He’s Laying By
When you ship your cotton to our warehouse, you’re laying by what
you pay the railroad to haul it here.
Picking time comes later. You get that freight back when you sell. It s
added to the price of your cotton. And the buyer comes out even, for the rail
road counts that local freight as part payment of the through freight from where
you loaded to where he unloads—just like the cotton never had stopped here.
That’s what the railroads call “concentration privilege. They ve granted
it in our case. It helps you, helps us, and helps them and the buyer.
It’s a big advantage all around.
AND THAT’S NOT ALL YOU LAY BY when you ship your cotton to our ware
house.
Because the receipt we issue is definite, responsible, negotiable, you can borrow
money with it close up under the value of the cotton. We help you to borrow, without
commission, at low interest.
And you can sell to good advantage, when your cotton’s with us.
The profitable sale of cotton calls for expert knowledge of when, where, and how
to sell. WE’VE GOT THAT. The service of our organization and experience are yours
—FOR NOTHING, if your cotton’s paid as much as two months storage. You don’t pay
us or anybody else one cent of commission.
Your cotton on the market Here is between two demands—foreign and domestic.
It can go to ports or interior with equal ease. One way or the other, it’s bound to go,
quick. Competition between two demands helps any price.
The buyers are here because our warehouse holds 250,000 bales; and that’s plenty
of cotton to interest them. We’re even building offices for them, at one comer of our
plant
Thirty mills within 40 miles of our warehouse use a lot of cotton. They, can get it
from us, on credit, at low interest, and not take it out till they’re ready to use it. #
The loan money’s here. The market’s here. But that’s not all.
You get compressing that mashes cotton to the density of oak wood, caving
about $ 1 a bale in ocean freight and adding about a quarter of a cent a pound to
your price. You get complete protection from fire, at lowest rates. You get hand
ling, storage, insurance, at lowest charges. \
You can sleep o’ nights, when your cotton’s with us!

“We have never had any other medi
cine but Peruna in our home since we
have been married. I suffered with
kidney and bladder trouble, but two
months treatment with Peruna made
me a well and strong man. My wife
felt weak and was easily tired and
was also troubled with various pains,
but since she took Peruna she is well
and strong."

The first offender to come to his
notice was councilman Elbert
Parr, who violated the city ordin
ance by using dangerous fire arms
on the streets of Locust Grove.
Councilman Parr was shooting at
English sparrows, and on being
brought before Mayor Pitts, was
promptly fined one dollar, and
was reprimanded for the offense,
being told that in the event of an
other violation of a similar nature
the penalty would be greater.
