WOOD’S VIRGINIA GROWN ENSILAGE CORNS 
Wood’s Pamunkey 
Ensilage 
Tlie Heaviest Producer of All 
Ensilage Corns 
Averaged 18% tons of silage per 
acre, the highest yield of both green 
silage and dry matter, in the sum¬ 
mary of four years of testing all the 
leading ensilage varieties at the 
eight leading Northern State Experi¬ 
ment Stations. 
Virginia Experiment Stations say 
it is the “Tallest and best ensilage 
corn; large, sturdy stalks that stand 
up when shorter varieties blow 
down; strong roots; no barren stalks, 
many with two large ears, and many 
ears over 12 inches long.”

Cocke’s Prolific 
Ensilage 
A week earlier than Pamunkey, 
more compact, easier to handle, and 
yields more grain. Not only one of 
the best ensilage corns, but is one of 
the heaviest yielding field corns, es¬ 
pecially suited for grain production 
in the South where a very prolific, 
hard, flinty, weevil-resistant corn is 
needed; made 50 bushels per acre— 
the highest in a test at Sanford, Fla. 
In 1933 it yielded 99 bushels per 
acre, the highest ever recorded in the 
■Williamsburg, Va., test, averaging- 
86 bushels for three years. In a thir¬ 
teen year Maryland Experiment Sta¬ 
tion test it made the most ensilage, 
the best feeding value, and was the 
easiest to put through the cutter box.

Wood’s West B ranch 
Sweepstakes 
Deep red color; earliest maturing 
Standard ensilage. Popular in New 
York and New England where season 
is short. Ohio Experiment Station 
says our strain is “More vigorous 
than ordinary West Branch or Lan¬ 
caster Surecrop; very attractive, 
uniform, erect and leafy.” At Penn. 
State in 1934 our strain yielded a 
third more than local West Branch 
and had “thicker, larger ears and 
grain.”

Wood’s Old Virginia 
Ensilage 
Averaged 78 bushels of grain per 
acre In the three-year Williamsburg, 
Va., Experiment Station test and 
made more silage than any other en¬ 
silage corn. Yielded 71 bushels per 
acre in the 1932 Illinois test. The 
Delaware Experiment Station says: 
“For years it has outyielded all other 
varieties, and we consider it the best 
ensilage corn for Delaware.” The 
most jiopular ensilage corn in North¬ 
eastern Ohio because of its thickly 
leaved, stocky, compact growth, with 
large ear and deep grain.

Wood’s Eureka 
Ensilage 
Our improved strain is far supe¬ 
rior to ordinary Eureka Ensilage. In 
1932, at the Connecticut Experiment 
Station, it was tested with stock 
from three other leading growers 
and yielded 21.8 tons per acre; the 
others yielded 19.3, 14.9, and 13.7. In 
1930 it yielded 31 tons per acre in a 
New York State Experiment Station 
test. It made the most stover per 
acre in the 1933 N. C. Mountain 
Branch Station, and in a three-year 
Virginia Mountain Branch Station 
test.

BlueMountain Ensilage 
The broadest grain of any ensilage 
corn. Ten days earlier than Pamun¬ 
key. Popular with dairymen who 
want their ensilage corn to mature 
a heavy yield of grain before frost. 
It made 70 bushels per acre, the 
highest yield of twenty-six varieties 
tested at Staunton, Va.

Wood’s Yellow 
Sweepstakes Ensilage 
Two weeks earlier than white 
silage varieties. Averaged 64 bushels 
per acre, the highest yield of any 
standard ensilage corn in the four- 
year summary of leading Northern 
Experiment Station tests. Has the 
largest, broadest grain of any yellow 
corn. Deep golden color, large ears, 
12 inches long. In 1934 it made 24 
tons per acre, the highest recorded 
yield in the Rhode Island tests. 
Highest yield at Penn. State in 1933, 
standing up during the hurricane 
better than any other. Yielded 19 
tons per acre in three New York 
State tests.
