MARETT’S PEDIGREED CLEVELAND WILT RESISTANT 
STRAIN No. 3 
(Increase Block 35-4-4) 
STAPLE: | 1/16" full normally. Season: Early. Cuxaracrer: Excellent. Per 
Cent Lint: 35 to 37. S1zz Bott: About 70 to 85 to pound. Type Pranr: Medium 
dwarfy with light foliage. 
This strain is offered for the first time and represents straight line selection work 
within our Cleveland Wilt Resistant cotton. It has been tested out on very heavy 
wilt-soils and in the variety tests for the year 1943 there was a visible difference in 
yield per acre, convincing to any observer. While the lint yield at this time has not 
been figured out for this season, it does lead in seed cotton per acre and we are 
very proud to offer it to you this season. For two consecutive years it has been our 
leader on heavy wilt soils in production per acre. 
We might add as compared to Strain 2 the boll type is more oval (less pointed ) 
which is an advantage in the picking quality. We cannot guarantee against wilt 
under all conditions, because of the different forms of wilt, also the possibility of 
sometimes having heavy nematode infection. Stocks of seed very limited. All seed 
Ceresan treated. 
$8.85 per bag; 12 bags, $8.50 per bag; 24 bags, $8.17 per bag.
