Excerpt from Foreign and United States Upland Cotton, Quality Comparisons and Evaluations, 1955 CropThe property group and overall quality indexes for each grade and staple length of United States and foreign cotton for which comparisons were made are shown in tables 1 through 12. Also shown in these tables for each grade and fiber property are the weight factors assigned, the original test data, the degree of perfection index (measure of the property's value in terms of a hypothetical superior cotton), and the weighted quality points. The weighted quality points were obtained by multiplying the weight factor by the degree of perfection index. The weighted quality points were then divided by the sum of the weight factors to obtain the quality indexes.An explanation of the procedure used in establishing values for the properties of the superior cotton for the sample lots tested and compared, and in the development of the quality indexes, is included in the sections beginning on page 18.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
