You should not fail To The Cotton Farmer: THE BALE THAT SELLS HIGHER A Mecklenburg farmer selling a part of his 1925 crop yesterday received $5 a bale over the market, because he had grown pure-bred cotton and had a uniform staple of good quality. This farmer plants noth ing but pure-bred seed of any crop, and the. seed, in addition, must be recleaned and graded to assure that every plant shall be strong and vigorous. This applies to cot ton, corn, wheat, oats, rye and other crops. Everyone today appreciates the superior ity of pure-bred livestock over scrub stock, but appreciation of the greater value _ of pure-bred seeds for'crops is just beginning to dawn. Experts have estimated that the value of North Carolina's farm crops would be increased between 20 and 30 per cent by the use of pure-bred, selected and graded seeds. 4 'Field selected seed corn is easily worth 810 per bushel, as com pared to crib selected corn at regular prices. Cottonseed of the right variety, cleaned and graded, are worth S5 to SlO per bushel, as compared with ordinary seed at 50 cents per bushel, and almost the same ratio holds good' for several other crops," declared this progressive farmer. —Charlotte Observer.
