4 Growing Sea Island Cotton Under Florida Conditions 



remarks on the cotton stainer as this pest must be fought 

 in the southern edge of the Florida Sea Island Belt if prof- 

 itable crops are to be harvested. 



The Sea Island market is expanding rapidly and attempts 

 to grow this choice cotton will be made on a large scale in the 

 Mississippi Delta during 1939. 



All data and recommendations in this bulletin apply equally 

 well to the production of short staple or upland cotton.
