Grown at the top of the Cotton Belt. Matures two weeks earlier, heating' the holl weevil. 
South Carolina Experiment Station. “Five men Avho planted good treated seed of early 
varieties made over a bale per acre on their entire crop. Seed treatment allows earlier plant¬ 
ing, hastens maturity, produces many more plants and yielded 430 pounds more per acre 
than untreated seed, or 28% increase.” 
North Caro'’ina Experiment Station: “Treating cotton seed increased returns $21.56 per 
acre. Two and one-half times as many plants came up as untreated seed. Treating prevents 
seed rotting and seedling diseases in cold, damp weather, makes stronger plants, evenly 
spaced, and avoids planting over. It allows planting ten days earlier, getting ahead of boll 
weevil. It prevents boll rot, blight and many other diseases.” 
Virginia Experiment Station: “Treated cotton was ready to pick ten days before untreated 
seed planted at the same time. No untreated seed should be planted in Virginia.” 
pEANT 45 pounds of treated seed per acre in 3-foot rows when the ground gets warm.

1 1_A The most popular cotton in America. 1 1/8- 
inch staple; 41 to 43% lint; semi-wilt re¬ 
sistant. We are exclusive agents for Foundation 
Stock Seed grown on the Delta and Pine Land 
Farm where this cotton has averaged 660 pounds 
of lint per acre, with 1 3/32 to 1 5/32 inch staple on 
10,000 acres for three years. It is selected from a 
cross between Foster and Express. Because of its 
extreme earliness it is planted almost exclusively 
in the northern section of the Cotton Belt in Ten¬ 
nessee, Kentucky and Missouri. Its medium size 
open weed and earliness helps it escape boll wee¬ 
vil damage. It is easily picked, yet storm resist¬ 
ant. In the 1937 South Carolina test it yielded 728 
pounds of lint per acre, considerably higher than 
any other variety. It made the highest yield and 
money value in North Carolina, Georgia, Missis¬ 
sippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas State Ex¬ 
periment Station tests. Seed is delinted.

Highest yielding, absolutely 
wilt-resistant cotton in the N. C. tests. It yielded 2,843 pounds of seed cotton 
per acre—the highest yield ever made at the Florence, S. C., Experiment Sta¬ 
tion, making the highest average yield of forty varieties for four years. It 
made the highest yield of seed cotton of thirty varieties in five tests in Alabama 
with the longest staple. Best staple (1% inch) and smallest number bolls per 
pound (63) in the Virginia test. Large bolls; five locks; easily picked.

Farm Relief and outyields it on medium or good land. One 
of the heaviest yielding cottons on non-wilt land. Has 
made high yields in ten state experiment station tests, 
probably due to escaping boll weevil damage by its ex¬ 
treme earliness: semi-dwarf with small leaves; thin, dark 
green foliage; symmetrical spreading, long, well-boiled 
branches; 70 to 75 bolls per pound. Bolls slightly pointed, 
open wide; fluffs beautifully, yet storm-resistant. Pro¬

4 in 1 Will-Resistant * 3/32-nich staple;. 36% lint; one 
of the heavy yielding cottons on 
wilt land, usually making a hale per acre. A cross selected 
after twelve years’ breeding, combining the earliness and 
thin foliage of Foster with the high yield, vigor and wilt 
resistance of Clevewilt. Good for either wilt or non-wilt 
land. Semi-dwarf; medium thin foliage; 68 to 72 bolls per 
pound; easy to pick.
