FUNK’S HYBRID G-94 
Full season in maturity for south half of 
Region 4; medium to full season for Region 
5. Adapted to a considerable range of soil 
type and fertility levels, doing its best, of 
course, on the richer soils. 
A dark green-colored strain that stands 
up exceptionally well and survives chinch 
bug and rootworm attacks. It has also dem- 
onstrated considerable resistance to grass- 
hoppers, and Stewart’s Disease. Heat and 
drought resistance bring. it through unfa- 
vorable summer seasons with a minimum | 
of damage, while cold resistance allows it 
to be planted early in the spring and to 
completely mature in the fall. A single-eared 
hybrid that any farmer, in the territory to 
which this hybrid is adapted, will be proud 
to grow. Fine for hand or mechanical pick- 
ing. Consistent leadership in our own and 
state test plots,as well as on farms have 
made G-94 one of our most popular strains. 
FUNK’S HYBRID. G-90 
Adapted to Regions,‘5 and 6. It has given, 
very successful performance on soils of vary- 
ing levels of fertility. 
This hybrid has an extremely stiff stalk 
and shows resistance to grasshoppers, root- 
worm, and chinch bugs which, with its 
heat and drought resistance, makes ita very _ 
desirable hybrid for the region to which | 
it is adapted. Funk’s Hybrid G-90 “has what - 
it takes” for the lighter soils of the south 
central corn belt. At the same time it can 
use the higher fertility levels of that section 
to wonderful advantage. It is single eared 
and large eared.

FUNK’S HYBRID G-139 
Funk’s G-139 is full season in maturity for 
early planting in Region 5 and medium to 
full season in Region 6. G-139 has splendid 
possibilities in the southern corn belt 
doing unusually well on the lighter soil 
type but at the same time giving excellent 
results on the higher fertility level. 
This Hybrid has excellent stalk quality 
standing up until harvest. It withstands 
chinch bug outbreaks and corn diseases 
that are common to south central and 
southern corn belt, G-139 is late enough 
in maturity to compare with the open-pol- 
linated varieties commonly grown in the 
important corn growing regions stretching 
from Kansas across Missouri, Southern 
Illinois, Southern Indiana, Kentucky, and 
Tennessee. Its performance has also been 
highly satisfactory east of the mountains in 
similar adaptation areas. 
While our production of G-139 is limited 
this season, we suggest all of our customers 
may be interested in using a limited bushel- 
age of G-139 this year in its adapted area. 
FUNK’S HYBRID G-88 
Funk’s G-88, another late ““G’’ Hybrid, was 
in limited commercial production in 1939 
and 1940. A good 10 days later than G-94, 
this hybrid is adapted to the long season 
sections of the corn belt. (Regions 5 and 6.) 
Remarkable for drought and chinch bug 
resistance with wide soil adaptation and 
has stalks that will stand up under vines 
that frequently infest river bottoms in the 
southern part of the corn belt. It is high 
eared and single eared, but also high yield- 
ing with sound grain. 

the Regions shown in color on this map. 
Please bear in mind, however, that local 
conditions may affect both adaptation 
and performance. Select the Funk’s ‘G”’ 
Hybrid that best fits your own require- 
ments. There is an adapted “'G”’ Hybrid 
for the conditions of your farm.

Hybrids adapted to these regions

FUNK’S HYBRID G-80 
: A beautiful, rapid-growing hybrid adapted © 
to the south central (Region 5) and south- 
ern corn belt (Region 6). 
G-80 has fine stalk quality, enabling it to 
stand up when storms level other types of 
corn. It is late enough in maturity to give 
high sialds in its adapted territory. Large 
eared and single eared, it withstands 
drought, chinch bugs, Stewart’s Disease and 
low fertility levels to produce a rich golden 
harvest of excellent quality. A winner in 
‘state yield tests and private trials, it is the 
answer to many of the corn growers’ prob- 
lems in the region to which it is adapted. 
Has an excellent feeding type ear that car- 
ries its size to the tip with kernels of un- 
usual depth. 
FUNK’S HYBRID G-135 
Funk’s G-135 is full season in maturity for 
early planting in Region 5 and medium to 
full season in Region 6. It has given excel- 
lent results on all soil ess but does espe- 
cially well on creek and river bottom land. 
This single-eared hybrid is noted for its 
excellent stalk quality and ability to stand 
up under chinch bug outbreaks and epi- 
demics of Stewart’s Disease and Discus 
stalk rot. G-135 is one of the several “G” _ 
hybrids which are late enough in maturity 
to excel the field selected corn commonly 
grown in the south central and southern © 
corn belt. Its rich golden ears are a joy to 
harvest. G-135 has demonstrated success- _ 
ful performance from Maryland to Kansas. _ 
It is the answer to demand for a hybrid 
really “weatherproofed” for the southern 
corn belt.
