they’re “youngsters” —only starting!

Features of Every 
Consider every corn plant in your field as a corn 
manufacturer with three major departments and 
you'll see how proper breeding and selection do 
get Hoffman customers more corn. 
THE POWER PLANT—The roots that gather 
moisture, minerals and other substances from the 
soil. All Funk G Hybrids have great root systems. 
Some are bred to get extra power out of thin soils 
—some to work well in rich loams. 
THE MANUFACTURING DEPARTMENT — 
The leaves of the plant are the only parts that 
manufacture food necessary to grow corn. So long 
as they are green, they are still working. Note this 
outstanding characteristic of all Funk G Hybrids. 
They are the leafiest corn plants you ever see— 
wide leaves, lots of them. And these leaves stay 
green (still working) all the way to maturity. 
THE WAREHOUSE- The stalk is where the 
food is stored—to be fed to the plant when it is 
growing, to be fed to the ear when it is maturing, 
to keep the stalk erect and alive long after the ear 
is dry. The strong stalks of Funk G Hybrids have 
the capacity to store the extra power and food— 
and to feed it to the proper part at the right time. 
Ask the man who has gotten more corn from Funk 
G Hybrids. He'll tell you how outstanding these 
three features were in his corn field.
