FUNK HYBRIDS 
GED BY PERFORMANCE 
Cold resistance, heat resistance, drought resistance, disease resistance, 
insect resistance, root development, standability/ quality and many other 
factors have a direct effect on yield. All of these many factors including 
yield, are summed up in one word — “Performance." We are so confident 
of the superior Performance of Funk High-Yielding Hybrid that we are sure 
you'll find it the Most Profitable Hybrid Corn you can plant on your farm. 
The scales tell us accurately the weight of corn produced on a given 
area in our performance tests. Moisture is determined on a representative 
sample of each hybrid so yield can be corrected to a uniform basis. Mois¬ 
ture in corn at harvest is also an index of maturity. Marketable corn is sep¬ 
arated and weighed for each hybrid tested. 
After harvest the data and observations from the entire season, for each 
hybrid, are carefully evaluated. The Trial Hybrids showing marked su¬ 
periority to the Funk High-Yielding Hybrids of known productivity are in¬ 
cluded in the list for next year's study. As soon as new superior Funk Hy¬ 
brids are found the old ones are discontinued. You get “The Best Hybrid 
First From Funk." 
Union County, Illinois: We planted six acres with the V 2 bushel of hybrid seed corn 
we got from you. It averaged about 62 bu. per acre. We figure it outyielded open- 
pollinated corn by at least 15 bushels. 
The superiority of Funk High-Yielding Hybrid is no accident. It is the result of Funk’s scientific pro¬ 
gram for breeding, selecting and testing. You get “The Best Hybrid First irom Funk”.
