Lester Pfister Latest 
Here are Lester Pfister’s latest additions to his list of 
famous hybrids. All three hybrids have been put through 
their paces in experimental plots for several years, and 
the carefully-checked results show great promise of a 
very interesting future for these numbers. 
A few bushels of LP 500 and LP 600 were planted by 
farmers near El Paso in 1954, but by the spring of 1955 
we will have enough seed to supply a small number of 
our customers in other parts of the Corn Belt. LP 444 
has been tried in experimental plots only, but we will 
also have a small supply of it for 1955 planting. 
Consider the characteristics of each of these new hybrids 
. . and decide whether one of them offers new possi- 
bilities for you. If one of them does, and if you want 
to get in on the ground floor, write us at once, or see 
your local 187 Hybrids dealer. 
This addition to our popular triple number hybrids is an out- 
standing hybrid of medium early maturity. Its ears are ex- 
tremely uniform, of excellent quality, and are well placed on 
medium-height stalks. Insect and disease resistance and 
tolerance are bred into this hybrid. It is well adapted to the 
soils of the North Central and Central sections of the Corn 
Belt. 
LP 444 
Experimental plot performance indicates that this recent de- 
velopment is destined to become one of our most popular 
hybrids. It has an exceptionally high shelling percentage of 
good quality grain. Ears are well placed on medium-height 
stalks. Well adapted to Central and South Central sections. 
LP 500 
This is another new hybrid of medium maturity that shows 
great promise of pushing some of the old favorites out of 
their positions. The ear, grain, and stalk qualities of LP600 
are of the character that is popular with Central and South 
Central Corn Belt farmers. We have found it to be well 
adapted to a wide variety of soils.
