Plant a Good Staple
Cotton
We have just received a car load of the famous Mis
sissippi Pi Delta and Pineland, No. 4 Cotton Seed.
This cotton has been grown in Rockdale and adjoin
ing counties for the past two years and has given
perfect satisfaction from a stand point of produc
tion, lint yield and staple. From 1250 to 1300 pounds
of dry seed cotton you can get 500 pounds of lint.
This cotton won for Rockdale county in the state con
test at the state college of agriculture last year, the
first prize for growing the best staple cotton of any
county in the state.
This cotton staples inch to 1 1-16 inch and
always brings a higher price than the short
er varieties. Because of its excellent quality
of staple.
We arc very anxious that the farmers
a good staple cotton in the territory in wbv.h
we buy cotton. This saves us going west to
buy our cotton and thereby enables us to pay
the farmer a higher price for his cotton in
the local market.
These seed are put up in 100 pound bags and
are worth $5.50 per bag, which is what these
seed actually cost us in car load lots and can
be secured from W. O. Mann, our cotton buy
er, at Conyers, Georgia.
