DELTAPINE 14 (D.&P.L. 14) 
Registered Seed—Produced by the Originators 
Deltapine 14 was chosen in the spring of 1942 to replace the fa- 
mous. 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 
outyielded Strain 12 with an average of 4.8%. The Delta and Pine 
Land Company advised us on September 30, 1942, about Strain 14 
as follows: “On all of our properties we have the best crop we have 
ever produced. From literally thousands of acres we are picking 
approximately 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. productive, 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 germ- 
ination, especially if moisture is deficient. The second treatment 
protects against disease and cold weather. Careful experiments 
made over a number of years show that normally with early 
planted cotton 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 distributers for this very fine cotton seed hee & 
Virginia and the Carolinas and owing to the increasing demand 
and limited supply available, we suggest buying your requirements 
early. Write for descriptive circular.

gins to warm, not over 1 inch deep and drill thick. (Deltapine 14, 
being delinted, plant 20 to 25 Ibs. per acre). Cultivate shallow and 
frequently until the branches begin to overlap. Apply 600 Ibs.
