TESTING C(^ON SEED FOR
GERMiNATlON
It is always best to have cotton
seed tested for germination before
planting. By doing this farmers will
not run the risk of planting reed
that will not germinate. Any fann
er can bring a small sample to the
county agent’s office and he will
send it to the office of J. Roy Jones,
commissioner of agriculture, and
they will be tested for germination
free of charge.
