COKER 100 STAPLE Strain 1 
AN EXTRA LENGTH COKER 100—BRED FOR THE DELTA 
A new Coker 100 cotton, first offered in 
Spring of 1945, with extra staple length, 
bred especially for the Delta areas of 
Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana and Mis- 
sourl in answer to the constant demand 
for a Coker 100 cotton that would produce 
a staple 4.” to 340” longer than the regular 
strains of Coker 100. 
We are particularly pleased to have this 
new cotton to offer these growers. It is bred 
from our renowned Coker 100 Strain 3 line 
and is typically Coker 100 in type with 
more vigor, a somewhat larger leaf, a 
larger boll, excellent fluffing and picking 
qualities, the usual high production and 
good lint outturn. 
The lint sample forwarded to the U. S. 
Department of Agriculture Fibre Labora- 
tory was classed as being 114” minus in 
staple length, but a 29-bale crop of this 
cotton that was produced on 16 acres was 
classed as being 154.” full to 134,” full in 
length,—the length that so many of our 
Delta customers are interested in. We have 
set up a separate breeding program on this 
cotton to insure them a continuous supply 
of improved seed.
