“In response to your inquiry regarding your 
Coker 100 cottons planted by us this year we wish 
to say that our harvest is not entirely completed 
but on the 1010 acres of these cottons we have this 
year we will harvest approximately a bale and a 
half of lint cotton to the acre. Our yield with this 
cotton has been phenomenal and we are well pleased 
with same. Am glad to be able to give you an order

“Rowan County has the best cotton crop we have 
seen. Approximately 75% of the crop grown this 
year was Coker 100. This cotton has good staple 
and opens early. Eleven Demonstration farmers have 
already reported they grew 83,770 pounds of lint on 
108.1 acres or an average of 775 pounds per acre.”

year. It yielded over a bale per acre and I received

at that time, we had picked 9 bales off 14^/^ acres 
. . . it is full 1%" staple and is a wonderful cotton.”

early maturity for long staple. Final yield was 
665 pounds net lint per acre.
