“TESTED SEEDS” 


The term “tested seeds’ as used in this catalog, and in all of our 
advertising means that every bag or package of seeds purchased at 
Wyatt-Quarles is supplied from a lot that has been carefully tested by 
the North Carolina Seed Testing Laboratory and the seeds are known 
to grow. Every lot of seeds reaching our warehouse is sampled and 
_tested before the seeds are moved into our store for packaging or for 
sale in bulk. This accounts for the fact that “Wyatt-Quarles Tested 
ope are more and more in demand in North Carolina and in the 
' South. 

Plant Wyatt-Quarles Tested Seeds and be sure of success.

(2 level tablespoons per 100 ft. of row). Drill 
seed 14 inch deep, 12 inch apart, in rows 2 to 3 
feet apart. When plants are 2 inches high thin 
to 11% to 2 inches apart. Sidedress with 15 lbs.

Roasting Ear and Sugar Com 


One pound will plant about 200 hills; 10 pounds 
will plant an acre 


CULTURE: Sweet corn, a warm season annual, is increasing rapidly in importance in the 
South. Improved methods of refrigeration and handling which reduce the rate of loss of sugar, 


have made it possible to produce sweet corn commercially. 
After harvest, sweet corn should be immediately placed in temperature conditions 


gardens. 


It is a standard crop in home 


of 35-40 degrees F to prevent the loss of sugar and a lowering of quality. It can be grown on a 
great variety of soils. A well drained sandy loam with adequate humus supply and moisture 
is desirable. Fertilize with 500 Ibs. of 8-8-8 per acre (2 qts. per 100 ft. of row) prior to planting 
the seed. Sweet corn responds to nitrogen sidedressing. Apply about 80 lbs. of nitrogen in split 
applications, 40 lbs. (112 cups of Nitrate of Soda, or equivalent, per 100 ft. of row) when plants 
are about knee high and 40 lbs. when tassels begin to show. Plant seed in hills one foot apart, 
or drill seed and thin. One or two plants per foot is recommended. Rows should be spaced 
3 feet apart. Two ounces of seed to plant 100 ft. of row; 10 lbs. seed per acre.

EGGPLANT 


CULTURE: A warm season crop transplanted 
to the field or garden well after danger of frost. 
Cultural requirements are similar to the tomato 
except that it requires a longer growing season 
and is more seriously checked by cool weather. 
Well drained sandy loam soils, high in organic 
matter, with a pH between 5.5 and 6.5 are de- 
sirable. Sow seed in protected beds about 8 to 
10 weeks prior to date of field transplanting. 
Fertilize with 800 to 1,200 Ibs. of 8-8-8 (3-5 qts. 
per 100 ft. of row) prior to transplanting. Apply 
30 lbs. of nitrogen in three applications, of 10 
pounds each (45 cup of Nitrate of Soda, or 
equivalent) spaced at about 2 weeks apart. 
Space plants 18 inches to 2 feet apart in rows 
315 to 4 feet apart. Cultivate shallow, sufficiently 
to control weeds.

feet of row. Four ounces to produce plants for

spring for the spring crop, and in August and 
September for the fall crop. 

A fertile, well drained sandy loam soil 
with a pH of 6.0 is ideal. Fertilize with 1,000

CULTURE: 1 ounce is sufficient for 100 feet of drill; 2 pounds will sow an acre. Sow 
February to October, 144 of an inch deep, broadcast, or in drills 18 inches apart, thin-

March, the salad may be had at its best until summer.

PEPPERS 


CULTURE: Peppers, like tomatoes, are a warm season crop and cannot be planted in the open 
until danger of frost is past. Seed should be planted in a glass covered plant bed 8-10 weeks 


before field setting is desired (usually March). 


A warm, deep, fairly moist and loose soil with 


a pH of 5.5-6.5 is desired. Fertilize with 700-800 pounds of 8-8-8 per acre (3 qts. per 100 ft. 


of row). 


Set in rows 315 feet apart and space plants 18 inches apart. Sidedress 3-4 weeks after 


field setting with 10-15 pounds of nitrogen per acre (42 cup of Nitrate of Soda, or its equivalent, 


per 100 feet of row) and at best twice thereafter at about two week intervals. 


Six ounces of 


seed will produce plants for one acre; 1 ounce will produce about 1,500 plants.

Ten Steps in Lawn Building 


1—Break 6 to 12 inches deep with fork or subsoil plow to prevent 
burying top soil—then level or grade as needed. z 

2—Apply the equivalent of 3 heavy green cover crops; or 2 inches 
weed free manure (both if available) or 3 bales peat and 200 
pounds dehydrated manure per 1,000 sq. ft. 

3—Spread 50 pounds ground agricultural limestone and 50 pounds 
fertilizer per 1,000 sq. ft. é 

4—Thoroughly mix lime and fertilizers into top 6 inches of soil, then 
smooth surface. : 

5—Seed 5 pounds per 1,000 sq. ft. Wyatt-Quarles adapted Lawn Mix- 
ture between Sept. 1 and early Spring; Sunny South for sun; Caro- 
lina for partial sun and shade; Shady Nook for shade, in the 
Piedmont. Use Wyatt-Quarles Coastlawn in the Coastal plain. 
Divide seeds into 2 or 3 equal parts, sowing entire area with each 


part. 

6—Soak thoroughly but slowly to avoid moving seeds. Keep moist 
until grass is up. 

7—Use mower set to cut at 215 to 3 inches until sod is established. 
Shade tolerant grasses are seriously injured, often destroyed, by 
closé mowing during warm seasons. 

8—Soak thoroughly during dry periods. 

9—Feed regularly, at 8 week intervals, year ’round, with 20 to 40 
pounds per 1.000 sq. ft., high grade fertilizer adding 50 to 100 
pounds per 1,000 sq. ft. of dehydrated manure where stand is thin. 
Always sprinkle after feeding. Where soil tends to pack, double 
application rate of manure and aerate with spike disk or fork. 

10—Apply additional seeds as needed just before feeding.

For new lawns a 6 cu. ft. bale should be 
thoroughly pulverized and mixed in each 
100 to 260 sq. ft. of lawn area. Nothing is 
so beneficial to establish lawns as a bale of 
peat mixed with 100 pounds of Sheep Ma- 
nure applied to each 2,000 sq. ft. 3 or 4 times 
each summer. Peat should also be used 
liberally in gardens, flower beds and borders 
and as a mulch for shrubbery, because of its 
capacity to hold moisture. 


6 cu. {t. bale compressed (approx. 85 Ibs.) 
37” x 1444” x 181%”. $5.50 f.0.b., Raleigh. 


4 cu. ft. bale compressed (approx. 50 Ibs.)

PANO-DRENCH 


PROTECT SEEDLINGS FROM DAMPING- 
OFF! 


Discover how many seeds there 
really are in a packet then 
make sure all the seedlings reach 
transplanting age—by using Pano- 
drench. Pano-drench prevents and 
controls damping-off, the disease 
that permits plants to grow to two- 
inch height, then kills them over- 
night. One teaspoon, diluted in 6 
quarts of water treats three large 
flats. Applied like plant food, 
Pano-drench protection lasts for 
weeks. Apply either before or 
after planting. Use also as root 
dip when transplanting.

tions, it out-yielded all other hybrids listed at 
all locations by 26 percent. The head is suffi- 
ciently loose to permit aeration and the pene- 
tration of dusts or sprays when insect control 
is necessary. The seeds are reddish-brown and 
hard, which contribute to insect, bird and 
weather resistance. Georgia 615 has good resist- 
ance to anthracnose, which occurs in three 
phases, a leaf-spot, a stalk-rot and a head blight

standing in yield, palatability, food content, 
and performance. Haygrazer is far superior 
to Sudan in growth rate and feeding value. 
In the South, four cuttings of Haygrazer per 
season, with yields 15 to 20 tons an acre per 
cutting, are commonly reported. Haygrazer 
usually -grows at a rate of more than two 
inches per day. If not cut or grazed, it

millet. Also recovers faster after grazing than 
common pearl millet. In tests to date in North 
Carolina, under grazing, it has been more pro- 
ductive than either Starr or common pearl 
millet. Starr millet, however, is more leafy 
than Gahi and is easier to manage under 
grazing. Hence, both Gahi and Starr are con- 
sidered excellent varieties for North Carolina.
