COKER 200 Strain 
A NEW AND BETTER COKER 100 COTTON 
OF THE COKER 100 STRAIN 2 TYPE. 
Coker 200 Strain 1 is a striking new Coker 100 
Strain 2 selection; even more uniform in type with 
thinner foliage and earlier maturity than Strain 2. 
One is struck with the semi-dwarf, red stemmed, 
determinate plants; the deeply lobed, small leaves, 
the profuse fruitage and the lightly colored bronze 
tipped squares. A thoroughbred cotton with a record 
in keeping with its pedigree. 
HAS NO EQUAL FOR FERTILE SOILS 
OR CLOSE SPACING 
Coker 100 Strain 2, the parent of Coker 200 
Strain 1, led the 1937 Pee Dee Experiment Station 
test in pounds of seed cotton and ranked second in 
the 1938 test, being led only by our Coker 100 
Strain 3. It has made a similar record in our tests. 
Coker 200 Strain 1 led its parent in our 1938 Coker 
100 Strain test and ranked slightly ahead in the 
main test. Due to the small stalk, thin foliage, small, 
deeply lobed leaves and quick fruitage, Coker 200 
Strain 1 has no equal for planting on fertile soils or 
for close spacing on average to good soils. A still 
better Coker 100-2. 
LEADS VIRGINIA TEST 
Coker 200 Strain 1 led the test conducted by 
Virginia Experiment Station at Holland, Va., in 
which 19 popular varieties were included. Coker 200 
came first with a yield of 2,175 pounds of seed cotton 
per acre. Coker 100 Strain 2 came second with a yield 
of 1,850 pounds. In the 1939 Clemson College variety 
test, Coker 200 Strain 1 came second in money value 
per acre and pounds of lint and made a turn¬ 
out of 39.7% lint. It was led only by one of our 
breeding blocks of Coker 100 which may be a new 
strain to be offered our customers in the future.

*Coker 200 is the name we have given our new 
line of Coker 100 cottons which come from the small 
weed, small leaf, extra early Coker 100 Strain 2 
blood line. This cotton differs from the Coker 100 
Strains 1 and 3 and since we are offering this cotton 
in addition to our new Coker 100 Strain 3, we have 
decided on this change in name in order to avoid 
confusing our customers.
