All " Certifie d" seed is NOJ auke
DON’T LET ANYBODY tell you all Certified
seed is the same. There IS a difference! A. H.
Hoffman Seeds, Inc. is not only the largest pro
ducer of “Certified” winter grains in Pennsyl
vania, but the superior quality of Hoffman “Certi
fied” seeds exceed the state certification standards
by a wide margin,
FOR EXAMPLE:
- A. H. Hoffman’s Certified
Penna. Certification REDCOAT WHEAT
Requirements for Wheat (3 year average)
99.00% (minimum) PURITY 99.75%
1.00% (max.) INERT MATTER 0.25%
90.00% (min.) GERMINATION 94.7%
58 lbs. (minimum) WT. PER BU. 61.5 lbs.
The certification tag is not enough. Hoffman tags
on the seed you sow can mean bigger crop profits
for you. That fact has been demonstrated over 60
years.

Dwarf Mosaic
Moving East;
Now In Penna.
Miaizc dwarf mosaic, a new
virus disease of iorn that
spread over virtually all of
Ohio in three years, Was been
found in Pennsylvania.
Discovery of the disease, in
two fields near Dock Haven,
was reported recently by the
Pennsylvania Department of
Agriculture and by the Col
lege of Agriculture of The
Pennsylvania State University.
State Agriculture Secretary
Leiand H. Bull said “the seri
ousness of this discovery and
its potential threat to corn
production in Pennsylvania
dare not be overlooked.
"The disease was first de
tected in southern Ohio in
1962 and by 1964 hiad spread
into all but nine of the state’s
88 counties. Dast year Ohio’s
loss was estimated at five mil
lion bushels of corn worth
$5 85 m’llluon.”
The initial find in Pa. was
made August 6 by Dr. Clifford
C Wernham, plant piatholOgust
of Penn State, and a gradu
ate assistant, David R. Mac-
Kenzie
On August 21, Dr. Wern
h'am and MaoKenme found af
fected plants in two late
planted fields of sweet corn
about a mile from the first
site
Juice from th'e stalks was
transftniitted to corn in green
houses at Penn State and
these plants developed posi
tive symptoms of the disease,

plants, and subsequent stunt
ed growth. Later, leaves may
appear uniformly yellow, or
develop red or reddish purple
spots in late August or Sep
tember.
Plants affected early in the
season produce ears with lit
tle or no grain.
Henry F. Nixon, director of
the Agriculture Department's
Bureau of Plant Industry, said
at present the only method
of controlling maize dwarf
mosaic is to plant one of the
very few known res'istant var
ieties of corn. He added that
“progress is being made” in
rese'aroh to develop hybrids
resistant to this disease and
