Notice to the Farmers.

DO you intend to plant cotton?
II so, do you intend to plant seed
that will not open. Our seed have
been tried and they open in this eli
mate. Only about 80 bushels left, SO
if you will phone us to book you for as
many bushels OF Simpson Early Pro-
life Cotton, the earliest cotton in the
world, as you want, we will do so.
They cost you $1.75 per bushel, but
every seed is good, and, being small,
you only use about one-half as many as
the old green native seed. We guaran-
tee you from one pound to 500 pounds
more per acre than any other seed you
can plant. Does it pay to plant seed
that will not open, or seed that will
open and give you full crop instead
OF only half d crop?
