YELLOW CERTIFIED HYBRIDS 
VPI 802. 127 days. The new hybrid recom- 
mended in Southern Piedmont and Eastern Vir- 
ginia that received so much publicity for its high 
yields. It has outyielded U. S. 262 and U. S. 357 
7 bu. per acre in 15 tests, is earlier and has less 
moisture at harvest. Good husk and quality grain. 
Resists leaf blight and stalk rot. 
VPI 645. 117 days. Outstanding new early hy- 
brid recommended in Western and Northern Pied- 
mont Virginia. Superior to U. S. 13 anywhere it is 
adapted, outyielding it over 5 bu. per acre in 16 
experiment station tests, similar to it, but does not 
dry out as fast as its leaves stay green longer, im- 
proving its resistance to stalk breakage and mak- 
ing it easier to harvest by machinery. Has excel- 
lent standability, medium tall, medium fodder, 
husks turn brown before stalk does. Long smooth 
ear. Resists leaf blight and stalk rot. It out- 
yielded U. S. 505 4 bu. per acre in 23 tests. 
DIXIE 82. 133 days. Bred from N. C. 27 and 
Dixie 18. Between them in characteristics and 
maturity. Outyields them in the Cotton Belt. 
Stands better than N. C. 27. Not as tall as Dixie 18. 
Flinty, weevil resistant. Good grain quality. 
DIXIE 18. 140 days. Flinty; best shuck. Most 
prolific. Tall, strong stalks. Outstanding yield and 
weevil resistance from Coastal N. C. to Fla. 
N. C. 27. 129 days. Popular, recommended 
through the Cotton Belt where it has made high 
yields in experiment station tests. It has excellent 
shuck and grain quality, is flinty and weevil re- 
sistant, has good stalk and root, white cob. 
U. S. 578. 130 days. U. S. 262 improved in re- 
sistance to leaf blight, stalk rot and other South- 
ern diseases, stronger stalk, sounder ear, higher 
yield. Replacing it. Averaged 10 bu. per acre 
more in 5 Eastern Virginia tests and 23 bu. more 
in 3 Maryland tests with far less broken stalks. 
Has strong roots, big ear, smooth dent, excellent 
grain quality, good husk, large leafy plant.V.P.1. 
recommends it for grain in Coast and Southern 
Piedmont and for silage all over Virginia. 
U. S. 357A. 130 days. Very popular feed corn 
in Virginia for its vigorous dark green stalk, good 
root, large sound ear and good yield. 
U. S. 262A. 130 days. V.P.I. recommends it in 
Va. Coast and Piedmont for heavy yield. Large 
hard, sound ears, good husk, blight resistance. 
U. S$. 99A. 130 days. Heavy yield of large sound 
ears with big broad golden grain, green vigorous, 
leafy foliage, excellent for grain or silage. 
U.S. 13. 116 days. Most popular certified hybrid. 
Recommended throughout the Southern Mountain 
Area for its standability and top yields of ex- 
cellent feed corn at experiment stations and on 
farms, winning many memberships in the 100 
Bu. Corn Club. Matures early, in time to plant 
fall grains. Good for early hogging down in 
Eastern Virginia. Has long beautiful sound ears, 
deep grain, high shelling per cent, excellent stalk 
and root, and loose shuck, ideal picker type. 
ILL. 200, KY. 103, 117 days. Early. Good ear. 
IOWA 939, 110 days. For high altitudes. 
OHIO C-54, 110 days. Virginia recommends it for 
Mountains and hogging or early feed in Coastal 
Area where its small sturdy stalks permit planting 
almost twice as thick as late corns, yielding as 
much but maturing in time to follow with small 
grains. Excellent roots; dark green leaves highly 
disease resistant; good husk dries while plant is 
still green, low ears, ideal picker type. 
T. W. WOOD & SONS 
Greater yield, larger ears and taller, stronger 
stalks of Hybrid Sweepstakes Ensilage (left), 
compared to a good commercial variety. It has 
wide leaves, stocky stalks, deep roots; stands 
up and is easy to harvest by hand or machine. 
“Hybrid Sweepstakes stood up well, resisted 
corn borers; had large stalks and good ears for 
silage or shucking. We were well pleased with 
it.’—G. W. Grove, Augusta Co., Va. 
We treat all hybrid with ARASAN and DDT 
against weevil, disease, seedling blight in cold 
damp spells, and to increase stands up to Vath. 
Our hybrid drying and processing plants lead 
the South. 9 types of machines remove all but 
good strong germinating kernels. 
WHITE CERTIFIED HYBRIDS 
OHIO W-64. 108 days. Earliest. V.P.1. recom- 
mends it for high altitudes. Ideal for hogging 
in the East or extra early feed for mechanical 
picker. Very low ears, short stocky stalk, small 
fodder, strong roots. Resists disease, aphids and 
corn borer. 
KY. 203. 121 days. Popular early pure white 
milling corn. Recommended by the experiment 
station in Northeast North Carolina where it 
made good yields, averaged 218 ears on 100 
plants, was early, low in moisture at harvest, 
had low stalks, and matures bumper crops early 
when milling corn is scarce, bringing big 
premiums. It has good roots and shuck, big 
sound ears, deep grain, high shelling per cent. 
KY. 72B. Similar to Ky. 203 but-yielded far 
more in N. C. and Eastern Virginia tests, had 
better shucks, higher grain and milling quality, 
less moisture and more stalks had 2 ears. 
IND. 750. 120 days. Recommended in Virginia. 
High yielding and milling quality. Big sound 
ears placed low on short strong stalks. Excellent 
roots. Ideal picker type. Resists smut, blight, 
stalk rot, and corn borer. Early; white cob. 
IND. 909. 119 days. Improvement on Ind. 750. 
Earlier, better roots and yield. Averaged 9 bu. 
per acre more in 5 Eastern Virginia tests, with 
less moisture at harvest. Top milling quality. 
Big broad sound white grain, white cob. 
N. C. 31. 128 days. New pure white corn. Big 
ears, good milling quality and standability. 
DIXIE 17. 128 days. High yields in Cotton Belt.

STANLEY’S CROW REPELLENT 
RICHMOND, 
WOOD’S ENSILAGE CORNS 
HYBRID SWEEPSTAKES ENSILAGE 
Silage 109 days. Fast vigorous growth. Makes 
more combined silage, grain, protein, vitamins 
and feeding value per acre than other silage 
corns of similar maturity, from the South to 
New England. It has big strong stalks and roots. 
Its long wide leaves are close together and stay 
green after the ears ripen. Its silage is palatable 
and nutritious. It yields as many ears as the 
best grain hybrids; has larger ears and grain, 
with deep golden color. Many use it for grain. 
It averaged over 20 tons of silage per acre in 
2 Southern experiment station tests, 14/2 to 
42% more than other corns, making the highest 
green or dry weight. It made 262 tons per 
acre, highest in a Rhode Island test. One of the 
highest yielding and strongest stalked yellow 
corns in a Georgia Mountain test. 
WOOD’S PAMUNKEY, White Ensilage 
Silage 115 days. Averaged 23 tons per acre for 
6 years in 9 state tests. Has an abundance of 
nutritious ears, usually a foot long, and broad 
thick foliage. Grows 12 to 15 feet tall with 
strong roots and sturdy stalks which stand up 
when shorter corns blow down, making it easier 
to put in the silo. Silage is nutritious and palat- 
able. ‘For three years it yielded more than any 
other corn; 8 acres fills a large silo; stalks 16 
feet tall; big around as an ear of corn. Two 
large ears per stalk; sound grain.’’—M. B. Smith, 
Spartanburg Co., S. C. “For years it has made 
outstanding yields in the N. C. mountains.’’— 
P. R. Elam, Co. Agt., Madison Co., N. C. 
YELLOW SWEEPSTAKES ENSILAGE 
Silage 110 days. Very large, broad grain; deep 
golden color. Large ears a foot long. Earlier 
than Eureka; has more vitamin and _ feeding 
value; averaged 15 bu. more grain for 6 years 
in 9 states. Made much more silage per acre 
than Eureka in N. C. Mountains tests. 
VIRGINIA EUREKA, White Ensilage 
Silage 115 days. Our strain had larger ears, 
more grain and yielded 20% more silage than 
ordinary Eureka in the Mass. Experiment Station 
test. At the Conn. Station our strain made 22 
tons per acre, to 15 and 13 tons for Eureka from 
other growers. In a hurricane, ordinary Eureka 
was blown down, but ours was not damaged. 
It made the highest weight of grain and stover 
in a 3-year N. J. test of 75 varieties. 
EARLY EUREKA ENSILAGE, WHITE 
Silage 112 days. Similar to Va. Eureka, yields 
almost as much silage with more grain, making 
the silage more nutritious and palatable. 
OLD VIRGINIA ENSILAGE, WHITE 
Silage 115 days. Heavy yield of silage and 
grain. High feeding value. Leafy, stocky, com- 
pact, easy to harvest; large white ears; deep 
grain; good silage or husking. ‘Best silage we 
ever had.’’—G. -H. June, Huron Co., Ohio. 
MAMMOTH ENSILAGE, WHITE 
Silage 116 days. Outyielded other open pol- 
linated corns 3 years in experiment station tests. 
Had 4 to 8 more leaves per plant. Heavy grain 
producer, big ears, deep grain, high feed value. 
Compact growth, easy to harvest.
