STONEVILLE NO. 5 
Today the greatest of all poor land Cottons. 
Ranks at the top in practically all Experiment 
Station tests conducted in Arkansas, Mississippi, 
Georgia, Louisiana and other states. Proved its 
merit even on light, wilt-infested soils. It is early, 
productive, has a high lint turnout, stormproof, 
picks easy and produces a good strong staple on 
the poorest hill lands. Yields well in all parts of 
the Cotton Belt. It is the best strain of Stone- 
ville Cotton yet developed, and probably has the 
widest adaptation of any Cotton in existence to¬ 
day. You make no mistake when you plant this 
grand Stoneville variety. Reuter -offers only 
originator’s seed—Ceresan-treated and delinted.

CERESAN-TREATED 
and Delinted 
Reuter offers you only pedigreed 
[Cotton seed produced by the origina¬ 
tors. This gives you an opportunity 
each year to produce your own plant¬ 
ing stock. Cotton seed “runs out” 
quickly, so Reuter urges you to plant 
the breeders’ latest and most im¬ 
proved strains each year for a small 
part of your acreage. Seed from 
this planting may be used for your 
general crop the following year 
with good results. 
The stocks we offer have been 
treated with Ceresan to produce 
better stands of more vigorous 
plants. Average germination over 
90%. 
PLANT LESS ACRES! 
With some form of acreage control or Cotton production 
control in prospect for the next few years, it becomes 
more and more important to produce the most Cotton on 
the least acreage. Higher yields are possible for you if 
you plant genuine originator’s foundation seed. There 
will be more money in your pocket if you sell your old 
seed to the gin and plant this spring one of the pure-bred, 
high-yielding strains described and offered on this page. 
STONEVILLE 2-B 
A new Cotton of which any breeder might be 
proud. Excellent, large fluffy bolls, open well. Has 
high percentage of five lock bolls. Since its intro¬ 
duction in 1936, we believe Stoneville 2-B has led in 
money value per acre in more official tests than any 
other Cotton or strain in existence today. In 60 
tests during the past three years in Arkansas, Loui¬ 
siana, Mississippi, Georgia and Missouri, it has av¬ 
eraged $3.84 more per acre in money value than any 
other variety that was included in all of the tests.
