e 
silks are pollinated. This does not affect the 
vitality of the seed corn, but it causes more 
round kernels per ear. 
With proper planter-plates for round 
kernels, accuracy of planting is just as per- 
fect as for flat-kernel plates. These plates can 
be used again in future years. 
A tag on every bag of Funk ““G’ Hybrid 
tells what number plates to get. There 
actually is a saving in planting ‘“‘Rounds”’ in- 
stead of ‘‘Flats.” 
If You Don’t Know Which “GC” 
Hybrid You Should Plant 
If you have grown “G” Hybrids in the past 
you know which ‘‘G” number you should use. 
If you haven’t—you can rely on our 5-year 
experience—showing just which “G’ Hy- 
brid will produce best under your conditions. 
This is important! Just because a neighbor 
got results with a certain ““G’’ number is no 
proof that it will be best for you. On the 
back of the Order Sheet mailed with this book 
are several questions. Just give us the 
answers in the spaces provided, tell us how 
much you want and we'll select the right 
“G” Hybrid for you. Thousands of farmers 
have given us their first Hybrid order this 
way, and they are writing constantly to tell 
us how well our choice produced. 
ALL FUNK “G” SEED IS 
TREATED WITH 
SEMESAN JR. 
We take care of this seed treatment on ‘“G”’ 
Hybrids before we ship your order. 

Now—yjust one more point. It’s a ques- 
tion that seems to bother a lot of 
farmers. 
YES, YOU CAN PLANT YOUR 
HYBRID CORN NEXT 
YEAR ... BUT! 
There is just one time when Hybrid Corn is 
Hybrid Seed. That’s when we sell it to you. 
When you grow it, the corn cross-pollinizes— 
and your crop is again open-pollinated. The 
result—less corn from that seed by 15 per 
cent or more. So it doesn’t pay. You don’t 
need to take our word alone for this. An 
official extension test in. Lancaster County 
(1940) showed the results you see in the 
actual pictures below. They tell the story. At 
left is the result from a “second-year-planted”’ 
Hybrid (the seed from last year’s crop). 
At the right is the same Hybrid resulting 
from actual Hybrid Seed. It’s easy to see 
why you get 15 to 20 per cent less corn, 
isn’t it? Yes, you can plant out of your 
crop of Hybrid Corn, but good farmers won't 
do it because it doesn’t pay!
