T. ’food and Sons, 
Seed Growers and Merchants, 
Richmond, 
Virginia, 
Gentlemen: 
For thirty years I have grown soy beans in a large 
way. Not until I tried out Wood's Yellow Soybeans did I find 
the success I was hoping‘for. You induced me to purchase fifty 
bushel3 of ’food's Yellow Soybeans for seed purposes at £2.85 a 
bushel. The price of the seed seemed high for an experiment. 
However, I put in fifty bushels of these beans this season and 
have just about finished harvesting the crop. It is all, and 
more than one could wish. The yield and quality is so far 
superior to any other Mammoth Yellow beans I have ever planted 
that I shall continue to plant only food's Yellows. The satis¬ 
factory results of this variety of soy beans when compared to 
Tokyos and other varieties leaves all competition out of the 
questioni 
Wood's Yellow Soybeans have a firm stem or stalk which 
supports them against heavy winds and makes them easy to harvest 
with a combine. Then, too, they have overcome our '-orst trouble 
in this section - popping out if a bit delayed in harvesting. 
The yield of "food's Yellows is phenomenal. Never before 
have I been able to get more than eighteen to twenty bushels to 
the acre, and with the fifty bushels of rood's Yellows planted 
by me this year I am harvesting between twenty-five and thirty 
bushels per acre and my other beans on different farms (ordinary 
Mammoth Yellows, Tokyos, etc.) are turning from eleven to sixteen 
bushels per acre. Same cultivation and same character of soil. 
I am grateful to you for calling to my attention '’food's 
Yellow Soybeans.

White Biloxi Soy Beans 
A distinct improvement over the regular Brown Biloxi, similar 
in growth but having finer stems and foliage, producing one-third 
to one-half more beans per acre. The yields of White Biloxi are 
averaging 25 bushels to the acre on our contracts. Particularly 
well adapted to stiff types of soils, although production is nearly 
as good on black loam. A late variety maturing in about 160 to 165 
days, and is adapted to the Coastal Plains Sections of North Caro¬ 
lina, South Carolina and the Gulf States. 
One of the best features of the White Biloxi Beans is that they 
can be pastured several times during their growing season and 
still produce a fine crop of beans. They are very dependable beans 
of strong vitality and will produce a fine crop under adverse dry 
conditions when other varieties have to be replanted. By mail post¬

Woodburn Yellow Dent Corn 
Yielded 1,343 bushels on 10 acres 
Iowa Silver King 
The Earliest Maturing, Heavy Yielding White Com 
Matures in 90 days; delicious roasting ears in 63 days. 
Truck growers throughout Eastern Carolina have found this far 
northern grown seed gets roasting ears on the market earlier, 
bringing a better price than any other corn. It is even earlier than 
Trucker’s Favorite; has fine, large ears, and yielded splendidly in 
our tests. An ideal field corn for mountain sections, where it has 
stood at the top in yield tests. Excellent for roasting ears or early 
feed in the South. Large, long ears; 16 rows of deep grain on a 
small cob; small, stocky stalk; drought resistant. Good on poor or 
rich land. By mail postpaid, qt. 30c; y z peck 75c; peck $1.20;

Indian Chief 
One of the Heaviest Yielding and Most Prolific Yellow Corns in, 
the South, except Mountain Sections. 
Matures in 128 days; roasting ears in 95 days. Averages two 
ears per stalk. Fourteen rows, very' sound, deep, flinty grain. 
Medium dent: golden color; very small white cob; long, tight 
shuck. Our improved strain has consistently outyielded all other 
strains of Indian Chief in southern tests. By mail postpaid, qt. 35c; 
y z peck 80c; peck $1.30 ; Va bushel $2.25. 
Not postpaid, y z pack 55c; peck 90c; y z bushel $1.55; bushel $2.75; 
5-bushel lots $2.60 per bushel. 
Grown for us by the breeder; considered to have the best strain 
in America. He has won the Ohio Championship and the Chicago 
International nearly every year. Although one of the earliest 
maturing of 178 corns in our tests last year it yielded with the 
best. Matures in 105 days; roasting ears in 78 days; 8*4 feet tall. 
Large, beautiful, show type; ears 9 to 10 inches long, 16 rows. Its 
deep, rich orange-colored grain in distinctive from any other 
variety. For a heavy yielding husking corn in the high mountains, 
or a bumper crop of early feed and roasting ears in the South, 
plant Woodburn Yellow. By mail postpaid, qt. 30o; y z peck 75c; 
peck $1.20; 14 bushel $2.05. 
Not postpaid, 14 peck 50c; peck 80c; 14 bushel $1.35; bushel $2.40;

Oklahoma Silvermine 
One of the largest eared, soundest and heaviest yielding white 
corns ever developed in the South. 
Matures in 125 days; roasting ears in 93 days. A much better 
yielder than Iowa Silvermine. So resistant to adverse southern 
conditions that Florida farmers pay a higher premium for it than 
for any other seed corn. 
“Forty acres yielded over 2,500 bushels, 20% more per acre than 
my regular corn. Wonderful shuck protection. Very heavy ears 
11 to 12 inches long. Medium dent. Very deep, large grain; small 
cob. Extremely sound, with no rotten corn. Strong, stocky stalks 
with leaves close together. Everybody says it is the finest corn 
they ever saw.”—A. R. Piercy, Powhatan County, Virginia.
