RICHMOND, VIRGINIA 
WOOD'S SEED COTTON grown at the top of the 
Cotton Belt, matures earlier, beating the boll weevil, 
making bumper crops of top quality lint. Blue Tag 
Certified, grown in one variety communities and 
ginned at private gins. It is picked early when dry 
to prevent spoiling and insure good germination. 
COTTON SEED 
Grown from Breeder Foundation Stock. 
Certified. High Germination. Treated. 
Ceresan treated to protect the seedlings from 
disease and cold damp weather, for 25% 
better stands, more vigorous plants, quicker 
growth, earlier maturity and higher yields. 
Delinted Seed hastens germination and 
growth, especially in dry weather. Mechanically 
delinted requires only 20 to 25 lbs. per acre; 
Acid delinted, 10 Ibs. per acre; cheaper to 
plant than ordinary seed, which takes 35 Ibs. 
per acre. 
COKER 100 WILT, Certified, Delinted. 
Grown from Breeder Foundation seed on 250 
acres in Cleveland Co., N. C. Best cotton for 
wilt infested soils. Widely adapted. 1-1/16 
inch. Extra early. High Yield. Easily picked 
by hand or machine. Superior spinning. 
The result of 20 years testing on wilt-in- 
fested soil of thousands of plants, selecting for 
wilt resistance, yield, staple, picking quality, 
storm resistance, fiber strength and spinning 
quality. It has erect plants, well spaced 
branches, and thin foliage. Leaves shed as 
cotton matures. Bolls are round, slightly 
pointed, 68 per |b. Bolls ripen uniformly, open 
extremely wide, fluff beautifully, yet storm 
resistant. Maintains a high grade during ad- 
verse seasons. Gins out 37%. Excellent, uni- 
form, strong line character. It has won most of 
the recent state and local cotton contests. J. 
H. Neeley, Chester, S. C., holds the record of 
8,275 |bs. of lint on 5 acres, or |-1/3 bales per 
acre. 
DELTAPINE 15. Ist Year from Breeder. 
Best cotton for soils not infested with wilt. Good 
fiber quality; 1-1/16-inch staple. Storm resist- 
ant yet easily picked by hand or machine. Dis- 
tinguished by its productiveness, high gin 
turnout, 41%, excellent staple and ability to 
produce a crop under adverse soil and weather 
conditions. In greater demand than any other 
variety. Developed by over 35 years breed- 
ing by one of the world's foremost cotton 
breeders on the D. & P. L. farms, which grow 
8,500 acres of this cotton, which average 1,000 
lbs. of lint cotton per acre. 
PEANUTS 
Grown from pedigreed seed, heavily recleaned, 
hand picked, high germination, free of pops. Not 
shelled, as machine shelling breaks the seed 
coat, causing poor stands. Shell and pick by 
hand; use Arasan (page 68) and Wood's Inocu- 
lation Group 5. Plant in May or early June, 1!/2 
inches deep, | inch if soil is moist. Use 500 Ibs. 
0-12-12 fertilizer per acre. On Jumbos use 300 
lbs. gypsum. Cultivate shallow and often until 
nuts start. Dust 3 times with fine sulphur. To 
harvest loosen roots with a plow, pull vines up, 
let nuts dry, stack around a stake, nuts inward. 
Peanuts will grow on any soil, light sandy soils 
produce the best. The vines are superior to al- 
falfa in fat, nearly equal in protein and feed 
livestock all winter and spring. Nuts left in the 
ground fatten hogs and give pork a superior 
flavor. 
VIRGINIA JUMBO PEANUTS 
Largest Nuts. Higher Yield, Grade and Value. 
155 days. Runner type. Pure strain with higher 
yield, larger, more uniform pod and kernel. It 
makes the highest per cent of extra large kernels 
for high grade salted nuts and candy. Pods are 
big and thick with very little dent around the 
center. Gets best prices, sold unhulled for roast- 
ing. It shells out 68% meat. Best adapted to 
light sandy soils, high in calcium. Plant 45 lbs. 
of shelled seed per acre (85 Ibs. unhulled), 6 
to 8 inches apart in 30 to 36-inch rows, closer on 
poorer soils. 
IMPROVED VALENCIA PEANUTS 
Big Red Nuts. Best for Average Soils Where 
Other Large Peanuts Yield Many Pops. 
140 days. Bunch type. A 30-lb. bushel shells out 
22 |bs. of nuts. Does well farther west and north 
than other large varieties, or after early truck 
crops in the South. Plant 40 lbs. shelled nuts per 
acre (60 lbs. unshelled) 8 to 10 inches apart in 
2\/5 to 3 ft. rows, closer on poorer soils. 
WHITE SPANISH PEANUTS 
Earliest Maturing. Highest Oil Content, 50%. 
Best for Crushing. Heavy Soils or the North. 
135 days. Bunch type. 2 small white nuts en- 
tirely fill each pod. Shells out 75%. Superior 
sweetness and flavor. Very few pops so often 
found in large varieties. Easier to grow and 
harvest. Nuts cling firmly to the roots and are 
easily cured. Plant 30 lbs. shelled nuts per acre 
(45 lbs. unshelled), 6 to 8 inches 
apart in 2 to 2!/> ft. rows, closer on 
pooper soils. 
TENNESSEE RED 
142 days. Bunch type. Long pods 
closely packed with 3 to 4 medium 
sized, red nuts with mild sweet 
flavor. Productive on almost all 
soils including heavier soils west 
of the Virginia Peanut Belt. High 
oil content and shelling per cent. 
Brings a premium for roasting. 
Plant 40 lbs. shelled nuts per acre 
(60 Ibs. unshelled) 6 to 8 inches 
apart in 27 to 33 inch rows, closer 
on poorer soils. 
PRiGsbse—rRvONT MOR "CATAL OG 
Late Spectabilis makes a tremendous growth. 
CROTALARIA 
THE KING OF SOIL BUILDING CROPS 
One of the best summer green manure crops, 
makes twice as much leafy growth and root 
nodules as cow peas or velvet beans, 15 to 20 
tons per acre. When turned under the cash 
value of nitrogen is estimated at $40.00 per 
acre, besides the untold value of humus which 
prevents erosion, holds water in sandy soil and 
opens up heavy soil. Yields of following crops 
are frequently doubled. Completely smothers 
out summer weeds; grows well on any soil, 
good or waste land; requires no lime, fertilizer 
or cultivation, although early cultivation pays 
as it grows slowly at first. From corn planting 
time to July, sow 20 lbs. scarified seed per 
acre broadcast, or 8 lbs. in 3-f. rows. Cover 
I" inches and roll. Use Arasan and Wood's 
Inoculant Group 5. 
LATE CROTALARIA SPECTABILIS 
7 ft. tall. Yields green manure, equal to 800 
lbs. of nitrate of soda per acre. Stalks pithy, 
easily plowed under, decay readily. Not eaten 
by livestock or insect pests. Will starve nem- 
atodes out of the soil. Thrives on all soils. 
GIANT STRIATA CROTALARIA 
Outstanding for mammoth growth and seed 
production. Grows rapidly, resisting weeds 
and grass. When turned under the green 
manure and nitrogen gathered by its roots in- 
crease yields of corn or other crops enormously. 
IMPROVED VALENCIA has long large pods, each filled with 3 or 4 
nuts with the most delicious flavor. Best for home use. Brings a pre- 
mium on the market. High shelling percent.
