900 POUNDS OFF OF */ 2 ACRE 
W. W. Bagley & Sons, 
Martindale, Texas. 
Dear Sirs: 
I like your BAGLEY BETTER COTTON fine. Has large 
bolls and picks just fine. 
Although I had bad luck with the seed, on account of 
the overflows that washed up all of my cotton except Vfe 
acre, I picked better than 900 pounds off of this Vz acre, 
and it looked like every seed I planted came up, so I am 
really pleased with your BAGLEY BETTER COTTON. 
I don’t intend to plant anything another year but BAG- 
LEY SEED. 
Respectfully yours,

BAGLEY COTTON QUICK MATURING. PLANTS 
WHOLE FIELD IN BAGLEY SEED 
W. W. Bagiev & Sons, 
Martindale, Texas. 
Gentlemen: 
This is the first year 
that I ever planted BAG- 
LEY SEED. I believe it 
beats any other kind of 
seed I have ever tried 
heretofore. I had about 
12 acres of it this year 
and I presume I made 4 
bales on 12 acres. The 
outlook at one time, 
promised a bale to the 
acre at least, but due to 
all the rains and insects 
the crops around here 
were very short all over. 
I notice that the BAG- 
LEY COTTON is quick 
maturing, large uniform 
bolls mostly 5 locks, 
storm resisting and at 
the same time easy to 
pick. The turnout at the 
gin is very good as well 
as in the field. 
The last two bales that 
I held over for planting seed, one weighed 595 pounds from 
1435 pounds of seed cotton and the other 600 pounds from 
1485 pounds of seed cotton, which shows the turnout is 
easily 40% or better. 
I am well pleased with the seed and aim to plant my 
whole field with nothing but BAGLEY SEED this coming 
year. 
Yours very truly,

Planted Bagley Seed for 3 Years. Due to Facts I Will Plant Nothing But Bag- 
ley. It Gives More per Acre Than Any Seed I have Yet Planted 
Dear Sirs: 
Just to say a few words about your BAGLEY BETTER PEDIGREED 
SEED. 
We planted 18 acres with 6 bushels, 2 sacks, and got a good stand. We 
picked seven bales of the first picking and will get 4 or 5 more. It turned 
out between 39 and 40% lint. I am enclosing two pictures that I have 
taken of your BAGLEY BETTER COTTON. 
Wishing you greater success in the cotton breeding field.

THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN 
BAGLEY’S LIGHT FOLIAGE PERMITS SUN TO 
GET INSIDE AND RUN THE FLEAS 
W. W. Bagley, 
Martindale, Texas 
Dear Sir: 
Enclosed you will find my order for 3 bushels of seed. 
We have made a complete failure this year due to the 
insects and worms. 
I planted two sacks of your seed last spring on 12 
acres; I have picked two bales, I have one yet to pick off 
of 12 acres Have only gathered two bales off 40 acres 
of a different cotton. 
The main reason I see that Bagley is the best is due 
to fast maturing and very small leaves, or light foliage, 
permitting the sun to get inside and run the fleas. 
I remain,

BAGLEY COTTON HAS GOOD LINT AND 
IS VERY EASY TO PICK 
W. W. Bagley & Sons, Walburg, Texas, Dec. 21, 1935 
Martindale, Texas. 
Dear Sirs: 
Personally I have this to say in regard to your seed. I planted (11) eleven acres 
with your Pedigreed Cotton Seed and I harvested (8) bales. 
I am submitting some facts about my turnouts. 
Out of the 8 bales, my average turnout was about 40%. I had 2 bales that turned 
out 42% lint, with which I am well pleased. 
I have been planting Bagley Seed for 3 years and due to facts I know that I will 
plant nothing but Bagley because it gives more per acre than any other seed I have 
yet planted. 
I have been farming for 26 years and have tried different kinds of seed for many 
years and I believe your seed is the best in this country. 
Enclosed you will find a picture of myself and part of my this year’s crop, all Bag- 
ley Cotton. Yours very truly,

I F just*want to let you know that I do not intend to or¬

of my own seed from last year’s BAGLEY COTTON. But 
I think I shall order some seed from you again in the fu¬

much as BAGLEY.
