Wood’s Virginia Grown Pamunkey Ensilage Corn 
Wood's Pamunkey Ensilage 
(116 Days). — Av- 
tons of 
silage per acre, the 
highest of all varieties in a six-year summary of experiment 
station tests in nine states. It was the tallest of 63 varieties in 
a Massachusetts test, yielding 33 tons of green silage and 7 
tons of dry matter per acre. It has strong, deep roots and large, 
sturdy stalks that stand up when shorter varieties blow down. 
“I have grown Wood’s Pamunkey Ensilage three years. It 
yields more tonnage than any other corn. It grows 16 feet tall, 
with stalks as big around as an ear of corn. It makes a big yield 
of sound grain; two 10-inch ears to the stalk. Grain large, broad 
and flinty. Eight acres fill a large silo. I filled seven silos this 
year and had twelve acres left for feed corn.”—M. B. Smith, 
Spartanburg County, South Carolina. 
“During a bad drought on thin land it filled my silos 3 times as 
fast as other corns.”—V. O. Blalock, Person Co., N. C.

percentage of grain. It has 
husking corn if not cut for silage. It averaged 70 bushels of 
grain per acre for five years at the Williamsburg, Va., Experi¬ 
ment Station. G. H. June, Greenwich, Ohio, said: “Wood’s Old 
Virginia made the best crop of ensilage we ever had.” The Dela¬ 
ware Experiment Station says: “For years Wood’s Virginia En¬ 
silage has outyielded all other varieties in our tests.”

eraged 15 bushels more grain per acre in the six-year summary 
of tests in nine states. It has the largest, broadest grain of any 
yellow corn, deep golden color, and large ears 12 inches long. It 
averaged 23 tons of silage per acre in three New York tests, and 
24 tons per acre—the highest record yield—in the Rhode Island 
tests, with a “good strength of stalk.” 
Certified Eureka Ensilage 
(112 Days).—Our strain 
had larger ears, more 
grain, and yielded 20% 
more silage than ordinary Virginia Eureka in the 1935 Massa¬ 
chusetts Experiment Station test. At the Connecticut Experi¬ 
ment Station our strain made 22 tons per acre,, compared to 19 
tons, 15 tons and 13 tons for Eureka Ensilage from three other 
leading growers. In a terrific hurricane, ordinary Eureka was 
blown down, but Certified Eureka in adjoining rows was not dam¬ 
aged. Our Eureka yielded the highest weight of grain and stover 
in a three-year New Jersey Experiment Station test of 75 va¬ 
rieties.

(Ill Days). — The 
broadest, largest 
grain of any en¬ 
silage com, early maturing, and very popular with Ohio, West 
Virginia and Pennsylvania dairymen who want lots of grain in 
their silage. It is compact and easy to put through the cutter- 
box. Our seed is grown on a farm in the Blue Ridge section that 
has produced this original strain for a generation.

standard ensilage variety. Our strain grown in the mountain 
section has repeatedly outyielded seed from other sources. In a 
1935 Massachusetts test it yielded 22 tons of silage per acre, 26% 
more than ordinary West Branch Sweepstakes. It was taller and 
better eared than other strains in the New York test. At Penn. 
State ours yielded a third more than local West Branch.
