▼▼ UUUUUIII TV lllic for rich valleys of high 
altitude. It does not have the high percentage of unsound, soft 
corn like many large-eared varieties; the ears and grains are 
large, the stalk heavy, and has a smooth dent. In 1931 it made 
the highest yield at both Virginia Mountain Experiment Sta¬ 
tions, making 89 bushels per acre, the highest of 41 varieties 
tested at Blacksburg, and 68 bushels per acre, highest of 21 
varieties at Glade Spring, Va.; and yielded 72 bushels per acre* 
the second highest at Staunton, in the Valley of Virginia. 
Wood’s Pedigree Boone County Com 
Wood’s Pedigree Boone County 
-—Matures in 120 days. Grown for us by one of the foremost corn 
breeders from a strain that has been winning most of the impor¬ 
tant prizes for white corn for over thirty years, and has a pedi¬ 
gree unequalled for performance in Virginia. Its magnificent 
ears, 10 to 11 inches long and 8 inches around, have 20 to 22 
straight rows of deep grain, closely placed on a medium large 
cob, completely covering the tip. Our strain has been a consist¬ 
ent high yielder at all Virginia State Experiment Stations, taking 
first place in an eight-year test at Holland, Va., yielding 87 
bushels per acre last year; yielded 79 bushels per acre, the sec¬ 
ond highest of 24 white varieties, at Blacksburg, and made the 
highest average in a two-year test at Glade Spring, Va. 
S » ty, —Matures in 115 days. A very early white sorn 
I ver K no f° r high altitudes, or for early feed and roast- 
,TVI ''"'a ing ears in the South. Makes roasting ears in 
80 days. A good poor-land corn, drought-resistant, and will make 
a good ear on every stalk under most adverse conditions. Has 12 
to 14 rows of large, deep, rough dented grain, closely placed on a 
small cob. It makes the soundest ears of any soft corn and is 
easily ground. For several years we have intensively bred our 
strain for large, deep grain, larger ears, and have increased its 
yield considerably. Bast year our strain made the highest yield 
of 24 white varieties tested as the Blacksburg, Va., Experiment 
Station. It made the second highest average yield for white corn 
the last two years at the Glade Spring, Va., State Experiment 
Station; altitude, 3,600 feet. 
Wood’s Hybrid Early Yellow Dent 
—Matures in 105 days. In most of the Northern state experi¬ 
ment station tests hybrid corn is making new record yields, 
often a third more than standard varieties. The West Virginia 
University reports: "Made 90.2 bushels per acre; yields highest 
in tests throughout the state; most disease free; does not lodge.” 
Blacksburg, Va., reports: ‘‘Yielded over 75 bushels per acre, with 
96% marketable corn.” See page 3 for a full description. 
Clarage Early Yellow Dent. 
Garage Early Yellow Dent 
—Matures 95 days. 
The earliest and 
highest yielding ex¬ 
tra early corn for mountain altitudes of 2,000 to 4,000 feet, or 
for early feed or roasting ears for the South. 
D. T. Painter, County Agent, Wythe Co., Va., says: "Wood’s 
Clarage is certainly well adapted here at 3,000 feet elevation, 
maturing well before frost. The stalks are strong, of medium 
height and many have two and three ears. It yielded 53 bushels 
per acre.” 
B. G. Nicholson, Surry Co., N. C.: “We sold roasting ears from 
Wood’s Clarage 69 days after planting. It is one of the best early 
roasting ear corns on the market and we will increase our plant¬ 
ing next year.” 
—Matures in 110 days. Our new 
strain, grown in Northern Virginia 
almost on top of the Blue Ridge, 
has shown up exceptionally well at State Experiment Stations 
throughout the Northeast, from Illinois to Connecticut. Last 
year it made the highest yield at the Glade Spring, Va., Station; 
elevation, 3,600 feet. It averaged 71% bushels per acre, the high¬ 
est of 49 corns tested at Blacksburg, Va., in 1932 and 1931; eleva¬ 
tion, 2,300 feet. The large, sound, 10-inch ears carry 18 to 20 
rows of grain closely placed on a medium small, red cob. Short, 
stout stalk. An excellent corn for Northern States and high alti¬ 
tudes, and one of the best early feed 
corns for the South, making roasting 
ears in ninety days. A good poor land 
corn.

n.|t\/|| PN —Matures in 120 days. Our cer- 
Keid S 7^1 low Ltent titled prize-winning strain won 
3 sweepstakes at the Chicago In¬ 
ternational and at the Maryland Corn Show, and for the last five 
years at the Virginia Corn Show. It was the only strain to take 
the Gold Medal for yielding over 100 bushels per acre. It has 
large beautiful ears, 10% inches long and 7% inches around, 
rough dent, 18 to 22 straight rows of deep, wedge-shaped grain, 
tight on the cob, and filled out at butt and tip. It was the high¬ 
est yielding yellow corn in an eight-year test at Holland, Va., 
making 76 bushels per acre in 1931. At Williamsburg, Va., it 
made 78 bushels per acre, the highest yellow corn in 1931, and 
made the second highest average for 1931 and 1932.
