Wherever you farm corn, here’s 
why youll be farther ahead by 
planting Hoffman Funk G Seed. 
Something real that “pays off” . . . is 
done for you here! Something NOT done 
by any other seed-corn concern. Results 
are amazing! Today, as a result, there is 
better corn and more of it on thousands 
of Eastern farms. Each year more folks 
realize better corn-crop profits—by chang- 
ing to the Hoffman-recommended Funk G 
hybrid from other hybrids used before. 
Pictured above, you see what’s going 
on (each year since 1936). Trained Hoff- 
man men MAKE SURE. They carefully 
check results in each of the many official 
GENUINE-research (every year) plant- 
ings. Here, the best of many hundreds of 
com strains must PROVE their merit for 
use in a particular area, or be discarded. 
Each planting is closely observed through- 
out the season. Because many other traits 
beside yield-weights are important; proper 
starting, behavior during storm, drought, 
cold spells, insect or disease attack. Leaf- 
area, stalk-structure, ear-cover, fast-finish 
ability, correct maturity.

Bred-in-ability for faster getaway 
is important later. Your corn gets 
ahead of weeds, beats moisture 
condition, beats summer drought by 
establishing sturdy plants early. 

BETTER 
DISEASE RESISTANCE 
It’s different than vaccinating pigs. 
But Funk G breeders use strong 
lines to resist blight and other dis- 
eases. Diseased areas quickly cork 
off and heal before disease organ- 
isms take over. 

on each year. In each main corn-growing 
area of the East. It gets help from corn 
growers that need help. Gets it faster... 
because of the way this widespread Hoff- 
man effort is geared up with Funk G 
breeding headquarters. 
That’s your big advantage in planting 
Funk G seed. What you just read about 
Hoffman “Fact Collectors” is duplicated 
across the Nation. By dozens of groups 
of trained men, also lined up with the 
same Funk G team. This truly all-Ameri- 
can corn team gets things done!

Funk G headquarters (Bloomington, Illi- 
nois) keeps accurate records of perform- 
ance in all areas of the country. Thus 
KNOWS the factors which, from previous 
plantings, will improve certain shortcom- 
ings. Knows how to apply the remedy, 
quickly, Not by “hit-or-miss” methods, but 
by means known to work. Correct blood 
lines are put together. Then planted 
quickly alongside other hybrids (Funk G 
and others) used in that particular area. 
Final selections thus earn their “G” num-
