Two of the greatest things about these Hoffman Funk "G” 
Hybrids are the fine yields they make, and the way they do 
stand up! They go through severe storms in fine shape. When 
other corn around them goes down—up they stand! In the 
whole hybrid industry, these "G” hybrids are outstanding. 
WEATHERPROOF YOUR NEXT CROP 
Plant this Hoffman Funk "G” Hybrid seed. It is the greatest 
corn-crop insurance you can buy. Many years’ use in the West, 
four years here in the East, have proven its ability to defeat: 
DROUGHT: The extra-fine root-systems of these "G” 
Hybrids get every bit of available moisture, every one of these 
hybrids is proven for drought resistance. 
WINDSTORMS: Before any Funk "G” Hybrid goes into 
commercial production, special pulling machines register its 
strength of root and stalk. Must withstand gale velocity. 
COLD SPRINGS: Cold resistance is bred into these "G” 
Hybrids, enabling them to withstand unseasonable cold, wet 
springs. "G” Hybrid vigor gives high germination. 
HEAT: Hoffman’s Funk "G” Hybrids resist broiling suns 
and hot winds. Heavily pollen-laden tassels shed enough 
pollen to set grain on all shoots. Leaves resist "firing”—con¬ 
tinue to feed plant after hot spells. 
EARLY FROSTS: "G” Hybrids mature on time, in loca¬ 
tions where recommended. Growing seasons do not seriously 
delay predetermined maturity dates. Cold-resistant varieties 
keep right on maturing after frosts kill less hardy plants. 
STORMY HARVEST: Don’t worry about late harvesting. 
These "G” Hybrids stand upright! Strong short shanks hold 
up the ears. There at uniform height your ears remain until 
harvested. And because of their long husks and inherited 
resistance to ear-rot, you get sound quality grain! 
ALL “G” SEED IS TREATED WITH 
SEMESAN, JR. 
This is crop insurance for you. It pays! Certain diseases would 
be checked by this treatment, in case they would set in. Pro¬ 
vides protection to seedlings in unfavorable weather. 
“My Funk ‘G 30’ Hybrid 
Corn did exceptionally con¬ 
sidering the chance it had. 
It husks at least a third 
easier. My other corn blowed 
down and the Hybrid stood 
straight .”—Boyd Dilley, Mill- 
point, W. Va. 
Does Your Corn Stand Up Through Storms? Like the M G** Hybrid 
(above left) . . . No longer must you bother with “down” 
corn like the mess above!
