WASHINGTON

Due to the outstanding- merit and the distinct botanical character 
possessed by this cotton, various Experiment Stations and the Cotton Va¬ 
riety Registration Committee appointed by the Association of Southern 
Agricultural Workers has re¬ 
commended that this cotton de¬ 
serves and should have a new

Agronomy. Therefore we have 
had this cotton registered under 
the name of WASHINGTON.

Washington (Delfos 719) is a BIG BOLL DELFOS 6102 ST RIAN 
THAT WILL PRODUCE. In plant type, it is similar to Delfos 6102, has a 
slightly larger leaf, is early maturing, and very productive for a big boll 
cotton. In fact, it is the only really BIG BOLL Delfos strain we have tested 
that will produce as much cotton as the smaller boll strains. The bolls 
are large, round in shape, and open well, five locks predominating. It is 
just the type of boll that is necessary for a good picking cotton. 
For many years we have had calls for a BIG BOLL DELFOS cotton 
and we now have it in Washington (Delfos 719). And it is “SOME” cotton. 
We believe the best “ALL ROUND” medium staple cotton we have ever 
seen.
