“Planted the last of my Funk G 
seed June 15th, without fertilizer. 
This was the poorest corn season in 
30 years, but mine eared up and 
ripened well, while only about 10% 
of other corns ripened.”—K.E. Joseph, 
Huron Co., Ohio. 
“Have been growing Funk G Hy- 
brids seven years. It outyields all the 
corn around here. | like it fine and 
have ordered 10 bu. (Rounds) for 
‘48.”—W. C. Welsh, Kent Co., Del. 
“Any comment | might make as to 
your Funk G 10 corn would be to 
praise it as the best corn | have 
ever grown.” — Dean Treat, Monroe 
Co., N. Y.

“As long as we raise corn it will 
be Funk G 10. Its root system has 
no equal. In a dry summer, it still 
grew when other corn was down 
flat. Leaves 5 inches wide. Stalks 
like sugar-cane. If the Pilgrims could 
return and see what they thanked 
God for, and what we have today, 
we would have more than one 
Thanksgiving.” — Harry Paddock, 
Hampshire Co., Mass. 
“I planted your Funk G 94, which 
was far better than the three other 
advertised hybrids | also planted. It 
husked cleaner with the 2-row picker. 
You get a healthy stalk. It stands 
the cold and wet better for early 
planting. I think more folks should 
plant the large round kernels. Am 
sure they won’t plant Flats any more. 
Thanks for your better corn.”—M. J. 
Chronister, York Co., Pa. 
“Your G 10 yielded much better 
than expected. Growing season un- 
favorable. Soil condition just fair. 
Attention limited because of illness. 
Stalks stood up through dashing 
rains, heavy windstorms. Rugged 
roots. Superior stalk growth. Had 
no leaf blight, no ear worms. Ears 
50% heavier than my Dent corn of 
same size. Twenty and more rows 
of grain. | had planted round kernel 
seed.”’—J. J. Decker, Cattaraugus Co., 
N. Y. 
“| have been growing Funk G corn 
for four years and have had excel- 
lent results.’—Francis Shultz, Brad- 
ford Co., Pa.

“There just isn’t any corn equal to 
your Funk G Hybrid.”—Marvin Volk, 
Hunterdon Co., N. J. 
“Had | planted all Funk G, would 
have had 2 more corn this fall. It 
stood ue in fine shape. Had no leaf 
blight. Ears large, ripened fine.’’“— 
Geo. R. Davidson, Clearfield Co., Pa. 
“I've grown Funk G for ensilage 
for several years. Get 15 to 18 tons 
per acre. It stands up well. Leaves 
stay green, also the husks. Several 
neighbors helped fill silos around 
here and all say mine is the best 
ensilage they’ve seen.’”—John F. 
Jones, Harford Co., Md. 
“Enter my order for Funk G 94 in 
Round Kernels. Their cost is less and 
I get full ears, with plenty of kernels 
on each ear.’—Dr. Grosvenor White, 
New Haven Co., Conn. 
“After a month of drought, and 
then floods for weeks, we picked a 
good crop of Funk G corn. Free from 
disease. | think we've all seen pic- 
tures of wonderful cornfields in other 
states, but they were nowhere near 
home. When one gets this kind of 
corn on his own farm (at today’s 
price), it surely does look good.”— 
Lloyd D. Becker, Erie Co., N. Y. 
“Your Funk G is more to my liking 
than any corn I ever planted. In 
spite of late planting it came through 
with a good crop for the crib. | 
noticed a greater freedom from smut. 
It stands well—is strongly rooted. | 
recommend it for 2,300 feet above 
sea level.”—F. R. Sabol, Cambria, Pa. 


















“Planted half of my own seed 
corn, half of Funk G 10. All the 
same treatment. Got 3 bu. more per 
row from the Funk. Lost about $400 
by planting my own seed—I would 
better have thrown it away. Have 
as nice a crib of G 10 as you would 
want to see.’—C. N. Wingert, Indi- 
ana Co., Pa. 
“My Funk G corn all stood up 
well and wasn’t bothered with dis- 
ease. I| helped fill silos on five farms 
and the Funk corn was the best we 
handled.”—Fred Passvello, Delaware 
Co., N. Y. 
“This year I planted Funk G and 
one other brand of hybrid. Funk’s 
ripened earlier than the other. My 
G 6 is ready for the crib and is the 
only corn in this part of the country 
that is.’—Clark P. Darrah, Bradford 
Co., Pa. 
“Your Funk G corn interested most 
everyone in this community. Field 
was wet, but germination perfect. 
The round kernels grew and pro- 
duced just as well as the flats. Any- 
one can order them with confidence. 
I am ordering all round seed at quite 
a saving over flats.”—Ray Scuffham, 
Otsego Co., N. Y. 
“| have grown corn for 50 years 
and Funk G is the best corn | have 
had. Stalks were still green when 
the corn was ripe. Stood up well.”’— 
John Lebrecht, Rensselaer Co., N. Y. 
“| plant Funk G corn for ensilage. 
In a severe wind, stalks held upright 
in the ground. This was worth $5 
an acre.“—Fred Michels, Onondaga 
Co., N. Y.
