G-114’S STANDABILITY IS STORMTESTED 
WAYNE CAMPBELL, GOTHENBURG, NEBRASKA, writes: “‘l am very well pleased with Funk's G-114 
corn. We had a very bad windstorm and a lot of corn blew down, but mine stood up nice 
and straight. My Dad had 50 acres of another corn, and had to replant all of it. | drilled 
wheat in my corn stalks, but Dad’s was blown down so badly that we could not drill it.” 
Through storm after storm, G-114 continues to demonstrate its / 
remarkable standing qualities to farmers all across the northern ae 
corn belt. It has been one of the most talked of hybrids since the j— ~.,, 
Armistice Day storm of 1940. After that storm, literally hundreds | Se 
of customers reported they harvested their G-114 fields with me- 
chanical pickers when neighbors had to pick other hybrids by hand. 
G-114 holds by far the highest four-year percentage for erect 
plants in the official corn Performance Tests of both Illinois, 
88.1% (northeastern section) and northern Iowa, 87.9%. The 
percentages of erect plants for G-114 are 7.1% higher than the 
next best hybrid in northern Iowa and 8.4% more erect plants 
than its nearest competitor in Illinois northeastern section.

It’s a Pleasure to Pick G-114 — Mechanically or by hand, G-114 
picks “easy.”’ The ears are hung 
relatively low. The shanks are 
unusually strong and short. All 
during the growing season, the 
ears hug the stalk closely. Then 
when they’re ripe, they lower to 
an ideal position for swift, clean 
husking. There are practically no 
dropped ears. Short strong stalks 
assure standability through 
summer, fall and winter.
