Deltapine 12 Cotton 
CERESAN for Treating Cotton Seed—The average for several 
pene in Arkansas, Texas, Georgia, North and South Carolina 
show that CERESAN treated seed yielded an increase of $6.71 
more cotton per acre. 
ALYCE CLOVER 
AN OUTSTANDING HAY PRODUCER 
_ There is no crop that will produce hay that will maintain 
its leaves, Sweet fragrance and green color as long after har- 
vest. It is equal to alfalfa in palatability and nutrition. Easily 
cured, low in moisture and dries quickly, Can be hauled in the 
day cut without risk of spoiling. It is a three-purpose legume 
which will grow on and improve poor soils, yield an excellent 
quality hay, and has few superiors for summer and early fall 
grazing. The root system of this plant is such that it can not 
be pulled up hy grazing. A single plant will send runners in 
all directions and cover as much as a Six-foot circle. With ample 
moisture will give two cuttings of hay per year. 
ADAPTABILITY—wWill thrive well in Eastern Virginia, the 
Piedmont and Coastal ‘sections of the Carolinas and all Gulf 
states. It will grow on a wide range of soils, from the poorest 
sand land to good clay loam soils. However, the sandy loam 
soils satisfy it best. (Not. adaptable to wet lands or heavy clay.) 
SEEDING TIME—Plant only during May and June as the 
seed will not germinate until warm weather. A good seed bed 
is important, discing and harrowing to eliminate,as many weeds 
as possible before planting. It is strictly a warm weather plant 
rather Slow in germinating. Should you have ample moisture 
after planting and weeds and natural grasses get ahead of the 
clover, it is advisable to cut them off with the mower blade 
raised just above the clover. The Alyce Clover will then out- 
grow the weeds and grass and no more trouble will be had 
with them, Sow 15 ta 20 Ibs. per acre broadcast. If land is 
weed infested, suggest planting in 34 to 4-foot rows and culti- 
vate, using 5 lbs. of seed per acre, Give seed a light covering. 
FERTILIZATION—We recommend 200 to 300 Ibs. of super- 
phosphate and 50 to 100 Ibs. of muriate of potash per acre. This 
is particularly important for large growth. .Experiments have 
shown at least a foot taller growth when fertilizer is applied, 
reaching a height of three to four feet. - :

WOOD'S COTTON SEED 
Ceresan Treated to Produce More Vigorous Plants 
Plant 30 to 40 lbs. per acre in 3 to 4-foot rows, when the soil be- 
gins to warm, not over 1 inch deep and drill thick. (Deltapine 12, 
being delinted, plant 20 to 25 lbs, per acre). Cultivate shallow and 
frequently until the branches begin to overlap. Apply 600 Ibs.

DELTAPINE 12  (. & P. BL. 12) 
A Cotton of Proven Merit 
Deltapine 12 (D. & P. L. 12) was chosen in the spring of 1940 to 
replace the famous Deltapine A’(D. & P, L. 11-A), and has proved 
a most worthy successor, It is closely related to Deltapine A and 
is Similar, but superior in most characteristics. It is more produc- 
tive, has as good staple with a better lint turnout, and is more 
disease resistant. In D. & P. L. experimental fields it has produced 
a 4-year average yield of 8 per cent more lint per acre than Delta- 
pine A (D. & P, L. 11-A). In 1989 Deltapine 12 was only planted on 
their Empire seed inereasing unit, and they harvested 1,868 bales. 
An accurate, bale by bale record showed an average lint turnout 
for the entire crop of 40.6 per cent. In four variety tests conducted 
by the Alabama Experiment Station during 1939 and 1940, the av- 
erage lint turnout was 44 per cent each season. Crops in the Missis- 
sippi River Valley produced a staple ranging from 1-1/32 inches to 
1-1/8 inches, with 1-3/32 inches predominating. The staple is excep- 
tionally uniform, of good character and quality. 
With two successful seasons behind it, Deltapine 12 continues 
to pile up such impressive records that it is today the most discussed 
and widely publicized variety in the whole South. Distinguished 
by its productiveness, its high gin turnout, its excellent staple and 
its ability to produce a crop under adverse soil and weather condi- 
tions, it is no wonder that Deltapine 12 planting seeds are in greater 
demand than any other variety. 
Deltapine 12 has made an excellent record in variety tests at va- 
rious experiment stations, and has given splendid yields wherever 
it has been planted. In South Carolina in 1940 it was second in yield 
at the Pee Dee Ixperiment Station, having been outyielded only by 
a non-commercial Deltapine strain. Deltapine 12 was first in yield 
at the Edisto station at Blackville, S. C. 
We are authorized distributors for this very fine cotton seed in 
Virginia and the Carolinas, and owing to the increasing demand and 
limited supply available. we suggest buying your requirements 
early. Write for descriptive circular. 
D. & P. L. 12 Cotton is delinted, treated and requires only 20 to 
25 lbs. per acre, making it economical for planting. 
WOOD’S INGOLD COTTON 
1-1/16 Inch Staple—39% Lint : 
Its early maturity, long staple, and high yielding qualities have 
made our Wood's Ingold Cotton one of our leading varieties. Grown 
in the northern part of the cotton belt, it is two weeks earlier than 
most cottons, generally getting ahead of the boll weevil. Makes a 
sturdy, upright medium bush plant. Very heavy fruiter, often 5 
large bolls on one limb, open wide, but do not shed out. 
COKER 200-1 COTTON 
1-1/8 Inch Staple—38% Lint 
A new Coker 100-2 selection, more uniform type, thinner foliage, 
earlier. Superior for close spacing on fertile non-wilt soil. Small 
stalks and leaves, thin foliage, quick fruitage. 75 bolls per lb. Opens 
wide, fluffs beautifully, storm and weather resistant. 
CERTIFIED COKER 100-2 COTTON 
1-1/16 to 1-1/8 Inch Staple—39% Lint 
10 days earlier than Farm Relief and outyields it on medium or 
good land. One of the heaviest yielding cottons on non-wilt land, 
due to escaping boll weevil damage by its extreme earliness; thin 
dark green foliage. Bolls slightly pointed, open wide, fluffs beauti- 
fully, yet storm-resistant. 
4-IN-1 WILT-RESISTANT COTTON 
1-1/16 Inch Staple—37% Lint 
One of the heaviest yielding and earliest wilt-resistant cottons. 
A highly dependable cotton well suited for planting on wilt infested 
land or thin soil. A vigorous grower and early. 
FARM RELIEF COTTON 
1-1/16 Inch Staple—40% Lint 
This has been a dependable strain of cotton for many years 
throughout the Carolinas. Our seed stock this year is of exceptional 
quality, testing 89% germination. 
CROTALARIA 
A VALUABLE SOIL BUILDER 
It is generally conceded to be one of the best summer soil- 
building crops, makes much more leafy growth and root nodules 
than cowpeas or velvet beans, frequently 4,000 pounds per acre. 
When turned under the cash value of nitrogen is estimated at 
$20.00 per acre, besides the untold value of humus which pre- 
vents erosion, holds water in sandy soil and opens up heavy 
soil. Yields of following crops are frequently doubled; com- 
pletely smothers out summer weeds; grows well on any soil, 
good or waste land; requires no lime, fertilizer or cultivation, 
although early cultivation pays ass it grows slowly at first. Sow 
from corn planting time through June, 20 Ibs. scarified seed per 
acre broadcast, or § lbs in 3-foot cultivated rows. Cover 13 
inches and roll. Do not plant unscarified seed as it germinates 
poorly, requiring twice as much seed per acre. Our seed is 
searified, germinates readily, and is 99% pure. Inoculate. 
LATE CROTALARIA SPECTABILIS—The tallest and best cro- 
talaria for soil improvement. grows 7 feet tall, yields 15 tons 
or more of green manure, equal to 700 to 1,000 pounds of nitrate 
of soda per acre. Stalks are pithy, easily plowed under and de- 
cay readily, Is not eaten by livestock or attacked by insect 
pests, nematodes or other soil diseases. Crotalaria will defin- 
itely starve nematodes out of the soil. 
EARLY CROTALARIA SPECTABILIS—Similar to late, but 
makes one-third less growth, matures a month earlier, reseed- 
ing before frost.
