Variant Forms of Meade Cotton Plants. 
A typical open plant is shown at the left, and an undesirable semicluster plant at the right. The 
desirable type of Meade plant is of open growth with rather Ions jointed fruiting branches 
having 15 to 20 bolls. Many of the undesirable plants are short jointed or "semicluster," often 
bearing good crops, but usually producing short fiber and fuzzy or "tight" seeds.
