FACTS THAT “GO A LONG WAY” IN PROVING SUPERIOR 
STRAINS OF SEED 
TRIAL LANDS AND EQUIPMENT 
Plant-to-row Plots, Trial Grounds in Wilt Soils, Increase Farms, ‘Ten and Sixteen 
Saw Gins, Private System Gins, Seed Graders, Warehouses for Sacked Seed and two 
Large Germinators. 
ONLY THE BEST FOR PLANTING 
The choicest field multiplications are kept for seed. ‘The gins are adjusted so that 
any knot-locks in the cotton will drop. The seed go directly from the gins through the 
grading machines and the number 1’s are then and there, bagged. ‘They are then spaced 
for seasoning out and afterwards stacked 80 bags to a stack, all ears out, so that long 
trial sample can be drawn from each bag, for germination test. 
FOR OUR WORK IN SMALL GRAIN 
Our equipment for handling Small Grain consists of very small threshers made by 
ourselves, for threshing the Individual Selections, and Plant-to-Row Work; also First- 
Year Increase Plot, Strain and Variety Test. Private Thresher for our own Multiplication 
Farms. All Small Grain is graded, removing about twenty per cent of the stock as culls. 
A CONTRIBUTION TO AGRICULTURE AND SUCCESSFUL 
FARMING 
Thousands of dollars spent annually by the Marett Seed Farm to find the best and 
most productive strains in field crops—, money value per acre. Thousands of dollars spent 
for machinery and equipment to successfully carry out this work. 
By developing strains of cotton that are not only high in production per acre but of 
a given length staple that the market demands. By the development of strains of cotton 
that germinate well in low temperature soils. 
By developing new and superior strains of wheat, barley and oats that will fill the 
farmers demand, both in production per acre, resistance to cold and diseases. 
By giving the farmer a high producing pedigreed seed at a price that is not only 
reasonable in the charge we make but a value that is superior and highly satisfactory to 
the customer, barring providence.
