FIELD CORNS <0> Wooc/s Super Strains 
Wood’s Hybrid Yellow Dent. 
Wood’s Hybrid Early Yellow Dent 
STRAIN 23-A—For mountain valleys of Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia, 
Maryland and Pennsylvania. Matures in 105 days. No corn of the same ma¬ 
turity will outyield it even on poor land or in dry seasons. It is disease and cold- 
resistant and can be planted early. Every stalk bears a uniform large ear eight 
inches long with solid, deep grain close together on a small cob. The stalk is 
strong and sturdy with a strong root system. Plant close in the row. Our Hybrid 
corn stood at the top in the West Virginia and Ohio State Experiment tests. 
I. M. Andrews. Wise Co., Va., reports: “Wood’s Hybrid did exceptionally well, 
yielding fifty bushels to the acre in spite of a very dry season.” 
Quart 50c: % peck $1.10; peck $1.85: %. bushel $3.35; bushel $6.30, postpaid.

Our Super Strains of field corns are not just better strains of good varieties. They are the best strains 
that the most scientific corn-breeding methods have produced for the sections for which they are recom¬ 
mended. The size of your corn crop depends largely on the seeds you plant, for poor seed are worse than 
poor land. Planting corn of the very best strains of well-selected, acclimated, adapted corns makes for 
maximum yields. Make your aim “more corn from fewer acres” by planting Wood’s Super Strains and 
lower your cost of production.

Clarage Early Yellow Dent 
STRAIN 17-A—The highest yielding corn that will mature in 95 days. Recom¬ 
mended for altitudes of 2,000 to 4,000 feet; for early feed and roasting ears. It 
made the world’s record for yield, 176 bushels to the acre, in Ohio and stood at 
the top in the West Virginia high altitude test. The Virginia Experiment Sta¬ 
tions report it the earliest and heaviest yielding, extra early field corn. 
Virginia Coastal Station reports: “Clarage is just the corn we have been seek¬ 
ing for early feed and hogging down. It outyielded twelve leading early varieties; 
makes one to two good, sound 8-inch ears on every stalk; is considerably earlier 
than Learning; suffers very little from weevil damage; shuck covers tip well; 
grain set close on a small cob, and well filled at butt and tip; medium dent; short, 
stocky stalk with ears held just right.” 
F. H. Heflin, Taylor Co.. W. Va.: “Wood’s Clarage was the earliest and best 
corn grown in this section.” 
E. A. Hendley, Anson Co., N. C.: “Clarage is a 90-day com that is a 90-day 
corn. It has many two and three-eared stalks. It came up fully to everything 
you claim for it.” 
Wood’s Southern Snowflake 
STRAIN 12-A—An excellent general purpose white corn; in 95 days it makes 
tender roasting ears; matures in 120 days. For five years we have been improv¬ 
ing this old reliable corn, selecting only from stalks with two large fine ears. 
Until last year it made the highest yield of 26 white corns on our farm. In 1932 
it was the highest yielding corn tested at the North Carolina Coastal Experiment 
Station. 
Glades Supply Company, in the Florida Everglades, says: “It is the best early 
market roasting ear corn. It is early; each stalk has two ears, yields double as 
many roasting ears as other varieties. The ears are uniformly large, of excellent 
quality and bring the top market price.” The shuck covers the tip, excluding 
worms, and the* mature corn is hard, sound and weevil-resistant. 
Wood’s Golden Prolific 
STRAIN 16-A—The most prolific yellow corn in almost every Southeastern Ex¬ 
periment Station test; matures in 120 days. A yellow corn that will yield with 
the best white corns and has a long, tight shuck that protects it. from worms and 
weevil. It has established a fine record, making the highest yield of all yellow 
corns at the South Carolina and Georgia Coastal Experiment Stations and the 
three Virginia Experiment Stations, yielding 92 bushels to the acre in one test. 
It was the second highest yielding yellow corn at two Tennessee Experiment 
Stations. It makes two large ears on nearly every stalk; the grain is large and 
flinty; deep golden color; medium dent; rows very close and straight; tip and 
butt well covered; small cob: very high shelling percentage, and is weevil- 
resistant. 
Wood’s Improved White Dent 
STRAIN 25-A—In 1928, from approximately 10,000 bushels, we selected 100 per¬ 
fect ears from each lot grown by fourteen leading corn growers. Each ear was 
planted in a separate row and self-fertilized by hand. Only rows making the 
highest yields with the strongest stalks and the right type of ear, free of disease, 
were saved. After elimination, we had left about 1,000 of the strongest and most 
virile strains, which we allowed to pollinate freely to produce our planting stock. 
Last year this strain yielded more than any other in a test of twenty-eight varie¬ 
ties at the Williamsburg, Va., Experiment Station and yielded 89 bushels per acre 
at the Holland, Va., Station. Matures in 120 days. 
Wood’s Dixie 
STRAIN 29-A—The highest yielding prolific white corn for average Southern 
conditions. Two large ears to nearly every stalk; high shelling percentage; ma¬ 
tures in 120 days. It made the highest yield of more than thirty varieties tested 
two years at both Virginia Coastal Experiment Stations, yielding 82 bushels to the 
acre at Williamsburg, and 99% bushels at Holland. It stood second in an average 
of two-year tests at both South Carolina Experiment Stations, yielding 61% 
bushels to the acre and shelling 88.37 per cent at Florence. At the Georgia Coastal 
Experiment Station it made about 50 bushels to the acre, and the highest yield at 
the Louisiana Experiment Station. The ears are about 10 inches long and very 
sound; the shuck is long and tight; many claim it makes the best meal.
