Reported from Sumter County, S. C. A small-boll, short-staple variety yielding alK)ut 34 i)er cent of lint. Not tested. Imperial Big-Boll. Tested by the Louisiana station at Baton Rouge in 1907. Classifiratinn uncertain, as the bolls are too small to be included in the big-boll group. Bolls per pound, 81; seeds per pound, 3,870; average length of lint, mm. (II inch), varying from 20 to 27 mm.; per cent of lint, Irene. Reported from East Feliciana Parish, La.

It is rarely seen now in a pure state and is grown much than formerly. Like other cluster cottons, Jackson is very prolific on rich soils where long-limb varieties are too "weedy "' in growth.
