BE SURE TO GET AN 
ADAPTED HYBRID 
The above tests will help you select the hybrids best suited to your locality We sug-aest 
you to try a portion of your crop in two hybrids to determine the best for your particular 
farm. These tests were made during- fairly normal seasons. The increased yield from 
hybrids should be much greater during drought years or severe storms. Except in'unadapted 
sections, each Wood’s Hybrid consistently outyielded the best local varieties yielding two 
to three times the ten-year average for all corn. 
Wood’s Hybrid White Prolific. 
Two 12-inch ears per stalk 
Wood’s Hybrid Golden Prolific. Heavy yielding- southern com 
WOOD’S HYBRID GOLDEN PROLIFIC 
Highest Yielding and Most Prolific Yellow Com for the South 
126 days. Only yellow corn to outyield all white varieties in 
North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Coastal Plain Virginia tests. 
Highest average yield for three years of any yellow corn in evei^ 
state corn tests from Eastern Virginia on south. It averaged 17% 
more than Whatley’s and twice as much as .Tarvis in the Georgia 
tests. It holds the record yield for yellow corn for all South Caro¬ 
lina tests. It outyielded their leading yellow v^ariety 15% in Ten¬ 
nessee. In spite of intense heat and drought it yielded 100 bushels 
per acre on our farm, outyielding 17?i varieties from all over the 
' country—the most prolific and best shuck protection. 
! Florida Experiment Station: “V'ood’s Hybrid Golden Prolific, the 
only hybrid in use in this state for several years, is a very good 
' early > ellow corn for hogs.” 
‘‘I will plant all my corn with Wood’s Hybrid Golden Prolific. It 
’ yielded twice as much as our best local varieties and had long, 
f- tight shucks protecting the ears from weevil and birds. Iowa Hy- 
f brid corn grown beside it was completely destroyed as the ears 
stuck out of the shuck about three inches.”—Claude Rountree, 
Thomas County, Georgia. 
WOOD’S HYBRID YELLOW DENT 
Highest Yielding Yellow Com for Middle Atlantic States 
Matures in 115 days; roasting ears in 85 days. A cross between. 
Yellow Dent and Lancaster Surecrop inbreds with the same 
wide adaptation. For three years it made the highest average 
yield of any yellow corn in Piedmont and Mountain Virginia Ex¬ 
periment Stations, outyielding 27 white and yellow corns at Chat¬ 
ham, Va. Other tests indicate it is the best yellow corn for Western 
North Carolina, Kentucky, lower altitudes of West Virginia. Mary- 
land, Southern Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey. Heaviest 
yielding early feed corn farther south. It should be planted a, 
fourth closer in the row. Short, stocky stalk, each bearing a large, 
sound, beautiful ear 11 inches long. 
“I planted two hybrid corns from different seedsmen and found 
Wood’s most adaptable, disease-resistant and strongest roots. It is 
storm-resistant and yields well above all other corns. I have placed 
my order with you for myself and neighbors.” — G. D. Dutrow, 
Frederick County, Maryland. 
“My regular corn was washed down by heavy rains and didn’t do 
anything. Wood’s Hybrid i^ellow Dent came through and made a 
good yield. It had the best stalk I ever saw. I am planting my 
entire crop in it next year.”—I. W. Hayes, Lenoir County, N. C. 
WOOD’S HYBRID WHITE DENT 
Highest Yielding "White Com for Middle Atlantic States 
125 days. It averaged 62 bushels per acre, highest of all corns 
for three years at six State experiment stations, covering every 
section of Virginia. In the Williamsburg, Va., test one strain 
yielded 97% bushels per acre, while 24 leading varieties yielded 
from 57.5 bushels to 82.8 bushels. Ears very sound, about a foot 
long, deep grain with good shuck protection. Tests indicate it is 
the highest yielding white corn for Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware, 
lower altitudes of West Virginia and Western Carolina,-. • • 
WOOD’S HYBRID WHITE PROLIFIC 
Heaviest Yielding White Com for the South 
127 days. Averaged 20% higher yield than the best local varie¬ 
ties in Southern Experiment Station tests. It consistently out- 
yielded Hasting’s, Whatley’s, Neale’s Paymaster, and many other 
popular southern varieties at seven Alabama experiment stations, 
and made exceptionally high yields in the Georgia and South Caro¬ 
lina Coastal Plain tests. Most prolific, strongest stalk and deepest 
roots of 41 hybrids and varieties in one test, only 1 V 2 % of the stalks 
lodging, compared to 13% for the leading variety. Largest ear of 
any prolific corn, deep, sound grain; ears well protected with a long 
shuck.
