- Drake's Eye Or Redspot Cotton
- DRAKE'S EYE OR REDSPOT COTTONA term to distinguish cotton staples of good white colour that show here and there a dark red spot of colouring in the samples. The stain may be due to the work of some insect, but hardly due to the plant's development, though there is doubt surrounding its origin. At times it is sought after and readily bought.
