The pure pedigreed strains offered on this page are scientifically bred for earliness, length of staple, and yield. You can grow 
more Cotton per acre with these splendid types than you are now growing with shorter varieties. Your Experiment Station records 
prove this. They are easier to pick, more wilt-resistant, and are as early as your short varieties. 
DELFOS 531 (Delfos 6102-531) 
The greatest producer and most profitable of all staple Cottons. 
Yields good during both wet and dry seasons. The most pro¬ 
ductive, extra-long-staple strain developed from 6102. Selected 
for staple-length, running 1 ^ to 1^ inches, and also bred for its 
ability to produce. The vigorous plants are open and uniform, 
with very light foliage. To say that it is the greatest Delfos is 
sufficient. 
Descriptive Characteristics 
Plants: Medium, vigorous, and Boll-size: 75 to 80 per pound. 
spreading. Lint-percentage: 32 to 34 per cent. 
Maturity: Early. Staple-length: 1 ^ to 1 ^ inches. 
Picking Qualities: Good. Foliage: Very light. 
Storm-resistance: Fair to good. 
Not prepaid: 30 lbs. (bus.) $2.00; 100 lbs. (3f3 bus.) $6.00; 
20 bags (ton) or over, at $5.50 per bag 
MISSDEL No. 3 (Delfos 910-3234) 
The best long-staple Cotton ever introduced. Its extreme 
earliness makes it one of the safest Cottons. It has been bred to 
give the Mississippi Valley an extra-early, high-producing, big- 
boll Cotton which will produce lVt-inch staple when soil-fer¬ 
tility and growing conditions are favorable. Superior to most of 
the big-boiled short Cottons in picking qualities. It is safer under 
boll weevil and adverse weather conditions than most of the 
Delfos strains. 
Descriptive Characteristics 
Plants: Semi-dwarf. Boll-size: 60 to 65 per pound. 
Maturity: Earliest known. Lint-percentage: 32 to 34 per cent. 
Picking Qualities: Very good. Staple-length: 1 ^ to 1 l /i inch full. 
Storm-resistance: Best known. Foliage: Light. 
Not prepaid: 30 lbs. (bus.) $2.00; 100 lbs. (3\i bus.) $6.00; 
20 bags (ton) or over, at $5.50 per bag

The most widely known upland Cotton. An outstanding big- 
boll variety, early, productive, extremely wilt- and disease-resistant, 
ginning as high as 41 per cent lint—uniform, strong, smooth, and 
of extremely high spinning value, and always in demand. Extra 
early, unusually heavy yielder, and good picker. The greatest 
consistent money-maker. 
Descriptive Characteristics 
Plants: Vigorous and spreading. Boll-size: 65 to 75 per pound.

STONEVILLE No. 5 
Ranks at the top in practically all Experiment Station tests 
conducted in Arkansas, Mississippi, Georgia, Louisiana, and 
other states. Its large, round bolls, with nearly all having 
five-locks, make it an excellent picking Cotton. It is the 
earliest big-boll Cotton and the most dependable profit-

CROTALARIA 
885 A remarkable new and valuable legume which returns a tre¬ 
mendous tonnage of green material to the soil. It reduces the 
fertilizer expenditures by supplying a large amount of nitrogen to 
the soil, and it adds humus not contained in commercial soil-builders. 
Stock will not eat it. Makes a profuse growth, and if allowed to 
stand until the seed matures in the early fall, will reseed itself the 
next year. Thrives on any soil. 
Crotalaria spectabilis is used as a summer cover-crop and soil- 
builder in groves, orchards, etc. Broadcast 10 to 15 lbs. per acre, or 
drill half the quantity on well-prepared land any time from early 
April until the end of June. Pkt. 10c; lb. 40c; 2 lbs. 70c; 5 lbs. 
$1.50. For larger quantities, see price-list in back of catalog.
