THESE HYBRID CORN KERNELS MAY LOOK ALIKE, 
BUT THERE CAN BE A DIFFERENCE 
For instance, detasseling may not have been per- 
formed on the stalk carrying the ear from which one 
of them came and the purity of strain may have 
been affected. Southern States takes no chances on 
such occurrences. Your cooperative cuts no corners 
in producing high quality hybrid seed corn. You may 
not be able to see the difference between Southern 
States and other commercial hybrid kernels—but the 
difference is there. 
Southern States aims to help you produce more corn 
per acre. Your success with hybrid corn depends not 
only on the choice of the right hybrids but also on 
planting of high quality seed of that hybrid. The 
superiority of a good hybrid may be lost if the par- 
ticular lot of seed used happens to be low in vitality 
or comes from a seed field in which parent stocks were 
defective or in which crossing operations were poorly 
carried out.
