WOOD'S VIRGINIA GROWN ENSILAGE CORNS 
Wood’s Virginia Grown Ensilage Corns 
Outyielded Other Varieties at Experiment Stations in 
Fifteen States 
Tests in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts and 
Minnesota prove that our ensilage corns yielded better than all 
other varieties. Note the following three-year summary:

Wood’s Eureka Ensilage 
Our superior strain has been field selected for many years. For 
our planting stock we select well-filled 12 -inch ears from large, 
strong stalks 14 feet tall or taller. At the Connecticut Experiment 
Station last year our Eureka was tested with stocks from three 
other leading growers and yielded 21.8 tons per acre: the others 
yielded 19.3, 14.9 and 13.7. By mail postpaid, y 2 peck 70c; peck 
$1.10; y 2 bushel $1.90; bushel $3.40. 
Not postpaid, 14 peck 45c; peck 70c; y 2 bushel $1.20; bushel $2.10; 
5-bushel lots $2.00 per bushel. 
Wood’s Virginia Ensilage 
The Delaware Experiment Station says: “For years “Wood’s Vir¬ 
ginia Ensilage ; has outyielded all other varieties, and we consider 
it the best ensilage corn for this State.” Not as tall as Pamunkey, 
but more stocky, and easier to handle through the cutterbox. It is 
adapted to a wide’territory and makes a good growth on medium 
poor soils. Ears large, 14 rows of deep grain on a small cob. 
By mail postpaid, y 2 peck 65c; pieck $1.00; y 2 bushel $1.70; bushel 
$3.05. 
Not postpaid, y 2 peck 40c; peck 60c; y 2 bushel $1.00; bushel $1.75; 
5-bushel lots $1.70 per bushel. 
Wood’s Pamunkey Ensilage 
The Heaviest Producer of All Ensilage Corns 
The Virginia Experiment Stations says: “The tallest and best 
ensilage corn; large, sturdy stalks, strong roots, no barren stalks, 
many with two large ears.” Massachusetts State College: “Wood’s 
Pamunkey made the most ensilage, both green and dry stover, and 
yielded 40 bushels grain per acre, and might be considered the best 
of all ensilage corns.” Michigan Experiment Station: “It grew 
considerably taller than any other variety and reached the right 
stage for ensilage before frost.” New Jersey Experiment Station: 
“Tallest growth and yielded almost double the average of 75 varie¬ 
ties tested three years.” Connecticut Experiment Station: “Aver¬ 
aged 20.2 tons green silage per acre.” By mail postpaid, y 2 peck 75c; 
peck $1.15; y 2 bushel $2.00; bushel $3.55. 
Not postpaid, y 2 peck 50c; peck 75c; y 2 bushel $1.30; bushel $2.25; 
5-bushel lots $2.15 per bushel. 
Cocke’s Prolific Ensilage 
Although it did not make quite as much green weight as our 
Pamunkey Ensilage (19 tons per acre), it made the most dry mat¬ 
ter of all corns (4.7 tons per acre) in a three-year Connecticut Ex¬ 
periment Station test, and averaged over 60 bushels grain per acre. 
Maryland State College says: “We use Wood’s Cocke’s Prolific 
exclusively on our dairy farm, as it made the highest yield of all 
varieties in a thirteen-year test, making over double the average 
yield for the State. It is also superior to other varieties in feeding 
value, in number of ears, making three long, slender ears per stalk, 
and is easier to handle and put through the cutterbox.” By mail 
postpaid, y 2 peck 75c; peck $1.15: y 2 bushel $2.00; bushel $3.55. 
Not postpaid, y 2 peck 50c; peck 75c; y 2 bushel $1.30; bushel $2.25; 
5-bushel lots $2.15 per bushel. 
Wood’s Yell ow Sweepstakes Ensilage 
Ten days earlier than most ensilage corns; makes high yields of 
grain: large ears, 12 inches long; extra large golden grains high in 
protein and sugar. Tn 1931 and 1932, at Connecticut Experiment 
Station, it averaged 69 bushels per acre, considerably more than 
any other field corn tested, and made 15 tons of ensilage. At Massa¬ 
chusetts State College it made 61 bushels per acre and 14 tons of 
'ensilage. By mail postpaid, y 2 peck 75c; peck $1.15; y 2 bushel $2.00; 
bushel $3.55. 
Not postpaid, y 2 peck 50c: peck 75c; y 2 bushel $1.30; bushel $2.25; 
5-bushel lots $2.15 per bushel. 
Blue Mountain Ensilage 
A selection from our Pamunkey Ensilage that is ten days earlier 
and makes hig yield of large, beautiful ears before frost in the 
North and in our mountain sections. It has the broadest grains of 
any ensilage corns. By mail postpaid, 14 peck 75c; peck $1.15; 
y 2 bushel $2.00; bushel $3.55. 
Not postpaid, 14 beck 5n C ; neck 75c; 14 bushel $1.30; bushel $2.25; 
5-bushel lots $2.15 per bushel. 
Virginia Horsetooth Ensilage 
Has the deepest grain of all ensilage corns. Heavy fodder, large 
ear; the highest yielding ensilage corn at the International Trial 
Fields at Kabelle-Brezelinge, Holland, averaging 4V 2 tons dry mat¬ 
ter per acre from 1928 to 1931. By mail postpaid, y 2 peck 65c; 
peck $1.00; y 2 bushel $1.65; bushel $2.95.
