Every summer, somewhere—5 Star Funk’s G-Hybrids have to face long 
dry spells. Other varieties may fire badly and fail, while under the same 
conditions, G-Hybrids pick up and make a crop after rain comes! Roots 
figure in this. But plants, too! Funk’s G-Hybrids have bred-in capacity 
to extract, conserve and use most effectively the moisture that is avail- 
able. Careful breeding selection has emphasized this quality in 5-Star 
G-Hybrids. This improvement program continues, year after year, in 
Research Plots located in every important corn growing area. 
It's hard to believe, but it’s true . . . That fifty gallons of water are 
needed to produce a good ear of corn. Put it another way. Three 
barrels of water were used by the corn plants pictured at the right to 
make those three ears. When water is scarce—then you need a hybrid 
that stretches the limited supply most effectively. Depend on Funk’s G!
