The circles in the picture above illustrate the difference seed treating may make. Treated seed and seedlings are less apt to euffer from seed decay, damping-off or sore-shin. _ t The small cost of treating is unimportant when compared with tha expense of soil preparation, fertilizers, labor and equipment needed to produce a good crop. Less than 10c per acre spent for seed protection can often mean many dollars profit when the crop is brought to tha gin. For information about treating your seed and th$ name of the cotton eeed treater nearest you consult your county agricultural agent.?
