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 inches 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. 
4-12-4 fertilizer per acre. 
DELTAPINE 14 (D. & P. L. 14) 
A Cotton of Proven Merit 
Deltapine 14 was chosen in the spring of 1942 to replace the 
famous Deltapine 12. Deltapine 14 has been tested thoroughly at 
Scott, Mississippi, during the past four years, 1938-1941, and it has 
outyielded all other varieties that they have tried for that period. In 
the four years Deltapine 14 has been compared with Deltapine 12 in 
ten separate variety and strain tests. In all but one Strain 14 out- 
yielded Strain 12 with an average of 4.8%. The Delta and Pine Land 
Company advised us on September 30, 1942, about Strain 14 as fol- 
lows: “On all of our properties we have the best crop we have ever. 
produced. From literally thousands of acres we are picking ap- 
proximatly 1,000 lbs. of lint cotton per acre.”’ Over 9,000 acres were 
grown last season and on this entire acreage it has proved more pro- 
ductive, about 5% to 10% fewer bolls required to make a pound of 
seed cotton or lint, with a somewhat longer staple and a larger 
boll than have either Deltapine 12 or Deltapine 11-A. 
For stand insurance Deltapine 14 Cotton Seed are mechanically 
delinted and treated with Ceresan. The first promotes rapid germina- 
tion, especially if moisture is deficient. The second treatment pro- 
tects against disease and cold weather. Careful experiments made 
over a number of years show that normally with early planted cot- 
ton we have from 25% to 50% more plants at thinning time from 
treated than from untreated seed. 
With many successful seasons behind it, Deltapine Cotton Seed 
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 ex- 
cellent staple and its ability to produce a crop under adverse soil 
and weather conditions it is no wonder that Deltapine cotton seeds 
are in greater demand than any other variety. 
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 descrpitive circular. : 
D. & P. L. 14 Cotton is delinted, treated, and requires only 20 to 
25 lbs. per acre, making it economical for planting. 
COKER - WILDS COTTON sstrain 12 
Recognized as one of the best upland long staple cottons for the 
Southern States. Has many good qualities, such as_ earliness, 
drought resistance, large bolls, high production and early fruitage. 
Percentage of lint 33% to 35% and from 1% in. to 1% in. in length. 
A. semi-dwarf, open, 1 to 3 vegetative branches and well spaced 
fruiting branches, assuring a better and more uniform opening. 
COKER - WILDS COTTON strain 13 
One year later strain than 12. Combines high yield, staple and 
spinning value. Particularly adapted to uplands throughout the 
Carolinas and Gulf states. The dependability, earliness, drought re- 
sistance, high yields of excellent. gin turnout has won a high rating 
by growers of Staple Cotton, 
COKER 100 WILT RESISTANT sstrain 1 
One of the most dependable wilt varieties, combining earliness, 
yield, thin foliage and open type. Has an outstanding record in 
yield and wilt resistance, ranking highest in average yield on badly 
infested soils in many southern states and tests. This strain is well 
adapted to wilt and non-wilt soils, and its remarkable performance 
throughout the South makes it a safe cotton to plant on any soil. 
The yield this past year of the seed we are offering yielded approxi- 
mately 600 lbs. lint per acre. Percentage of lint 37% to 89%. Lint 
length 1-1/32 in. to 1-1/16 in. with thin foliage. 
COKER 100 - 3 COTTON

also thrives well on poor soil. A reasonably early strain, well 
adapted to any soils in the cotton belt not infested with wilt. Bolls

produced 650 lbs. lint per acre. 
We can also supply limited quantities of Coker 100-5. 
COKER 200 - 3 
Due to its extreme earliness, thin foliage and small stalk growth, 
has few equals for planting on fertile soils or for close planting on 
average soils that are wilt free. A truly dependable cotton for Vir-
