get that

This is pay day.
This is when it all comes back,

machinery. The thinking. The work.
With a profit, if all the inputs did their
jobs.
The seed is a key. Some hybrids have a
superior capacity to produce. To give
you more corn, from the same soil and

Profit-minded corn growers have learned
Funk's G-Hybrids can be depended
upon to do just that. To produce top
yields. Year after year. Dependably. In
good seasons and —like many years—
when conditions are tough‘at critical
times.
Year after year, corn growers with
Funk's-G at work in their fields have
that good feeling.
That good feeling you get when, you
have dependable hybrids, from de
pendable people. Funk's G-Hybrids.

Cotton Still No. 1 Fiber
Cotton is consumed in
greater quantity than any
other fiber in the U.S. Last
year, its consumption was
70% greater than polyester’s,
twice as large as nylon’s and
nearly three tunes as much
as rayon’s. Market research
ers attribute this to the fact
that cotton has the best
combination of desired quali
ties for the largest range of
end uses.
