NEW METHOD OF
COTTON FINANCING
Farmers have found this season that
an expert classing of their cotton is
often worth to them from $1J>Q to $4,00
a bale fn excess of the price they are
able to secure from casual buyers
without classing. This discovery has
been made through the operation of
the Cotton Certificating and Inspection
Company, of Atlanta, a new company
and a new aplication of scientific prin,
ciples to the sale of, and borrowing
on cotton by farmers.
The company began operations in
the fall of this year, and is composed
of Frank M. Inman, president; J. J.
Williamson, vice president, and Haynes
McFudden, treasurer. Its purposes
are to weigh, class, seal and certificate
cotton In warehouses. The certificates
are readily acceptable in banks as col¬
lateral for loans, and are given prefer
ence over open warehouse receipts, as
under this plan each bale bears a fire¬
proof seal and serial number corro
s ponding to the numerals In the cer¬
tificate Issued against it. The latter
sets forth also the market value of
the cotton so many points on ,or off
middling, on the day of Inspection.
Besides furnishing a definite basis
for collateral, the sealing of the cot
ton is invaluable to Insurance compa
nies, which for the first time are of
fered absolute identification for burned
cotton, not only the number of bales
in any lot inspected, but the particulai
number and grade of each bale de
stroyed. firs,
As a matter of fact, it was
thought that the plan of inspection
and certification would appeal mainlj
to banks, and insurance companies, but
when the company started to operate
it became apparent at once that the
service would possess to the farmer
a greater value, if anything, than tc
the other interests. Farmers owning
cotton cates are covered in a position by to secure lfam loan
from local and large city banks at the
lowest available interest rates, with
out the expense of paying freight am
hlgU ««. charges .0 the large co»
centrating centers, also to offer buy
ers so many bales of definite we g it
and which will grade a certain num¬
ber of points on or off middling. As
the grade is established by the best
classers in the cotton belt, there is ni
argument about the price basis. On
the other hand, it has been the expe
rience of farmers that they have been
protected on price by means of tht
certification to the extent of from
twice to five times its cost. Though
the company has been operating on \
short time, it has already handled
a the enUre
several thousand bales to
satisfaction to both banks, and cotton
iwner.i. thus proving the pracilcabii
itv of the nlan. ._

DON’T GIVE AWAY YOUR CORN
Corn at 40 cents per bushel is entire¬
ly to cheap. Newton county is short of
hog meat now and if we fail to feed
our surplus oorn to the hogs we are
practicing a plan that will mean star¬
vation soon if we all follow- it. Govern¬
ment tests at practically all of the
leading experiment farms have proven
that corn and 60 per cent meat tank¬
age will give you a rate of gain per
pound of. meat so that at 8 cents per
pound for hogs on foot you get $1 per
bushel for your corn on the farm. You
get the added value of the manure free.
There is a big demand here in Cov¬
ington now for fat hogs. Breed all the
sows to good males and raise the pigs
for market. Make your corn market
come to the farm, .
I have buyers for corn, peas and milk
cows that are fresh and giving around
two gallons of milk.
See me for market on these products s
