WOOD’S TREATED OATS 
COLUMBIA SPRING OATS 
An early maturing and heavy yielding spring oat. A selection from 
Fulghum. Seven to ten days earlier, more uniform, taller, more erect, 
larger heads, heavier, plumper grain, and can be planted a week later and 
still mature before hot weather and rust damage. It yielded 79 bushels 
per acre while other spring planted oats yielded 40 to 55 bushels. Large, 
heavy, well-filled heads, reddish gray color, awnless. Already the leading 
spring oat in the South. 
LEE COLD-PROOF OATS 
Grown from Certified Seed. Its extreme winter resistance allows earlier 
planting than other oats. It produced more hay than any other spring 
sown oat in a North Carolina test, a fourth more than Fulghum, and grows 
a foot taller. Its tremendous heads are laden with extra heavy grain 
weighing 40 lbs. per bushel. Our strain yielded 95 bushels per acre in one 
test to 51 for Fulghum. 
WHITE SPRING OATS 
A good strain of white oats that makes good yields of feed and grain 
in higher altitudes and in the North. It makes big heads, large grain of 
excellent quality, and tall straw. 
SWEDISH SELECT OATS 
The heavier yielding, extra heavy, plump, white oat for which cattle¬ 
men and horse breeders always pay a substantial premium. Its tall stalks 
and tremendous heads yield heavy crops of both grain and hay in the 
cooler mountain sections and northern states. 
rjsft: Smut-infectecl oats. Kight: Ceresan treated. 
Wood’s Seed Oats aro treated with Ceresan to pre¬ 
vent smut and other diseases, insure good stands, 
vigorous growth, taller, stronger stalks, larger 
heads, plumper grains, and to increase yields up to 
20 hushels per acre. They are heavily recleaned, 
99% pure, 90% germination, have large heavy ker¬ 
nels, and require S less seed per acre. Sow 2 hus. 
per acre for grain, 3 hus. for hay in early spring, 
as oats thrive in cool weather. Seed hed should he 
well prepared, firm heneath, mellow on top. Apply 
<100 Ihs. WOOD’S STANDARD FDRTIDIZDB. 
CHUFAS Darth Almonds 
or G-rass Nuts 
Columbian Oats, light row on left, matured earlier than any other oat at our 
experiment farm. The TT. S. Dept, of Agriculture says: “It is desirable for 
spring seeding, matures early, ijlants are taller than Eurt, more viniform, heads 
are larger and distinctly more erect.” 
CERTIFIED KATAHDIN POTATOES 
The Katahdin, also originated by the U. S. Department of 
Agriculture, is a relative of the Chippewa. Slightly later in ma¬ 
turity, a little lighter colored flesh, and hard to tell apart in the 
bin, but can be ea.sily identified by the plant in the field. The 
Katahdin, originated in Maine, has become established as one of 
the leading varieties in that state. Reports indicate a large 
switch in acreage from Cobblers and Green Mountains, because 
they are producing a much higher percentage of No. 1 smooth 
potatoes of excellent shape, and have the aliility to maintain this 
desiratile shape under adverse soil and climatic conditions. The 
Katahdin, like the ('hippewa. has very shall'’w eyes with crisp 
white flesh and distinctly dt^sirable cooking q ';,mieg j.g lughly 
resistant to disease and one of the best keeping potatoes. 
Hogs not only fatten quickly on them, V>ut the 
meat is sweeter than when corn-fed; some claim 
it is eciual to that of peanut-fed hogs. Any .land 
suitable for corn, cotton or peanuts will make a 
profitable crop of chufas. but they do best on light 
sandy soils. Plant from April 1st till .July 1st in 
2h to 3-foot rows, dropping three to five chufas 
together, 15 to 18 inches apart in the row, and 
cover 2 inches deep. In the fall pull a few plants 
with the roots and give your hogs and poultry a 
taste, and they will attend to the harvesting. 1 to

North Dakota Grown Irish Cobblers 
Our results with North Dakota potatoes, in comparison to 
Maine Grown Seed, have been 'so satisfactory that we are again 
offering them with the utmost confidence. iMr. \V. O. Strong, 
County -Vgent, of Acconiac County, ' says: “With reference to 
North Dakota Certified Cobblers, these potatoes are increasing in 
popularity, particularly throughout Accomac, County. These seed 
have been doing very well in our tests.” North Dakota Grown 
Seed showed the highest average yield <if all varieties of potatoes 
tested in Ifflli). 
Owing to shortage of seed potatoes in Maine. Noi'th Dakota 
Seed are more reasonalile in price and more economical for plant¬ 
ing this season. We can .supply both Selected and Certified. 
CERTIFIED CHIPPEWA POTATOES 
This out'standing new potato, developed by the U. S. Department 
of Agriculture, has the general features of the Cobbler, extra 
earliness, but with shallow eyes. Resistant to disease and in 
official test's from Maine to Florida it has yielded consistently 
higher than the Cobbler and Green Mountain. We first introduced 
this new potato two years ago and reports from our customers are 
of the highest praise. From our seed grown in Caroline County, 
Va., for two succes'.sivo year;-., Chippewa won first prize at the 
Virginia State Fair. On the Richmond Market Chippewa Potatoes 
have been commending a large premium over other varieties, .“nd 
housewives arc more than pleased with their fine 'eating qualities 
and appeai'ance.
