crop.”—Harrison A. Bullard, Norfolk 
Co., Mass. 
“Your Funk G 6 has everything that

a wonderful ear that husks easily 
and the fodder is leafy and makes 
excellent feed.’“—Raymond F. Deal, 
Mercer Co., Pa. 
“G 94 was the best silage corn I 
ever raised and | have been filling 
my silo every year ever since 1918. 
And it was planted on ground that 
had been in corn the two years be- 
fore."—F, D. Jones, Fayette Co., 
W. Va: 
“Your corn sto6d Up-Gnd | was 
able to get it all with the corn har- 
vester without ‘scraping’ the ground 
as | have had to do previously.”’—

Farm), New Castle Co., Delaware:

right. It hasea*large root area and 
picks very=good..with. picker.!’—Elmer

“Your G 10 has done much better 
than anyone could reasonably expect.

seen and | have had more than forty 
years’ farming experience. Our Funk 
G silage hybrid was ideal.”—Charles 
K. Sipes, Somerset Co., Pa. 
“My G Hybrids are better than 
ever. I think one reason for large 
ears is that I used the planter plates 
you recommend and as a result the 
stalks are farther apart than usual. 
We specialize on poultry and the 
grain is what we want.”—Howard 
Basten, Ulster Co., N. Y.
