WOOD'S HYBRIDS 
Arasan Treated. Bred in the South 24 Years. Prolific 
Tight Shucks. Resist Weevil, Disease, Storm, Drought. 
WOOD'S S-240 YELLOW, FLINTY 
140 days. Our most weevil resistant, heaviest yielding yellow 
hybrid in the Southern Coastal area. Long tight shucks; heavy, 
solid ears and grain. Smooth dent. High vitamin, protein and 
feed value. Most prolific. Leaves wide, long and close together. 
Vigorous. Deep root system. Resists disease, storm, heat and 
drought. Superior for grain or silage. ‘'l like $-240 best of all 
hybrids. '—E. L. Lee, Pearl River, Miss. 
Most prolific in N. C. Coastal tests 4 years, superior shuck, in- 
sect resistance, grain quality, sucker habit and good yields; 105.5 
bu. per acre in the 1950 Southern test. 
Alabama. Highest yellow corn in 1950 Auburn Experiment 
Station test. They recommended it for Central and South Alabama 
where it had good yields, weevil resistance and grain quality. 
T. J. Sansbury's 50 acres of S-240, renowned as the best corn 
in Darlington Co., S. C., withstood a long drought, then a hurri- 
cane that severely damaged other corns, and yielding 100 bu. per 
acre, estimated, 1/3 more than Douthits Prolific. 
In Fla. experiment station tests it made the highest yield in 1947. 
In 1948 out-yielded local corns 51% in 5 tests. A Florida Agrono- 
mist says: “You can be justly proud of $-240." 
WOOD'S S-360 and S-361 WHITE FLINTY 
Most Weevil proof, High Yielding, Pure White Milling Corns 
for the Southern Coastal Area. Long Tight Shucks. Very Prolific. 
Bred in the Deep South from the most weevil resistant, flinty, high 
yielding Southern varieties. Will keep in the crib until other white 
milling corns are off the market and prices are high. Their hard 
sound grain makes the best quality corn meal, high in protein and 
food value, with delicious old-fashioned flavor. Superior for mak- 
ing grits, to crib for feed or cut for silage. Make healthy vigorous 
growth, strong leafy stalks, dark green color, deep spreading roots. 
Resist diseases, insects, heat, drought and hurricanes. 
S-360. 135 days. Averaged 129.4 bu. per acre 2 years in a 
Carolina Coastal test with excellent shuck, weevil resistance and 
grain quality. Ala. Experiment station recommends it as one of the 
highest yielding pure white corns for 3 years in Central and 
South Ala. Tops in 1950 North Ala. tests. 
S-360 won at the S. C. State Fair 2 years. T. S. DuBose, Sumter, 
S. C., planted it 6 inches apart for the 100-bu. Club prize. It had 2- 
3 good ears per stalk, vigorous dark green color, stood up in a storm 
that damaged nearby corn. Estimated to yield 150 bu. per acre. 
S-361. 138 days. Made over 100 bu. per acre for 3 years in a 
N. C. Coastal Experiment Station test, with excellent shuck, weevil 
resistance and grain quality, low in suckers. Had 218 ears per 
100 stalks. Only 3% of its ears had exposed tips, Dixie 18 had 4%, 
N.C. 27 9°%,, Dixie 17.27%, Dixie 22 andi 33 25744) J- A. Kinard, 
Co. Agt., Jasper, S. C., says: "Wood's $-361 and S-240 had great 
strength of stalk, very little weevil damage and top yields. 
WOOD'S S-350 and S-352 WHITE PROLIFIC 
130 days. For finest quality pure white corn meal in Cotton Belt. 
Bred from highest yielding Southern corns. Have big solid ears. 
Deep grain closely packed on small white cobs. High shelling per 
cent. Long tight shucks, dark green foliage, strong vigorous stalk. 
S-350 made 132.9 bu. per acre in a N. C. experiment station test, 
with top grain quality, shuck protection, and insect resistance. 
'S-350 had much longer ears and nearly doubled the yield of 
all other corns planted here.''"—C. O. Batchelor, Nash Co., N. C. 
S-352 should be the most popular white milling corn in the Cot- 
ton Belt. It made 126.9 bu. per acre in 1951 N. C. Northeast 
Coastal test, outyielding all hybrids popular in N. C., had good 
grain quality, was medium early, most prolific. 21] ears per 100 
stalks. Outyielded all pure white hybrids in Burke Co., N. C., test. 
Highest yielding white corn in 3 Ga. Upper Coastal tests. ''S-352 
outyielded 3 leading hybrids. | like it fine and will keep on plant- 
ing it."'"—A. M. Burrows, Sumter, Co., S. C. 
other corn, fertilized and cultivated alike. It 
stood 100% in Oct. with no insect damage. It 
is as hard and has as good shuck as | ever 
grew.''—T. R. Powers, Florence Co., S. C. 
Top weevil resistance in 1950 Ga. tests; had 
2%, weevily ears where others had up to 63%. 
WOOD'S S-315 RED COB PROLIFIC 
Heavy yielding white hybrid for Cotton Belt. 
Brings a premium for milling. Resists weevil. 
132 days. Very prolific. Sound flinty ears, big 
grain, small cob. High shelling per cent. Strong 
vigorous stalk and root. Long thick shucks. 
Makes finest pure white cornmeal. 
It averaged 106 bu. per acre in 3 N. © 
Coastal experiment station tests; was the most 
prolific, had good shuck and weevil resistance. 
It averaged 226 ears per 100 plants. Wood's 
hybrids made 4° of the 5 top yields in the 
Hertford test. S-315 outyielded all white corns. 
At Ga. experiment stations it outyielded other 
pure white corns 4 years in Mountain tests, and 
2 years in Limestone Valley and Piedmont tests; 
was low in weevily ears and very prolific. 
In the 11 Central and South Ala. 1950 experi- 
ment station tests it outyielded all pure white 
or yellow corns and had good weevil resistance. 
S. C. made 102.1 bu. per acre highest in 
Edisto test and 113.9 bu. in Clemson test. 
"S-315 is the best | ever grew, often 3 ears 
per stalk."’ J. T. Wright, Franklin Co., N. C.
