Proper Balance 
Is Keynote of Success of 
Stoneville Cotton ! 
The characteristics of a TOP NOTCH 
COTTON are: 
HIGH YIELD! 
EASE OF PICKING! 
CONSISTENT FIELD 
PERFORMANCE! 
UNIFORM STAPLE LENGTH! 
GOOD LINT PERCENTAGE! 
EXCELLENT MILL 
PERFORMANCE! 
HIGH TENSILE STRENGTH! 
HIGH GRADE SEED! 
L is generally agreed that a cotton 
which is characterized by a PROPER 
BALANCE of these eight characteristics 
is superior to cottons that are outstanding 
in only one of them. STONEVILLE COT- 
TONS have this proper balance as a re- 
sult of years of intensive SELECTIVE 
BREEDING. This balancing of the quali- 
ties desired by the farmer and demanded 
by the textile and oil mills illustrate 
vividly the program of PLANNING FOR 
THE FUTURE introduced by the STONE- 
VILLE PEDIGREED SEED CO. at the 
time of its organization and carried for- 
ward each year. 
Realizing the need of the cotton breeder 
to know intimately the needs of the tex- 
tile industry this company has had a lead- 
ing part in efforts to bring the spinner 
and the cotton breeder together. That 
these efforts have been successful is evi- 
denced in the yearly meetings of spinner 
and breeder now being held. That the 
plant breeders of the STONEVILLE 
.PEDIGREED SEED CO. have made use 
of the information gained thereby is evi- 
denced in the MILL PREFERENCE for 
STONEVILLE COTTON. 
STONEVILLE COTTON 
today represents the perfect blending of 
the spinners requirements with the farm- 
ers desires.
