Why Lose $10 to $15
On Each Bale of Cotton?
Many cotton grower* are penalized because
they persiat in planting poor and inferior seed.
Often loss sustained from this cause amounts to
$10 to $15 a bale.
YOU CANNOT GROW GOOD
COTTON FROM POOR SEED
That’s sure. We think the best seed from this
faction is—
\ THOROBRED GUARANTEED
' (A Mebane Strain)
T^is produces a medium dwarf stalk; closely
jointed heavy fruiting limbs, and mostly five
lock bolls. It is storm resisting by reason of
its tendency to droop and to have large heavy
wooded burrs. Drooping balls shed water
and remain intact. --------------------------------
THOROBRED LINT
Runs from 38 to 41 per cent and 1250 to 1350
pounds of seed cotton will produce average
bale.
Plant Thorobred Seed and make a better prof*
it. We can supply you —
