Yes, year after year Funk G Hybrids come up with Top Performance. For husking or ensilage, early or full 
season, if the right variety is selected for your needs, Funk G Corns will do you a “bang-up”’ job, consistent with 
soil fertility and available moisture. They have acquired an enviable reputation over the last eleven years. 
12-Year Record Through Virginia 
FUNK G-SO 
_ Well known for its outstanding and con- 
sistent performance in this area. It is a 
proved Corn for all-round use. Can be 
relied on for good yields of rich yellow ears 
well above average in size, with deep kernels. 
Fodder medium to large, with many beauti- 
fulleaves. Noted for standing up even during 
severe storms. 
FUNK G-94 
An excellent hybrid strain. While not 
expected to yield as much on the average 
as G-80, it has several advantages. It is 
somewhat earlier in maturity, fodder is 
somewhat smaller and ears not quite so 
large in diameter. These characteristics 
make it adaptable to a wider range of soils 
and weather and it requires less moisture 
and fertility to produce solid, well-matured 
Corn. 
FUNK G.-98 
A Funk strain that is relatively new to 
this area. A Funk executive confides in us 
that ‘‘this is my pick of all Funk Corns for 
the Valley, excluding higher altitudes to the 
west.’’ It was the highest yielder in trial 
plots from Roanoke to Loudon counties 
last year. Ears large, with very deep, golden 
yellow kernels on small cob. Fodder medium 
and resistant to both drought and Corn 
borer. Long ears are easy to husk. 
FUNK G-99 
Another rather new Funk Corn developed 
a little ahead of G-98. Both were developed 
from strains of the old reliable Lancaster 
Sure Crop. Has attained outstanding re- 
sults in the two years since it was introduced 
here. Fodder medium and cob small, with 
18 to 20 rows of medium to dark yellow 
kernels.

same. Each lot accurately graded

No ‘‘misses”’ to cut down your yields. 
Highest germination. 
FUNK G.-711 
Strictly a late, heavy silage Corn adapted 
for late silage and refilling. Use G-135 for 
your regular ensilage. G-711 produces mas- 
sive foliage and great stalk height. 
FUNK G-135 
The great silage Corn and the most widely 
used in the Eastern territory. Frequent re- 
ports of 20 to 22 tons per acre, entire field 
average. Highly nutritious and yields the 
greatest proportion of grain to total green 
weight. 
FUNK G-145 
Sometimes referred to as an improved 
G-135, but parentage is different. Has same 
maturity as G-135 and fodder is equally 
tall, but ears are lower on the stalk. Was 
designed as a husking Corn for the farmer 
in this area but is actually a dual-purpose 
Corn, suitable for both husking and ensilage. 
Stands up exceptionally well, with a very 
high resistance to Corn borer and stock rob.

he medium-sized ear is rather large in 
diameter and bears long rich golden yellow

Ensilage Corn 
Eureka. 115 days. A first-class sort for 
either ensilage or feeding, if allowed to 
mature. Very tall stalks, 12 to 15 feet high; 
large white kernels. A favorite for filling 
silos. When to be used as ensilage, it should 
be cut while in blossom. It is better to cut 
it early than too late.
