Sales Supervisor 

He’ll Serve You 
the Year Around 
Your Funk’s G-Hybrid Representative makes available to you the improvements in 
corn continually being effected by the Funk Nation-wide Hybrid Corn Research 
Staff. He knows that serving you is a year-around job. . 
. A job that requires 
experience with the performance of Funk’s G-Hybrids under your farming condi- 
tions, and an understanding of the objectives and achievements of Funk Hybrid 
Corn Research. Most Funk Representatives have been on the job two, three, four 
or more years . 
. . and they’re well acquainted with the performance which may 
be expected from Funk’s G-Hybrid strains right in your community. 
Your Funk Representative wants to help 
you make more money raising corn. He knows 
the only sure way to do that is to be a sort 
of year-around partner with you, using his 
experience and information to make your 
corn growing operations more profitable. 
Here’s the year-around service program of 
your Funk Representative: 
PLANNING ... Right now he’s ready to help 
you select the hybrids best fitted for your 
needs. “‘Make your selections quickly,”’ he’ll 
probably urge, “‘because the demand for hy- 
brid seed is certain to be great this fall and 
winter.”’ In recent years some of the most 
popular Funk’s G-Hybrid seed supplies have 
been exhausted almost before the seed crop 
was assured in the fall. Don’t be surprised 
if your Funk Representative suggests you 
plant at least a limited acreage to some new 
Funk’s G-Hybrid. He’s always on the alert 
to have you get the most modern hybrid 
produced in the Funk nurseries—and rigidly 
proof-tested for your locality. 
DELIVERING ... Your Funk Representative 
will see that your seed is available well in

Just one additional word about your Funk Representative. 
If he hasn’t seen you as often as in other years, please re- 
‘stretch’ limited supplies of 
gasoline and tires. Now is the time to select the Funk’s 
G-Hybrids you will raise next season, so why don’t you 
write or call him and let him know the strains you prefer, 
the grade and number of bushels of each. It will only take 
a few minutes and that’s the way you can be most certain 
of having the best Funk’s G-Hybrids for planting next spring.

advance of planting time—early enough so 
you can check it in your own planter and 
make sure there’ll be no last minute delays 
when precious planting hours begin. 
PLANTING . . . During the planting period 
your Funk Representative is always ready 
to serve. If conditions make it necessary for 
you to replant a field or a part of a field, 
he’ll be on hand to help you get additional 
Funk’s G-Hybrid seed, if available, and all 
without cost to you. Both your Funk dealer 
and the whole Funk organization try to do 
everything possible to help you get a good 
corn crop next year... and every year. 
GROWING .. . Constantly, during the grow- 
ing season, your Funk Representative will 
be anxious to know how your crop o: Funk’s 
G-Hybrids is progressing. If you encounter 
problems that seem to defy ‘‘on the spot” 
analysis, your Funk Representative has at 
his call the services of the entire Funk Hybrid 
Corn Research Staff that is just as anxious 
as you to discover the causes of any corn 
growing difficulty you may encounter.
