I have two plants growing in my garden, but I suggest that it may be of much importance to procure a quantity of the seed from Malwa, for the Cotton Experiment-farm, with some of the soil it is grown upon, and some of these of the best spots for cotton about the Cotton Experiment stations. By comparative analysis of these, we shall be certain that if it does not succeed, it will be owing to climate, and we shall go to work safely as far as soil is concerned. ─ Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal (1841)
