WOOD'S SOUTHERN HYBRIDS | 
Bred in the South 25 Years. Prolific. Resist Weevil, Disease, Storm, Drought. 
“For 4 years $-240 made bumper crops of 
big, flinty ears, placed low on strong stalks; 
heavy shucks; resists weevil, disease and 
drouth.’’—E. C. Cooper, Cumberland Co., N. C. 
WOOD’S S-240 YELLOW, FLINTY 
138 days. Our most weevil resistant, heaviest 
yielding yellow cribbing corn 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 
roots. Resists disease, storm, heat and drought. 
Superior for grain or silage. 
In N. C. Coastal tests 6 years it had excellent 
shuck, insect resistance, grain quality, sucker 
habit and good yields up to 105.5 bu. per acre. 
In South and Mid-Alabama tests it had flinty 
kernels, good weevil resistance, grain quality 
and yields, highest yellow corn in a test at 
Auburn. 
In a Ga. test it had only 2% weevily ears 
where others had up to 63%. 
First prize at 1953 S. C. State Fair. 
“10 acres of $-240 doubled the yield of my 
other corn, fertilized and cultivated alike. It 
stood 100% in Oct. with no insect damage. It 
is as hard and has as good shuck as | ever 
grew.’’—T. R. Powers, Florence Co., S. C. 
WOOD'S S-315W Red Cob Prolific 
132 days. Tops for milling. Outyielded other 
pure white corns in Ga. and Ala. tests. 114 bu. 
per acre at Clemson, S$. C. .Big flinty grain, 
sound ears, tight shuck, weevil resistant. 
deep sound flinty grain, small cob. 
Flinty, Heavy Shucks. Arasan Treated. 
To be adapted we breed hybrids in each 
Southern Region against insects, leaf, stalk, root 
and ear rot diseases, for greater yields, and 
ears placed lower on stronger stalks. 
D. A. Shelley, Co. Agt., Barnwell, S. C., says, 
“WWood’s S-211 and S-240 had little or no weevil 
damage, made very good yields despite extreme 
drought and are worthy of more widespread 
planting. S-352 was best in 1953.” 
Pyrenone dust on stored corn prevents weevil 
damage all season. Harmless to eat. Page 68. 
WOOD'S S-210 GOLDEN PROLIFIC 
127 days. Our best early feed or hogging 
corn for the Deep South. Better main crop corn 
than S-211 and N. C. 27 in the Piedmont, is ear- 
lier, has shorter stalks. Big beautiful sound ears, 
deep flinty golden grain. High feed value. Small 
white cob, high shelling percent. Good shuck, 
resists weevil, disease, heat, drought and storms. 
Deep roots, wide leaves, dark green color. Vig- 
orous. Grows off fast, matures early, dries 
quickly. Highest yellow corn in a Clemson, 
S. C., test, 8 bu. more than N. C. 27. Earliest 
yellow corn, lowest ears, tops in yield in Ga. 
and Ala., Coast and Piedmont tests. Recom- 
mended in Piedmont Ga. where it outyielded 
Dixie 18 in 17 tests for 3 years. 
WOOD’S S-361, White, Flinty, Prolific 
138 days. High Yield, Weevil proof, long 
shuck. Crib in the Deep South. Pure white. Top 
price for corn meal or grits. 
WOOD'S S-352 WHITE PROLIFIC 
130 days. Our best pure white milling corn in 
the Cotton Belt. Averaged 115 bu. per acre 
3 years in Northeast N. C. tests, 6 bu. more 
than any other pure white or yellow corn; 211 
ears per 100 stalks in one test; matured early, 
7% less grain moisture at harvest than Latham’s 
Double. 
In 12 Piedmont Ga. tests 2 years, early yet 
outyielded other approved pure white corns. 
In 1952 Fla. test, tops in yield, 10% more 
than Dixie 18, same weevil resistance, eared 
a foot lower, matured earliest. “It outyielded 
3 leading hybrids. | like it fine, will keep on 
planting it.”“—A. M. Burrows, Sumter, S. C. 
WOOD'S V-125W WHITE DENT 
118 days, roasting ears 78 days. Best early 
milling corn. New corn brings big premium in 
late summer. Dark green vigorous plants, grow 
off fast, resist drought, disease or storm, ma- 
ture and dry quickly. Low sturdy stalk. Excel- 
lent picker type. Recommended in Southern 
Piedmont and Eastern Va. Made highest average 
yield of any corn in all Va. experiment station 
tests 2 years, early, top grain quality, low in 
moisture at harvest. Far outyielded all corns 
3 years in Mason Co., W. Va. tests. Tested and 
approved by the Ga. Experiment Station. Best 
early corn in the Fla. test. 
Highest yield for two years in all N. C. Pied- 
mont tests, proving it to be the most drought 
resistant, was earliest, driest grain at harvest, 
only 12.7% moisture, ears only about 31/2 ft. 
high. Made 116.7 bu. per acre in the North- 
east N. C. test, tops in yield and grain quality. 
Averaged 112 bu. per acre, top white corn in 
3 Md. tests. 
$-211. Note 2 big solid ears on each stalk. 
WOOD’S S-211 GOLDEN PROLIFIC 
132 days. For bumper crops of nutritious feed 
corn in the Cotton Belt. Better quality ear, grain, 
flintiness, shuck, weevil and disease resistance, 
stands up better and withstands much more hot 
dry weather than S-210, N. C. 27, and most 
hybrids, and is better for the Carolina Coastal 
area. Deep sound kernel on small white cob. 
High shelling per cent. Tested and approved 
by the N. C. experiment station in Piedmont and 
Coast, who report good shuck protection, weevil 
resistance, grain quality, ears placed low and 
few suckers. At Auburn, Ala., had good yield, 
weevil resistance and grain quality. 
Prominent N. C. seed growers declared it ‘’the 
best eared up” and highest yielding corn they 
ever saw, 2 to 3 good ears per stalk. 
WOOD’S V-50 made 212.6 bu. acre 
125 days. Unsurpassed for bumper crops of 
sound nutritious yellow feed corn. Has a long 
line of record yields at experiment stations in 
the Upper South outyielding other yellow corns 
for years in Eastern Va., 162 bu. per acre in 
one test. Highest average yield in all N. C. 
expt. sta. tests one year, making a record 144.8 
bu. per acre in one test. Highest yellow corn 
2 years in 4 Clemson, S. C. tests. Was tops in 
North Ga. tests and is Approved by the Ga. Ex- 
periment Station. High yields in Md. tests 7 
years, much higher than U. S. 262A, U. S. 357A. 
In 1951 it made 181 bu. per acre, highest in 
100 Bu. Corn Contests east of the mountains, 
for Bob Lane, Goochland Co., Va., who says: 
“V/-50 had extra green, broad foliage. It stood 
up better than 4 other hybrids beside it. Ears 
much heavier, rich color, more food value.” 
Many have tried other hybrids to break these 
records, but given up and returned to V-50. 
V-50 made 212.6 bu. per acre for Tom Starke, 
in Va., the 100 Bu. Corn Club all-time record.
