GEORGIA 
This State reports the money value of seed and 
lint i>er acre. 
1 Stoneville 2-B was highest in average of 
1«70D money values in tests at seven locations in 
the State. 
North Georgia 
At Experiment, it was third in a test of 15 varie¬ 
ties, at Bishop it was first in a test of 21 varieties, 
at Cedartown it was second in a test of 20 varieties, 
being just eighty-one cents below Stoneville 5-A in 
the Cedartown test, but it had the highest money 
value i>er acre average for the three tests. 
South Georgia 
At Carnegie, Hawkinsville, Waynesboro and Lyons, 
ill the wilt infested area of South Georgia, 2-B was 
highest ill the average of the money values in the 
four tests. It was first at Hawkinsville, second at 
Lyons, fourth at Waynesboro and seventh at Carne¬ 
gie in tests of a list of 22 varieties, most of which 
were wilt resistant strains. Stoneville 5-A was high¬ 
est at Waynesboro. 
Its average staple length for the seven tests was 
32.85/32 and lint percentage 36.38%. 
1007 2-B was again the highest in average of 
X«70l money values in tests at seven locations in 
the State- 
North Georgia 
It was second at Experiment, first at Cedartown, 
and first at Watkinsville, in tests of sixteen varie¬ 
ties, with the highest average in money value per 
acre for the three locations. 
South Georgia 
In the wilt area of South Georgia, it was just 
twenty-five cents below the first variety in the av¬ 
erage of money values at four locations, in tests of 
sixteen varieties, twelve of which ore highly ^'ated 
as wilt resistant strains. 
It was fifth at Cuthbert, Second at Cordele, sec¬ 
ond at Iteidsville and first for the second year in 
succession at Hawkinsville. It had the highest aver¬ 
age staple length at the four locations, 32.4/32 inch. 
Its average staple length for seven tests was 
32-2/32 and lint i>ercentage 36.72%. 
We quote from Press Bulletin No. 456, released 
.Tan. 19, 1938, by the Georgia Experimental Station, 
Exi>eriment, Georgia. 
“Stoneville 2-B had the highest money value of 
any variety in the North Georgia tests and only miss¬ 
ed being first in South Georgia by a few cents. In 
1936, it was also the leading variety in both sections. 
It appears to have enough wilt resistance for North 
Georgia conditions. It is similar to Stoneville 2-A 
but yields better and has a slightly better staple, 
larger boll and higher lint i)ercent.” 
THE MOST IMPORTANT CHARACTERISTIC OF 
ANY COTTON IS ITS MONEY RETURN PER 
ACRE.
