Yellow corn is better than any other single grain for getting high egg production and maintcining body weights of layers—so lowa 
Experiment Station found in 5-year tests. These old hens were still in heavy egg producticn with no evidence of molt when this photo 
was taken. Their ration consisted of whole corn, whole oats and 26 percent supplement which was fed by the free-choice method. 
IN ITS ADAPTED AREA, G-80 FEARS NO COMPETITION 
G-80 is one of the leading hybrids in popularity for 
the south central and southern corn belt. There are 
good reasons for this. In wet seasons and in dry 
seasons, it is a wonderful performer. It has a high 
degree of resistance to many insects, especially 
chinch bugs. G-80 is a top-notcher in producing 
heavy yields of big, golden ears with splendid feeding 
quality. If you can use a late maturing strain, you'll 
not go wrong in selecting this famous G- Hybrid. 
Helped Make the New World Record: Paul Peabody 
used G-80 as one of his three G-Hybrids to set his 
new official yield record of 191.64 bushels per acre. 
Although he planted thick, practically every stalk 
carried a full-sized ear. There were few nubbins. 
Tough as a Missouri Mule: G-80 lives up to the old 
statement, ‘tough as a Missouri mule.” It has a well- 
established record as an outstanding performer in 
dry seasons, and strangely enough it has proven to 
be a good performer in unusually wet early seasons 
of the past two years. This G-Hybrid starts off fast 
with a vigorous early growth and continues through 
the entire growing season. 
G-80 Has No Fear of Competition in its adapted 
area. Here are reports from three farmers who sub- 
jected this G-Hybrid to stiff tests against competitive 
strains of corn: 
Louis Ullsperger—“‘I planted seven different 
hybrids . . . Funk’s G-80 certainly was the winner 
in yield. It stood up almost 100 percent and seems 
to resist chinch bugs. It is a good feeding corn, too, 
My hogs are doing fine on it.” 
August Graf—He planted a dozen hybrids and 
found that G-80 topped them all. “I liked the stand- 
ability for machine picking, and G-80 produced 
better and more solid corn.” 
Bernard McHargue—“I bought some of another 
hybrid last season, and it cost me about $500. I'd 
just as well have had the higher yields all over my 
farm that I got from G-80,”
