Strongly Wilt-resistant 
Cotton wilt or blight is more or less a problem in 
most of the Cotton Belt, and in its resistance to this 
disease D. G P. L. No. 12 is ahead of any other 
strain of D. & P. L. that | have tried.~ (n=tacreia 
so disease-resistant that it may safely be planted 
on any moderately wilt-infested soils with the cer- 
tainty, under fair seasonal conditions, of high and 
profitable yields. In wilt tests in Alabama, “‘Delta- 
pine 12 has the highest 2-year average yield of the 
tests conducted at 8 stations in various parts of the 
state, with 23 varieties selected for wilt-resistance 
or tolerance.”’ 
All my Seed Ceresan-treated 
For several years, all my cotton seed for planting 
have been ceresan-treated, for | have found this 
treatment an excellent means toward helping to 
get and hold good stands in cold, wet springs, when 
young cotton is likely to die. Ceresan is a mercury 
dust poison, and treating seed with it kills the dis- 
ease germs or organisms that cause seed to rot in 
the ground, or the young plants to die after they 
come up. An average of a great many tests indi- 
cates that ceresan treatment alone may be expected 
to increase yields as much as 10 per cent. 
In addition, my seed are State-inspected for purity 
and germination, delinted, graded, and packed in 
new |100-pound cotton bags. 
Give This Cotton a Trial 
‘Give this really great cotton a trial, and | believe 
you will find, as | have, that it is the best you have 
ever grown. Out of 20 years’ experience in pro- 
ducing good planting seed, | unhesitatingly put it 
at the top among all the varieties | have seen or 
tried.
