A Real Corn For Short 

for Region 2; early for Region 3. 
yields on almost any type of soil 
eared, and the ears are set at con- 
venient picking height on a strong, 
medium-short stalk. The kernels are 
slightly rough, making it a good 
feeding corn. 
DEVELOPED FOR FARMS IN 
REGIONS 1 AND 2 
ADAPTATION: Matures in less than 100 
days. A good full season corn for Region 1; 
medium for Region 2; early for Region 3. 
G-1 has also given remarkable results in 
high altitude areas. 
Can Be Planted Early: G-1 can be planted 
without injury early in the season while the 
ground is still cold. It has a medium short 
stalk with medium length ears firmly attached 
with a short shank. Kernels are medium 
dented, making G-1 an excellent feeding 
type corn. 
Seasons 
ADAPTATION: G-7 
is a full season hy- 
brid for Region 1; 
mediumtofull season 
can be planted early in cold

YIELDS A BIG HARVEST 
ADAPTATION: Full season in south half of 
Region 1 and in north half of Region 2. 
Medium in the lower part of Region 2 and 
early in Region 3. Adapted to many soil con- 
ditions and resists drouth. 
Easy to Harvest, Good to Feed: G-28 produces 
a single ear of medium rough corn which is 
especially popular with feeders and breeders. 
Animals eat it well and gain rapidly. G-28 is 
easily harvested by hand or with a mechanical 
picker because its stalks hold the ears in place 
all winter if necessary. The ears have a large 
diameter with kernels well set, further simpli- 
fying the problem of harvesting with a me- 
chanical picker.

of G-28 that show what this Funk hybrid is producing for 
farmers in the northern part of the corn belt,
