Members of the Dellas
County Cotton Improvement
Committee recently met and
selected fifteen varieties of
cotton aa best suited for Dal-
las county production. At this
meeting the results of tests
with different varieties of

continue its work another

number of varieties to five or
six. and eventually to one or
two varieties in the county.
The committee discarded sev|
era! varieties as unsuitvd (or
