WOOD’S SOUTHERN PROLIFIC CORNS 
A bushel plants 5 to 6 acres 
RECOMMENDED FOR EASTERN VIRGINIA, NORTH AND SOUTH CAROLINA, 
GEORGIA, FLORIDA AND ALABAMA 
Biggs* Seven Ear 
■—Matures in 120 days. Earliest, most 
drought resistant, and best very pro¬ 
lific corn for medium to poor soil, or 
for highlands. Made the highest yield of 93 varieties tested on 
our experimental farm during the record drought of 1930. Aver¬ 
aged 53 bushels per acre, the second highest, in a three-year test 
at the North Carolina Coastal Experiment Station, with only 1% 
barren stalks, and the most prolific in 1932. It has two to three 
medium small sound ears per stalk, hard grain set close on a 
small cob, tip well covered, high shelling ijercentage, long tight 
shuck, weevil resistant, and a small stocky stalk. Second high¬ 
est average yield, 1931 and 1932, at North Carolina Mountain Ex¬ 
periment Station. Yielded 500 bushels on three acres at Scotland 
Neck, N. C. 
Mosby*s Prolific 
—Matures 125 days. Has the largest 
grain and ear of any prolific corn, 
making one to two large ears on every 
stalk. Short, stout stalk; medium small cob; sound grain. Third 
highest yielding white corn, Georgia Coastal Experiment Station 
in 1930. It led the 1929 Louisiana test. A good early prolific corn 
for medium to light soil, highlands, or for late planting. 
Wbod’s Dixie 
Hastings* Prolific 
Wood’s Dixie Com 
—Matures 120 days. Highest yielding pro¬ 
lific corn for average Southern conditions, 
consistently yielding at or near the top in 
all Southern State Coastal Experiment Stations from Virginia 
to Georgia. Makes two solid 10-inch ears on nearly every stalk; 
the grain is broad, deep and flinty, cob small, very high shelling 
percentage, shuck long and tight; weevil resistant. 
—Matures 132 days. A real prolific 
corn, making two or more solid ears 
on every stalk. No variety will out- 
yield it on rich soil with plenty of moisture, but should not be 
grown on poor land. Big, tall stalk; long, tight shuck, protecting 
the ears from weevil and worms. In 1932 it made the highest 
yield at the Holland, Va., State Experiment Station, averaging 
83 bushels per acre two years. It made 88 bushels per acre, the 
highest of 34 varieties tested at Williamsburg, Va., in 1931. Most 
prolific (88% having two or more ears) and second highest white 
corn, N. C. Coastal Station, 1931. Second highest, Georgia Coastal 
Station thirteen-year test, averaging 45 bushels per acre. High¬ 
est yield Florida, 1929. Highest shelling per centage (8714%) 
two Mississippi Experiment Stations. Highest yield thirteen 
Louisiana tests, 1932. 
Whatley’s Prolific Red Cob White Dent 
—Matures in 132 days. A very prolific and heavy yielding red 
cob corn on good soil in the far South. Similar to Hastings, 
though not as prolific, but has a slightly larger ear and grain. 
Tall, strong stalk, 2 to 4 ears on each; long, tight shuck, weevil 
resistant. Made highest yield thirteen-year test Georgia Coastal 
Experiment Station, averaging 48 bushels per acre. Highest 
yield at Columbia, S. C., Experiment Station, and second highest 
South Carolina Coastal Station in 1932. 
Douthit’s Prolific Red Cob White Dent 
—Matures in 130 days. Similar to Whatley’s Prolific, but several 
days earlier, slightly larger ears and not quite as prolific. Makes 
2 to 3 medium size ears per stalk. Small cob, high shelling per¬ 
centage; long, tight shuck protecting the ear well; tall, strong 
stalk. Developed in South Carolina and usually makes high yields 
in all South Carolina State tests. Made the highest yield in 1932 
in an average of the Pee Dee, Sandhill, and Coastal Experiment 
Station tests. Made second highest yield of 34 varieties at Wil¬ 
liamsburg, Va., Experiment Station, yielding 81 bushels per acre. 
Second highest yield 1931 and 1932 average 80 bushels per acre 
at Holland, Va., Experiment Station.

Wood’s Golden Prolific Com 
—Matures in 120 days. 
The highest yielding and 
most prolific yellow corn 
in almost every Southeastern State Experiment Station test. It 
makes two large ears on each stalk; the grain is large, flinty, 
deep golden color, medium dent, rows very close and tight, tip 
and butt well covered with grain, cob small, very high shelling 
percentage, large tight shuck to protect the ear, and is weevil 
resistant. 
•—Matures in 130 days. Our seed was 
bred and grown for us by two brothers 
who made the first and second highest 
yield in the North Carolina 4-H Club for the last two years, 
yielding 156 bushels per acre. On good land it makes two large 
ears per stalk, none barren. The tall, sturdy stalk has a fine root 
system, with no root rot or smut. Its deep grain is closely 
placed on a small cob. It averaged 56 bushels per acre, the high¬ 
est in a three-year test at the North Carolina Coastal Experi¬ 
ment Station. It averaged over 60 bushels per acre, the highest 
in a two-year test, at the South Caro¬ 
lina Pee Dee Experiment Station. At 
Gainesville, Fla., it made the highest 
yield in 1930 and the second highest in 
1929.
