STONEVILLE 2-B MAKES REMARKABLE RECORD 
Below is a condensed record of the performance of Stoneville 2-B where it has appeared in the reports of the official 
variety tests in the Middle Cotton States, during the past five years. These records are taken from all of the tests 
and not from a selected few where the 2-B was outstanding. 
Arkansas: 
Highest average of all varieties in money value per acre each year for four years. 
We quote from a summarized report issued by the Agronomy Department of the University of Arkansas— 
“Of the sixteen varieties included in the outlying tests, Stoneville 2-B has the widest adaptation. It performs 
well under most favorable soil and climatic conditions and also does reasonably well under the most rigorous 
conditions.” 
Louisiana: 
Highest average in money value per acre of all varieties in the tests over a period of four years, 1936 to 1939. 
We quote from report of the cotton variety tests in the state in 1939, issued by the Agronomy Department of 
the University of Louisiana—“Stoneville 2-B is wide in its adaptation, doing well on most lands of the state 
that are not badly infected with Fusarium cotton wilt.” 
Mississippi: 
Highest average in money value per acre of all varieties in the tests each year for four years and second to a 
very long staple variety the fifth year. 
Missouri:

! Alabama:

above ysth inch in staple. 
Georgia: 
We quote from Bulletin no. 204, issued by the Georgia Experiment Station, in 1939, “ Stoneville 2-B has the 
highest average yield and highest money value of any variety grown for the four year period (1936-1939) both 
in the North Georgia tests and in the South Georgia tests. This is the only variety ever in the station tests 
that has done well in both North and South Georgia. In the North Georgia tests it has been the leading variety 
all four seasons.” 
Tennessee: 
Tennessee issues no official records of variety tests but we are officially advised—“The Stoneville 2-B va¬ 
riety of cotton has ranked among the first three cottons in money value at all of our Stations and we recom¬ 
mend it as a good variety to plant in Tennessee.”

Your reduced acreage planted to cotton should be made to produce the highest possible money return per acre. To 
insure best results, buy your 2-B planting seed direct from the originators and breeders of this wonderful cotton.
