ung plants. 

THE FUNK G ROOT SYSTEM: Roots 
are the power house in corn manu- 
facturing. Every Funk G Hybrid has 
a great heavy root system that goes 
wide and deep for the nutrients the 
plant must have. Damage by accident 
or insect attack that would kill the 
ordinary plant still leaves the Funk 
G Hybrid plant with ability to send 
up manufacturing power. Any root 
system can take in nutrients only if 
they are in moisture form. In times 
of drought, Funk G roots have four 
or five times as much chance of find- 
ing necessary moisture because of 
their very size. In good corn years, 
these roots have the capacity neces- 
sary to supply manufacturing power 
for a superb crop. Every G Hybrid 
has this great root system. 
THE FUNK G LEAF STRUCTURE: All 
manufacturing necessary to grow a 
plant and produce a good ear is done 
through the leaves. Everybody who 
sees a Funk G Hybrid for the first 
time remarks on its heavy leaf 
growth. Big, wide leaves set close to- 
gether—regular jungle growth. Those 
Many, Many extra square inches of 
leaf surface mean multiplied capacity 
to manufacture extra food. Again, 
this EXTRA capacity is your assur- 
ance of performance. It means abil- 


ity to make enough food for the ear 
even in adverse circumstances. 
Every G Hybrid has this heavy leaf 
structure. 
THE FUNK G “WAREHOUSE” STALK: 
Grasp a Funk G stalk some time and 
note how thick it is. Observe, at har- 
vest, how it is filled with juicy white 
pulp. The stalk is the warehouse of 
your corn plant, holding vast reserve 
supplies—furnishing it as needed for 
growth and ear manufacture. A Funk 
G stalk always holds a reserve sup- 
ply of food. This reserve is what en- 
ables it to meet emergencies with 
which a plant normally has to con- 
tend and still have enough food for 
the ear. This reserve is what keeps 
a Funk G Hybrid standing erect to 
harvest, even though you are weeks 
late getting at the job. This reserve 
is what enables a Funk G Hybrid to 
continue maturing a good ear during 
late summer droughts. Every G Hy- 
brid has this fine, sturdy stalk, able 
and ready to carry on through any 
emergency. 
These basic Funk G characteristics 
PLUS the special characteristics you 
need are your assurance of best corn 
performance. For out of these quali- 
ties come not only better yield, but 
other advantages, such as:
