WOOD'S SEED OATS 
High Germination. Double Cleaned. 
99°, Pure. New Bags. 
CERESAN TREATED to insure quicker germination in cold 
weather, better stands, stronger healthier plants, deeper roots, 
stronger stalks, larger heads free of smut and disease, 6 to 18% 
better yields, higher quality grain that brings top prices. 
Drill—2'/ bu. per acre; Winter oats in Jan. or Feb.; Spring 
oats March, April. Use 400 Ibs. 5-10-5. Top dress with nitrogen. 
Oats make excellent nurse crops for seeding grass and clovers. 
ANDREW. The Highest Yielding Spring Oat. 
New. Recommended in Va., Md. and the Upper South. 
Outyielded all spring oats in Va. tests. Matures early. Has 
big open heads, yellow grain, low hull 94, good weight per bu., 
strong straw, stands well. Taller than Clinton, same height as 
Columbia. Resists smut and Victoria blight but not crown rust. 
We have Columbia, White Spring and Clinton, all good spring 
varieties. Bad weather damaged the germination of most 
spring oats. There is not enough good seed in the U. S. We 
have Fulgrain, Lee, Letoria, Stanton and other winter oats 
which outyield spring oats if sown early. 
WOOD'S FULGRAIN 3. Best Oat for Spring in the South. 
Much more vigorous than ordinary Fulgrain. It is earlier, maturing be- 
fore hot weather and rust damage. Bred ten years thru severe Va. winters, 
it is more winter hardy. It resists storms, smut and the dread Victoria 
blight, which can wipe out other oats. It stools profusely, has wide dark 
green leaves, short sturdy erect straw, ideal to combine. Heads are 
long, well balanced and fruit heavily. Big rich plump grains, low in hull, 
high in feed value. High test weight. Tops 3 years in Pee Dee, S. C., 
tests, 10.5 bu. more than Fulgrain B.F.S. 
LEE COLD PROOF, Certified. High Yield Midwinter Sown. 
U.S.D.A. says: ‘Lee has been the leading winter oat for 25 years from 
Piedmont Georgia to Maryland, because of its exceptional vigor, hardi- 
ness, quality and yielding ability.” It made the highest average yields for 
11 years im Piedmont, Va., tests, for 3 years in Md., 4 in N. J., and Del. 
Made 107.8 bu. per acre in a N. C. test and 6!/4 tons of hay. We in- 
troduced Lee. Our reselected strain is the best. 
WINTER TURF. Onion Free. The hardiest of all oats. 
Ten days later than spring varieties. Our improved strain is much 
more prolific and heavier yielding than ordinary Winter Turf. It has 
enormous heads and heavy kernels; most satisfactory in spring planting. 
FORKEDEER. Winter hardy. Best for high elevations. Highest yields 
in mountain tests. Medium tall, stiff straw. Resists Victoria blight. 
ARLINGTON. Certified. Highest Yields in Upper South. For 5 years it 
outyielded other oats in grain, pasture and hay tests.

Gil Flowers, our chief plant breeder, shows how Wood's Improved Fuigrain strains 
(left) withstood a tornado that flattened other oats (right). 
Southern breeders and growers of small grain seed, growing 8,294 acres from the 
finest Registered or Certified stock. To avoid mixing only one variety is grown on 
a farm. No crop is planted where any other small grain was grown last season. All 
fields are carefully rogued, then inspected by Crop Improvement Associations.

CANADA FIELD PEAS. Excellent Spring Pasture or Hay. 
For heavy crops early to fatten or produce milk. Stock eat it greedily 
and thrive on it. Grows 4 to 6 feet. Graze when 6 to 10 inches high. Its 
roots gather nitrogen and improve the land. Adapted to any soil; thrives 
on land too poor for grain. Sow 75 lbs. per acre with 3 bus. of oats Jan. 
to March. 
Wood's Grain Pasture Mixture 
Furnishes more grazing in less time and at less cost than many other 
spring crops. It is a highly nutritious balanced diet that cannot cause 
bloating. It reduces grain requirements when feed costs are high, saves 
expensive labor in feeding, and returns greater profits. To utilize the full 
capacity of permanent pastures and give them a chance to recover from 
close grazing, experiment stations advise supplemental winter and early 
spring pastures. Small grains are cool climate plants and make more 
growth in cold weather than pasture grass or legume. Our mixture con- 
tains Arlington Oats, the new winter hardy variety that resists Southern 
diseases, stools out more, grows faster and earlier, grows upright, has 
wider leaves, and makes more winter growth and forage than other 
varieties. It also contains Rye Grass, Beardless Barley and Atlas Wheat 
which grow in colder weather than oat. Atlas wheat, the new Southern 
disease resistant variety, stools out more, has darker green foliage, more 
vigorous winter growth, and is the best wheat for pasture. It has Dwarf 
Essex Rape which stays green and palatable in the coldest weather, is high 
in vitamins and relished by all livestock, particularly hogs and poultry; 
Canada Field Peas and Hairy Vetch supply proteins for growth and 
warmth in cold weather and enrich the soil with nitrogen. It is the ideal 
nurse crop for seeding permanent pasture mixtures. Sow with a grain 
drill, 100 Ibs. per acre from January to April, the earlier the better. 
Use 400 Ibs. 5-10-5. It pays to top dress with nitrogen. Do not graze 
under 3 inches. 
Wood's Grain Hay Mixture 
Makes bumper crops of nutritious hay, easy to cure and relished by 
all livestock furnishing a balanced ration of proteins, vitamins and other 
food elements. It is much more productive and palatable than oats or 
any other crop sown alone. Excellent nurse crop for seeding permanent 
grass and clover as it comes off early. 
it contains Canada Field Peas, Hairy Vetch and Arlington Oats which 
are winter hardy, grow faster in cold weather, are taller and make more 
hay than other varieties, and stand up making it easy to harvest. Sow 100 
lbs. per acre. Fertilize well.
