Due to the outstanding merit and the distinct bo anical character 
possessed by this cotton, various Experiment Stations and the Cotton 
Variety Registration Committee appointed by the Association of Southern 
Agricultural Workers has recommended that this cotton deserves and 
should have a new name, in accordance with the Official Code of No¬ 
menclature of the American Society of Agronomy. Therefore we have

Ambassador is a selection from Stoneville No. 4, has a larger boll 
and is more prolific. It is an outstanding big boll cotton for very fertile soil. 
Records at Sikeston, Missouri, on the north edge of the Cotton Belt, shovr 
it highest in relative earliness of all strains in the tests. Its ex'reme earli¬ 
ness, combined with its big boll and dv/arfness, make it a prime cotton 
for any section where these characteristics are essential. 
It has made some excellent records in irrigated sections, and enor¬ 
mous yields may be expected from it on medium fertile or thin uplands, 
where fertilizers are used liberally, the rovrs narrowed, with reasonably 
thick spacing in the drill.
