RUSSELL'S BIG BOLL COTTON SEED
Read what other farmers say about it. We have the seed
here ready for you direct from the grower.
Anson, Texas, November 28, 1924.
To Whom It May Concern :
This is to inform the publilc that I have raised the
Russell Big Boll Cotton this year and have lost at l«ast
one hundred baits by not having my entire crop planted
in it. It has good lint percentage, big bo41s, picks good
and stands the drouth well.
This is the report of the Cranston & Williams Gin
Co., Bale No. 2450: Seed cotton 1330, 40.8 per cent lint,
1 1-8 staple, bale weight, 543 pounds.
T. J. STUBBS.
Waco, Texas, Oct. 23, 1924.
Russell Cotton Breeding Farms,
Annona, Texas.
Gentlemen:
It is with pleasure that I advise you of the results
obtained from a hundred busheJs of your Russell Big
Big Bojl Cotton seed that I bought from you this year.
This cotton stood the dry weather better than any
cotton on my farms and is making more seed cotton to
the acre, has larger bolls, easier picked, better lint per
cent than any cotton we have planted. It proved
through the reavy rains we had in September that it is
a storm-proof cotton. 1 expect to plant all my farms
in your c<>tton another year.
Very trulv yours,
J. B. EARLE, Pres. Liberty Nat'I Bank.
Hillsboro, Texas, January 27, 1925
Russell Cotton Breeding Farms,
Annona, Texas.
Dear Sirs:
It is with a grcr* deal of pride and pleasure that T
write yiu of my success with your Russell Big Boll
Cottoin. I have grown Russell Big Boll Cotton in 1922,
1923, and 1924, also several other varieties. My Rus-
sell Big Boll has given me the best yield per acre and
better turnout at the in. In 1923 it w<.n first premium
as best five pounds of seed cotton exhibited at Hill
County Fair, Hillsboro, Texas. This same basket of
cotton won fourth monev State Fair, Dallas Texas.
Respectfully. GEORGE W. CRAIG.

bales and will get about one-half more.
I am growing Kasch cotton, seed direct from Breed
er. planted same time and worked same. It is making
about one-third bale of cotton to the acre.
Russell Cotton stays in bulls better and pickers
picked more than in the other cotton. Lint turnout 41
per cent. The Russell is the best cotton I have.
1340 pounds seed cotton, 577 pound bale.
