FUNK'S HYBRID G-571W (White) 
ADAPTATION: Her© is a new white hybrid adapted to the 
southern edge of Region 4 and to the northern half of Region 5. 
CHARACTERISTICS: A single-eared, medium dent type with 
good standing qualities and ability to respond well under condi¬ 
tions commonly found in the south central corn belt where it is 
adapted. It compares with our yellow Hybrid G-94 in maturity. 
Numerous field tests indicate extremely satisfactory performance 
with this new white hybrid. 
FUNK'S HYBRID G-86 
ADAPTATION: Ideally suited as a full season hybrid in the 
northern half of Region 5 for early planting on the better soils. 
Medium to full season in southern part of Region 5 and in Region 6. 
CHARACTERISTICS: Here is a hybrid with the heat and drought 
resistance needed for the lighter soils commonly found in the south 
central and southern corn belt. Its well covered single ears carried 
at a convenient height on strong stalks make it popular wherever 
grown. Chinch bug resistance also qualifies it for successful per¬ 
formance in its adapted territory. A top yielder under a wide range 
of soil conditions. 
FUNK'S HYBRID G-90 
ADAPTATION: Adapted to Regions 5 and 6. It has given very 
successful performance on soils of varying levels of fertility. 
CHARACTERISTICS: This hybrid has an extremely stiff stalk and 
shows resistance to grasshoppers, rootworms, and chinch bugs 
which, with its heat and drought resistance, makes it a very desir¬ 
able hybrid for the region to which it is adapted. 
As a new hybrid in 1937. G-90 was first in the Southwestern 
Field in the Indiana Corn Performance Tests, at which place it 
produced the highest yield in Indiana for 1937. It was first in the 
Southern Illinois State Performance Test at Edgewood. Funk's 
Hybrid G-90 "has what it takes" for the lighter soils of the south 
central corn belt. This was demonstrated again by 1938 results. 
At the same time it can use the higher fertility levels of that section 
to wonderful advantage. 
FUNK'S HYBRID G-123 
ADAPTATION: A newer hybrid which is late enough to compare 
with the open-pollinated varieties commonly grown in Region 5 
and 6 to which this hybrid is adapted. 
CHARACTERISTICS: A strong-stalked, vigorous growing hybrid 
which has made a fine record. The ear is long and rather slender, 
and the grain is of high quality. This hybrid has resistance to 
ch/nch bugs, rootworms, and grasshoppers. In the season of 1938
