COKER-WILDS 
Strain 12 
SOLD OUT 
Wilds Strain 12 traces its ancestry back to a very 
superior plant selection of Wilds Strain 9. It is the 
sole survivor of a large number of good plants that 
were in plant-to-row test in 1937. 
The seed show unusual vitality. A stand is quickly 
secured and maintained. The plants make a quick, 
vigorous, healthy growth, are deep-rooted and show 
marked drought resistance. The plants are ideal 
Wilds in type—semi-dwarf, very uniform and 
have medium thin foliage. A crop is quickly set, the 
bolls are large, round ovate; open wide, fluff and 
pick easily. It produces a strong silky staple of 13%” 
to 1%” in length, under good conditions, and an 
average lint yield of from 33% to 35%. 
It has demonstrated its superiority over previous 
strains both in tests and increase. It led all Wilds 
strains in test in 1939 in pounds of seed cotton, 
pounds of lint and money value per acre. In total 
money value it led the entire test, the lint and seed 
being valued at $92.84 per acre, the next highest 
was Wilds 11, which was valued at $88.57 per acre.

Growing long staple cotton is a specialty. We do not recom- 
mend its planting by any new growers who are not familiar 
with additional care necessary in the picking, drying, ginning 
and marketing necessary to secure a superior product. Middling 
or better smoothly ginned lint must be produced for its growing 
to be profitable.
