DIRECTIONS FOR PLANTING AND CUL- 

 TIVATING COTTON. 



For the benefit of every one directly inter- 

 ested in the growing of this most valuable 

 staple of commerce, we submit the following 

 directions in brief and concise form : 



Thoroughly break and prepare your land 

 early, having the rows %% to 4 feet wide, and 

 hills 12 to 14 inches apart in di-'ll. When 

 the cotton comes up plow it deep while it s 

 small in order to let the heat of the sun 

 strike through the beds. As it gets larger 

 shallow down, and towards the last plough 

 very shallow with wide sweeps. Always 

 keep the top crust of the ground broken in 

 dry weather, as it prevents it from losing its 

 forms, but plough very shallow. Never stop 

 ploughing for wet weather until the ground 

 turns in slices, then quit immediately until it 

 dries off. Never lay-by until the middle of 

 August. The most successful time we have 

 ever had in planting for a big yield was on 

 the 5th and 6th days of April : in fact, the 

 first week in April is the best time for plant- 

 ing cotton for good results. One bushel of 

 cotton seed required to plant an acre of land.

 PETERKIN IMPROVED COTTON. — We 

 recommend the Peterkin Cotton as one that 

 will not disappoint the grower. It is a vigor- 

 ous grower, a good producer, withstands dry 

 weather better than the common seed. Pro- 

 lific, open growing or branching, excellent 

 large bolls, small seed, and yields fully forty 

 per cent of net lint cotton. 



RUSSELL'S BIG BOLL PROLIFIC COT- 

 TON. — This Cotton was among the first in 

 point of yield out of twenty-five varieties test- 

 ed in 1900, making 2,091 pounds seed cotton 

 to the acre. The stalks grow from 4% to 1 

 feet high, producing large, long limbs at the 

 bottom and shorter ones up the stalk. From 

 36 to 40 bolls weigh one pound, and 40 to 100 

 bolls grow on each stalk.
