Nit Afifi. This plant produced what has been known as the Yuma variety of cotton, having a staple about IF inches in length. This variety was produced in commercial quantities in Arizona in 1912, the entire crop pro- duction of that year being 2S0 bales; in 1913. 2,200 bales; in 1914 6.1S7 bales; in 1915, 1895 bales in 1916, S,3S1 bales,and in 1917. 15,966 bales
 In 1910. the Pima variety was found in a single plant growing in a field of Yuma cotton at Sacaton, Arizona. n progeny row grown the following years from seed from this plant demon strated that a new and distinct variety had appeared. The color of this cotton was lighter than the Yuma variety, the fiber silkier and finer and the length increased to 1 S-A inches. During the season of 1e16-17, there were grown 253 bales of Pima variety, the seed from which were planted on about 1000 acres giving yield of 2,260 bales. The growth of this new variety was supervised by the United States de- partment of agriculture, Gas were all previous selections and production Of Pima cotton). The ginning of this cotton was done at one gin, no other variety of cotton being ginned or handled at that gin, and the seed were carefully sacked as they came from the gin. From this pure selected seed, an estimated crop of 34000 bales of Pima cotton will be produced this sea son an an area of between 10000 and so, 1000 acres.

 December 30, 1918. Gentltmen:
 We feel that it may interest you to know the remarkable development which has been obtained during recent years of a new type of long staple cot ton, known as the American Egyptian of the Pima variety. principally pro- duced in Arizona where the estimated crop this year will amount to about 34,D00 bales.
 The development of this new type of cotton is the result of about 12 years continuous field work by the depart ment of agriculture.
 For the last four years this cotton has been produced in steadily increas- ing commercial quantities, its volume this year nearly equalling that of the Sea Island crop.
 The quality of this cotton, owing to very careful method of seed selection and government inspection. together with constantly improving cultural methods has steadily improved, result ing in an unusual degree of uniform ity of the length of fiber
 The recent tests which have been made under the supervision of the war department and the bureau of markets of the department of agriculture, in connection with the use of this Ameri- can Egyptian cotton of the Pima va riety. in the manufacture of balloon. airplane and gas mask cloth in which yarns running from No. SO to no have | been used, have resulted in the pro- duction of fabrics which have exceeded

were grown during the season of 191T- 1918, 2,966 bales. Of this crop. 2,112 bales were ginned at one gin Tempe, Arizona, the grade and staple percent ages being as follows:
 Grades. Staples.

 No. or Choice. .17Io 1Ss to It 37ro No. or Standard 9Gc
 No. 3 or Medium 7Go IF to 1is 2%o Below Medium .. 1%o
 Between TOO and 500 bales were gnned at another gin in Tempe. the grade and staple percentages of these being fully equal to the 2,112 bales.
 The records of the government class ification to date on the present 191S- 1919 crop shows that g. per cent of the cotton classed to November 2S, had a length of fiber of %4 inches and 45 per cent showed a length of fiber og 1is inches.
 Because of the growing commercial importance of this cotton, exhaustive spinning tests have been made which show that the American Egyptian cot | ton is very practical substitute for Sea Island and Sakellaridis Egyptian cottons. It may be successfully used l in all fine cotton goods and knitted fabrics requiring maximum wearing qualities. The principal uses in which Results of tests indicate that there is | it has proven it's value are automobile tire fabrics. sewing thread, fine qual 1 ity dress goods, knitted fabrics. and during war conditions it has been con siderably used in manufacturing air plane, balloon and mask cloths

no reason whatever why this new va riety of cotton is not a desirable sub stitute for Sea Island and Sakellarids Egyptian cottons as it's staple is a lit tie longer and in every other respect seems to possess equal characteristics. This is substantiated by the testimony of several large manufacturers of fine goods.
 During the summer and fall of 1915, the department of agriculture made comparative spinning tests of Ameri- can Egyptian cotton with Sea Island and Sakellaridis- Egyptian cottons at the New Bedford Textile school. New Bedford Massachusetts, the results of which are given in departmental bull lettin No. 359 which may be obtained upon application 10 the department of agriculture. These three cottons were practically the same in grade and char acter and were tested under the same mechanical conditions. A. series of yarn numbers ranging from 10 to 100s were made from each variety of cot ton. Results indicate that the tensile
 strength and other manufacturing
 properties were practically the same.
 Bleaching, dyeing and mercerization 1 tests were also made which show that 1 these properties were also practically | equal.
 During the fall of 1917 and spring Of l 191 the department of agriculture
 made comparative tests ofthe three va
 rieties previously tested. These tests

merits Of the American Egyptian cot ton. In doing this MT. Heard sug D gested that a statement be prepared by the bureau of markets concerning the Pima cotton industry of this val ley, setting forth the results of tests of the product, and that this statement be sent to the spinners.
 Accordingly this was done, and un- der the date of December 30 Charles J. Brand, chief of the bureau of markets, sent out the following letter and de- scription of the Pima cotton industry to hundreds of spinners of fine cotton, and that is probably a contributing cause of the recent interest shown by the representatives of spinners of fine cotton in the Salt River Valley. Be- cause of it's general interest the letter
