Culture: The cultivation of Cotton varies considerably of course, 
according to the locality and soil, but in general the ground 
should be prepared by thorough plowing and harrowing, with rows 
of 40 to 50 inches apart, 5 feet being given where the land is 
unusually rich. Seeding is best done with the cotton planter, and 
the young plants should be thinned to about 18 or 20 inches in 
the rows; if the ground is very rich, two plants may be left in a 
hill, but otherwise only one. Frequent shallow cultivation is 
necessary to keep the surface free from crust, and planting should 
never be done until danger of frost is passed. 
One of the best cottons for. 
CERTIFIED DELTAPINE 14. DELTAPINE 14. soil not infested with ‘wilt’. 
It has good fibre quality, 1-16 to 1¥ staple. Its excellent staple 
and productiveness under adverse soil and weather conditions 
make it a most desirable sort. The seed we offer is delinted and 
treated with Ceresan. (Write for prices.)

2% Ceresan 
INCREASE YOUR COTTON PROFITS 10 TO 20% 
Two per cent Ceresan generally protects the seed against decay- 
ing in cold, wet soil and the young seedling against damping-off. 
A pound treats 5 bushels. 12 Ibs., $2.10, postpaid. 
PEANUTS 
Our Peanuts are Unshelled 
(Wilt Resistant.) An early dwarf 
variety with well formed fruiting 
branches and thin dark green foliage.

The medium bolls are 
About 70 to the 
pound. The lint is 1 1-16 inches in length, and will run 36 to 
38%. One of the best varieties for wilt infested soils. The seed 
we offer is delinted and treated with Ceresan. (Write for prices.)

Arasan 
Arasan 
Treating Peanut seed with Arasan prevents much of the loss from rottening. Arasan increases 
the average stand of Peanuts by a third more plants from treated seed than from untreated 
seed. Cost less than 10c¢ per acre for treating. Oz., 20c; 8 ozs., 90c; 4 Ibs., $5.45, postpaid. 
Culture: Peanuts do well on most southern farm land, whether light, loamy or even sandy, 
providing lime is not lacking; for without an abundant supply of lime they cannot be successfully 
grown, 1200 to 1500 pounds being often put upon an acre, with good results. Soils rich in 
marl, of course, require no liming. Plant in May or early June, the dwarf varieties in 2/2-foot 
’ rows and the running varieties in 3-foot rows, dropping one nut every 10 to 12 inches in the 
rows, covering 1 to 1% inches deep, and the Peanuts should be shelled before planting. If 
large quantities are to be planted, a regular Peanut planter should be used. When the vines are 
started, thorough cultivation must begin and continue until just before the nuts begin to form. 
Do not cultivate too late in the season, as late cultivation is likely to injure the formation of 
the nuts. Do not plant on the same land two years in succession. 
This is by far the most profitable of dwarf varieties, the nuts are 
MAMMOTH BUNCH. almost as showy as those of the Running Jumbo. Twenty-two 
pounds to the bushel. Plant 3 bushels to an acre. Lb., 75¢; 5 [bs., $2.65; 10 Ibs., $4.85, postpaid.

SPANISH, Land which would not make 10% of a 
crop of the Jumbo will often produce 
excellent bunch Spanish nuts, they require very little 
cultivation. Are easily gathered, the nuts clinging 
firmly to the roots at harvest, and no kind cures so 
Running 
Jumbo Peanuts 
RUNNING JUMBO. 
The largest variety, and especially 
adapted to light, sandy soil. They 
yield the highest percentage of 
large kernels. Twenty-two pounds readily. Immense quantities are now grown simply 
to the bushel. Plant 3 bushels to for hogs, hardly any food being more fattening or 
an acre. Lb., 75¢c; 5 Ibs., $2.65; wholesome. Thirty pounds to the bushel. Plant 11/2

AUSTRIAN WINTER PEAS 
Considered by some southern growers equal to Hairy Vetch as a winter hay crop or for 
improving the soil. In the South they mature earlier than Vetch, making it possible to 
follow the Peas with cotton. They should be planted in Sept. or Oct., and can usually be 
plowed under in time for spring crop. They may also be planted in Feb. for forage crop. 
Bushel, 60 Ibs. For an acre, when sown alone, 60 Ibs. When sown with one bu. of rye or 
two bu. of oats, 30 Ibs., Write for prices. 
CROTALARIA 
A remarkable fast growing legume that produces a heavy growth of foliage for humus. 
The seed should be sown from April to July 1 inches deep, using 6 to 8 Ibs. of seed, 
if planted in 3 ft. rows; or 20 to 25 Ibs. if sown broadcast. For best results, the seed should 
be scarified and inoculated to produce quicker germination. 
GIANT STRIATA. One of the best varieties on account of its tremendous growth and 
seed production. Grows rapidly, choking out weeds and grass, and 
frequently will yield ten to fifteen tons of green manure per acre. When this is turned 
back into the soil with the nitrogen gathered by the nodules on its roots, yields of corn 
and other crops are increased enormously. (Not edible.) Lb., 45¢; 5 Ibs., $1.60; 10 Ibs., 
$3.05, postpaid. Write for prices in larger quantities.
