highest yielding prolific corn for average Southern conditions. 
Two large sound ten-inch ears to the stalk; broad, deep, flinty 
grain; small white cob; very high shelling per cent; shorter, 
stronger stalk than most prolific corns; resistant to smut and root 
rot. In 1931 and 1932 it averaged 85 bushels per acre, the highest 
yield of 34 varieties in the Williamsburg, Va., test. Made the 
..highest yield of any white variety in three-year experiment sta¬ 
tion tests at both Chatham, Va., and at Holland, Va., averaging 
69 bushels per acre. In 1933 it made the highest average yield 
in tests at all four South Carolina State Experiment Stations. 
The S. C. Coast Experiment Station says: “Wood’s Dixie made 
the highest yield ever tested here in 1933, and the highest aver¬ 
age yield for three years. Weevil resistant. Heavy long shuck 
protecting the ears. Large ear and grain. Earlier than other pro¬ 
lific corns, and can be planted later, avoiding wire worm dam¬ 
age.” 
Matures in 132 days; roasting ears in 
98 days; 11 feet 1 tall. Very prolific, 
averaging 2% ears per stalk. No 
variety will outyield it on rich soil with abundant moisture, but 
should not be grown on poor land. White flinty grain on small 
white cob; long, tight shuck protecting the ear from weevil and 
worms. It averaged 87 bushels per acre, the highest yield of 34 
varieties tested three years at Williamsburg, Va. It yielded 110 
bushels per acre, the highest of 30 varieties, in the 1932 Holland, 
Va., Experiment Station test. It made the highest yield in 13 
Louisiana, Experiment Station tests in 1932.

ern Experiment Station tests. Sixteen straight rows of large 
flinty grain, deep golden color. Small cob. Tip and butt well cov¬ 
ered. Long tight shuck. In 1933 it outyielded 80 varieties at our 
experimental farm. It holds the record for any yellow corn at 
the Williamsburg, Va., State Experiment Station, 93 bushels per 
acre. Highest yield and most silage of any yellow corn in the 
Staunton. Va., test. 
S. C. Coast Experiment Station: “It is the highest yielding 
yellow corn we ever tested. Yielded 60 bushels per acre, higher 
than our best local white varieties. Shelled out 88 per cent grain, 
a record at this station. Ears medium large and practically free 
from weevil.”
