Abstract
The weight percent and absolute weight of wax in lint during the growing process of cotton fiber were daily measured in order to make clear the distribution of wax in cotton fiber. From this series of experiments, it may be concluded that the wax is the surface constituents of cotton fiber and exists only in the primary wall of the cotton fiber and can not be found in any appreciable amount in the inner structure i.e. the secondary wall of cotton fiber.
