days later. It takes full 
advantage of our normal seasons yet is plenty early enough for ripe 
grain in Western New York and similar areas. The long well-filled 
ears are packed with smooth deep yellow kernels and the plants re- 
tain their green color until frost. For the silo, it is excellent and is the 
one we prefer to all others for our own use. It reaches proper maturity 
early enough to be grown even at moderate elevations and is smut- 
resistant, stiff-stalked and a tremendous yielder. 
Lb. 50c; 2 Lbs. 90c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.90 postpaid. 
Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) $11.75; 2 Bu. $23.00. 
973 SILOBRED. Heavy Yielding Hybrid Blend for Ensilage. 
Several vigorous hybrids are combined here to give maximum produc- 
tion for ensilage. The broad dark green leaves and thick succulent 
stalks are ideal for this purpose, and they remain green even when the 
ears are practically ripe. This means more tons of highly digestible 
ensilage with top feeding value! The plants do not grow too tall, 
making them easy to handle. Highly resistant to smut, withstands 
drought and does not lodge. Do not plant too thick. 1 bushel will 
sow 5 to 6acres. Lb. 45c; 2 Lbs. 80c; Pk. (14 Lbs.) $3.30 postpaid. 
Not paid: Bu. (56 Lbs.) $8.25; 2 Bu. $16.00. 
SOW DOMESTIC RYE GRASS ON YOUR CORN 
Provides Winter Cover, Also Fall and Spring Pasture. 
Instead of bare stubble in the fall, you can have a heavy growth of 
soil building turf by sowing Domestic Rye Grass in mid-summer right 
on your crop. In a few months, you will have a thick growth of grass 
with a deep, matted root system that is perfect to prevent erosion 
during the winter, preserve fertility, and add valuable humus when 
plowed under in the spring. No garden is too small, no grower too 
large, to be benefited by this means. 
For home gardens, use 1 Lb. to 1000 square feet on virtually all 
crops. For larger areas, as little as 12 to 15 lbs. per acre will give a good 
cover. Early sweet corn and other spring crops should be turned under 
or disked down and the land then sowed to rye grass. 
1 Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 65c; 5 Lbs. $1.40; 10 Lbs. $2.60 postpaid. 
Not prepaid, 25 Lbs. or more at 17c per Lb. 
SOY BEANS 
EARLYANA. Best Early Type for Grain and Hay. 
This heavy-yielding, yellow-seeded Soy Bean is the best early kind for 
this area. It is erect in growth, carries the pods well up for easy 
harvesting without loss, and the seed is good-sized and oval in shape. 
For grain, sow 35 to 50 lbs. per acre in rows or 90 lbs. in drills. For 
hay, drill 2 bu. per acre and cut when the pods are formed and the 
beans about half-size. Earlyana usually reaches this stage by late 
August. Inoculate with Nitragin S (page 81). 
15 Lbs. (Pk.) $2.40 postpaid. Not paid: 60 Lbs. (Bu.) $4.90; 
2 Bu. Sack $9.70; 10 Bu. or more at $4.75 per Ba.
