Beware Of Cotton
Seed Sold As A
New Variety

Cheap cotton seed, given fancy
name and a high price, is being
peddled in North Carolina again
this year.
Buying such seed is not only a
waste of money, said P. H. Kline,
plant breeding agronomist at State
College, but it also leads to a seri-
Gus deterioration of the cotton crop.
Last year, he said, farmers were
offered Mars Rose seed, claimed to
be a marvellous new variety, in
packages of 81 each. At this rate,
the seed was selling for $50 a
bushel.
Yet actual tests have shown this
seed to be decidedly inferior to
standard varieties recommended for
this State, Kline declared.
This year, Mars Rose and Dixie
Rose, both apparently just alike,
are being peddled again for "out-
rageously high prices" he went on.
Neither of these seeds will pro-
duce as high a yield as the standard
varieties, Kline stated; their staple
is only 1916 inch in length and
irregular, thel lint percentage is low
and the bols are small.
At the Piedmont branch station
near Statesville, experiments with
ten varieties showed that Mars Rose
was the lowest in lint yield.
A test in Alabama placed Mars
Rose near the bottom in a test of
80 varieties, and in Arkansas a test
of 40 varieties found Mars Rose
next to the lowest.
Similar tests in other States have
given like results, Kline pointed out
And although the tests were made
with Mars Rose, he said the same
may be said Of Dixie Rose, as the
two appear to be very much alike.
Don't buy cotton seed," he
urged, unless it is from a reliable
source and of a variety recommend
ed for your farm"
