Combines Yield, Staple, Spinning Value 
Wilds Strain 16 is a beautiful flat topped, 
determinate, more spreading cotton, with 
exceptionally high tensile strength and spin- 
ning value. It more nearly approaches the 
ideal toward which we have been working 
and we offer it in the full assurance that it 
will make a greater contribution to growers, 
manufacturers and to our defense program.

COKER-WILDS 
STRAIN 15 
Coker-Wilds Strain 15 tested on our farms 
in competition with earlier strains has 
shown a higher money return per acre. It 
is bred from Wilds Strain 138 and has its 
many good qualities, such as earliness, de- 
sirable type and drouth resistance. Its large 
bolls open wide with desirable fluffiness. This 
cotton is of extra early fruitage, a good 
lint turnout averaging from 33% to 35% 
under good conditions, and produces a 
strong, silky fiber averaging 1%” to 1%” 
or even longer when growing and soil con- 
ditions are ideal. 
The plant is semi-dwarf and of open type 
with from one to three vegetative branches. 
The bolls are round ovate, slightly pointed 
and usually average from 65 to 70 to the 
pound. 
Coker-Wilds is being successfully grown 
over a wide territory. It is giving satisfac- 
tory results in the irrigated areas of New 
Mexico and west Texas, in many parts of 
the Mississippi Valley and from north 
Florida to North Carolina.

IMPORTANT NOTE —Growing long 
staple cotton is a specialty. We do not 
recommend its planting by any new grow- 
ers who are not familiar with additional 
care in the picking, drying, ginning and 
marketing necessary to secure a superior 
product. Middling or better smoothly ginned 
lint must be produced for its growing to be 
profitable.
