Gentlemen: 
I am glad to give you a report 
on test made last season with 
BAGLEY and two other varieties 
of cotton. I had three blocks of 
five acres each and planted 3 bu. 
of BAGLEY REGISTERED COT¬ 
TONSEED on one five-acre block 
and 3 bu. each on the other two 
blocks of the best seed from the 
breeders of two other leading va-. 
rieties of cotton. My BAGLEY 
COTTON made 2994 lbs. lint cot¬ 
ton from 7050 lbs. seed cotton on 
the five acres, which is better than 
a bale per acre. My other cotton 
on each of the five-acre blocks 
made a few pounds more than 1700 
lbs. of lint cotton. The BAGLEY 
made nearly twice the yield a.s my 
Other cotton and I figure my BAG- 
LEY COTTON made me $35.00 
more per bu. (or $105.00 more on 
the 3-bu. sack) than the other 
varieties. 
Yours very truly.

Gentlemen: 
Last year was my first year to 
grow BAGLEY COTTON and I 
found it to be the best cotton I 
had ever grown. It was a very dry 
season, but I made an average of 
over a bale per acre anyway. I 
received 437'o turn-out at the gin 
and my ginner tried to buy all my 
seed to plant on his farm. My cot¬ 
ton brought the top price on the 
market. I am planting all BAG- 
LEY this year as it stands the 
drought better than any cotton and 
is the easiest to pick and makes 
more money per acre.

Gentlemen: 
Six years ago in trying to find 
the best cotton for all types of soil, 
I planted BAGLEY COTTONSEED 
and seed of two other varieties and 
since that time I have had tests 
of BAGLEY with other varieties 
and have found to my full satis¬ 
faction that B.AGLEY COTTON 
makes the greatest yield per acre, 
has stood the worst droughts and 
is storm proof. I am getting the 
best turn-out at the gin, 1100 lbs. 
seed cotton making me around 600- 
lb. bales, and the BAGLEY COT¬ 
TON makes a fine sample to sell 
by and I am getting the top price 
for my cotton. BAGLEY is now 
the only cotton grown on my farm, 
and I can recommend it for all 
types of soil and in my opinion no 
farmer can make a mistake in 
planting BAGLEY COTTONSEED.
