Louisiana grower first 
planted Delfos in 1924 
J. P. Brown (standing on wagon in pic- 
ture below), planter and ginner of Lake 
Providence, Louisiana, has been associ- 
ated with Delfos cottons since 1924. 
“Delfos 9169 is the best cotton we ever 
planted,” he says. “Delfos always gives 
me more cotton and better staple. I am 
going to plant my place in 9169 next 
year and so are more of my neighbors. 
Delfos 9169 means more money per acre.” 
World's Record Cotton Yield 
Made By Delfos 9169 
Although not too clear, the picture at left shows Charlie 
Clark of Yazoo City, Mississippi, standing in his Delfos cotton. 
Mr. Clark won first place in the 1951 Mississippi 5-Acre 
Contest with Delfos 9169. He produced a record-breaking 
yield—8,915 pounds of lint cotton from the five acres for 
an average yield per acre of 1,783 pounds. This is a world’s 
record. Mr. Clark says, ‘“‘Delfos is just the best cotton I ever 
planted. Give Delfos 10 days any time in the season and it 
will put on a bale to the acre. My crop this year is running 
1-1/8 and 1-5/32. For longer staple, greater yields and adapt- 
ability to better types of soils, you just can’t beat Delfos.”

‘Most dependable cotton we've ever 
grown, is what Mitchners think of Delfos 
Mr. “Tib” and Mr. Sam Mitchner of Lake Providence, Louisiana, really 
believe in Delfos 9169. “We have been planting Delfos 9169 since 1945 
and it’s the most dependable cotton we've ever grown. We averaged 650 
Ibs. of lint per acre in 1952 and it looks like we'll do even better this year.” 
Mr. “Tib” is pictured below looking over part of their outstanding Hereford 
herd. In the other picture Mr. Sam is shown talking with Harry Rose about 
how well Delfos 9169 lends itself to machine picking.
