OUR TWENTY-FOURTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE 
The Marett Farm & Seed Company was organized to do plant breeding 
work in heavy field seeds in 1918. During the time from that date to the 
present, we have shipped seed into most of the counties of the Southeast, and 
the volume has been sufficient to establish a confidence that we treasure 
very highly. Our able staff of Plant Breeders has made it possible not only 
for us to develop new and superior strains and varieties of cotton, corn and 
small grain, but the extensive selection work, together with hybrid work 
has enabled us to introduce new varieties which have brought to the grower — 
many thousands of dollars in increased production per acre. 
SMALL GRAIN 
In recent years we found it profitable to have on our farms a green- 
house for work with rust disease. It gives a better opportunity for thor- 
oughly testing selections which can then be transplanted to the field. This 
equipment enables us to work with many thousands of selections each season. 
In addition to the work with the various races of rust, and also with the 
striped leaf disease of barley, there is also being conducted a very extensive 
program of breeding for resistance in the small grains to the different forms 
of smut.
