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! 
lk 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.
