On farms big and small all over the East and North, the answer is the 
same, “We're way ahead with Funk G Hybrids.” Picture at far left shows 
a corn barn chuck full (extra cribs had to be built inside to hold this 
year’s crop) on the vast Hershey Estates, Dauphin County, Pa. And look 
at the smile on the face of Herman Croshaw, Burlington County, N. J. 
He’s really proud of his Funk G husking corn! Above are Walter Dence 
and his son in a field of Funk G silage corn on their farm in Onondaga 
County, N. Y. This was judged by many folks as one of the best fields 
of ensilage corn in the whole State of New York. Picture at right shows 
a field ensilage harvester on the Walker-Gordon Dairy Farms, Middlesex 
County, N. J., cutting splendid Funk G ensilage for their large herd. 
On all sizes of farms, under widely different growing conditions 
throughout the Eastern territory, G Hybrids are CONSISTENTLY GOOD, 
YEAR AFTER YEAR. The man who wants MORE CORN depends on 
Funk G for crib corn and silage. Good years or bad, he knows he gets 
MORE CORN EVERY YEAR with dependable Hoffman Funk G Hybrids.

offered, many men are now planting different G numbers, 
and getting even better yields. 
For, in addition to a breeding program that operates 
continuously to strengthen basic characteristics, you have 
the benefits of the Hoffman Funk research organization 
right in this territory which is striving constantly to in- 
crease your corn yields. 
Hoffman/’s Part in 
“More Corn for You’’ 
The efforts of Hoffman research men, headed by L. L. Hug, 
have increased the pay of corn farmers in this area by 
hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. These men have 
found out which G Hybrid will do best under any set of 
conditions, and, in doing this, they have helped make 
each corn acre yield more—in ear corn and silage. But 
their research has gone beyond this to help you get more 
corn. They have helped develop husking strains for areas 
where no corn had been safe before. They have revolu- 
tionized corn ensilage matters. Today, it’s heavy tonnage 
of high nutrition feed—versus old-time, heavy-water, low- 
feed content. They are learning the “how” of beetle 
control, using airplane-sprayed DDT—a program vital to 
folks in certain areas. 
These Hoffman G Hybrid Research programs are not 
just l-year affairs. It’s a never-ending, most thorough pro- 
gram, pointing toward even better corn yields. Out of just 
this kind of real research work have come these splendid 
Funk G Hybrids of today. When any improvement can 
be made, only this exhaustive research can produce it. 
With this program of breeding and research behind 
Funk G Hybrids, it’s easy to see why the man who plants 
them is always way ahead. 
ORDER YOUR Funk G 
Hybrid Seed Corn NOW! 
Descriptions of different Funk G Hybrids do not appear 
in Hoffman Catalogs. ‘Les’ Hug contends that because 
each hybrid is a specialist, it should be assigned to its job 
only after all growing conditions are known. This is what 
gives BEST results, and that’s what you want. 
So, if you’ve never planted Funk G Hybrids, you'll find 
a space on the order blank which enables you to state just 
what your conditions are. With these facts, Hoffman re- 
search men can supply you with the seed that will do best 
for you, whether for either silage or crib corn. Be sure to 
specify which seed you want. There are special G Hybrids 
for each of these duties. If you already know your G 
number, mark it in the space provided. 
Save Money on Your 
Funk G Seed 
Certain Funk G Hybrid kernel sizes do save you money— 
definitely! Up to 32% in seed cost. In 1 bushel “Medium 
Small Rounds” there are 10,920 more kernels than in 1 
bushel “Large Flats’“—enough extra kernels to plant an- 
other acre! And you save $2.15 in seed cost, too. 
This lower-cost seed produces exactly the same fine crop 
(ears or ensilage). Each kernel of this highly bred seed— 
flat, round, thick, thin—has exactly the same germ plasm 
—same blood lines—same fertility. 
All you do to make this saving is use the proper planter 
plates for the seed you plant—something you have to do, 
anyway. Price list quotes Funk G seed—all of IDENTICAL 
YIELDABILITY. Consider this saving!
