A , pound , of these seed , will ... plant . , one-fifth or - an acre, and . witn .... proper attention should yield enough to plant a crop. The seed were tested in a list of thirty varieties by the Georgia Experiment Station and a bulletin recently issued by Director Red- ding shows that the African Limbless Cotton produced 70 pounds more per acre than any other variety, and 161 pounds more per acre than the average of thirty leading varieties. The African Limbless Cotton produced 780 pounds of lint per acre, which is nearly four times the average on the farms of the South. This shows what high, fertilization and thorough culture will do with these excellent Seed. The value of the product, counting cotton at S cents and seed at 13 cents a bushel, was over S4S per acre. The TheJournal docs not guaran t ee results, but the J) ? of the test at the Experiment Station makes 1 it worth a farrr. X 4 file to test these seed when he can get them for nothing.
