ARKANSAS 
Zone No. 1—Not recommended 
for commercial planting. We recom- 
mend for home planting in east 
part: Stuart, Success, Moore, Money 
Maker; in west part: Burkett, Suc- 
cess, Schley. 
Zone No. 2—Only the Eastern 
Varieties recommended: Success, 
Moore, Schley, Delmas, Money 
Maker, Stuart. We would add Burkett for hill land in the west central part. Success, Moore, 
Money Maker, Schley, and Stuart should be used for bottom lands. Plant Delmas on upland. 
Stuart seems to be especially adapted to extreme east part of this section and bottom lands in 
the western part. These are known as tested Eastern Varieties. 
Zone No. 3—Both Eastern and Western Varieties recommended—Western Varieties for 
west part and uplands; Eastern Varieties in east part and lowlands. Burkett, Western Schley, 
Texas Prolific, and Halbert are tested Western Varieties. 
Zone No. 4—Plant Western Varieties only. 
Other States—Continue zone lines northwest about 100 to 125 miles, planting Eastern 
Varieties in the lower altitudes and river bottoms of Zone 3, and the Western Varieties on 
the uplands and in the higher altitudes of Zone 3. Plant Western Varieties on all lands west 
of dividing line between Zones 3 and 4.
