Kingscrost items—a few days earlier than 
KY. Popular for its vigorous early spring 
growth and its strong stalks. A heavy yield- 
er of uniform, long, slender ears with deep 
kernels. 
KINGSCROST KT— Several days earlier 
than KY4 and like KY4 it has a very 
strong stalk. Its husks open up early in the 
fall for early harvest, quick drying and 
safe cribbing. More popular each year. Rec- 
ommended for southern Minnesota, north- 
ern lowa, and 110-day areas of Wisconsin 
and Michigan.

yielder. 
KINGSCROST KL— One of the newer 
Kingscrost Hybrids. Relative maturity 
about 105 days. Tall plant with large, long, 
slender ears with deep kernels. It is out- 
standing for its early spring growth, yield- 
ing ability and quick drying.

about 105 days. Adapted to southeastern 
Minnesota, Wisconsin and parts of Michi- 
gan. Most popular Kingscrost hybrid for

growth. Produces rapid drying ears of un- 
usual length, 
KINGSCROST KS2— Recommended for 
west central Minnesota, northeastern South

day growing areas. A favorite because of 
its fine yield of long, slender ears. Deep 
green plants with strong stalks. Picks easi- 
ly and cleanly.

hybrid with 90 days’ relative maturity. 
Combines exceptional plant size and large 
grain yield.

turity corn can be grown. Produces excep- 
tionally high yields for such early maturity.

KINGSCROST KE3—Relative maturity 80 
days. Rapid seedling growth — exceptional 
resistance to lodging, large yield and well 
suited to mechanical picking.

maturity flint-dent hybrid. Rapid spring 
growth at low temperatures. Tall plants, 
leafy and non-suckering. Ears placed high
