Take a year s crop or cotton. The spinners spin 1t and the world con
sumes it in twelve months. Yet the farmers have had to sell that cropm four.
Who wins? The speculator.
Who loses? The farmer.
Put the cotton grower mn position to sell his cotton when he wants to,
and he gets his full share under “supply and demand.’
That's the natural law that regulates the price of wheat. The size of the
grain crop, divided by the appetite of mankind, gives the value in dollars. Doesn’t
matter that wheat in storage must be guarded against bugs and bacteria, as well
as againsf fire and weather. That's done. The wheat grower gets what he’s
earned.
Why isn’t that true of cotton? The bale hasn’t an enemy except weather and fire.
It isn’t perishable. It won’t spoil in good storage. Yet every year the price of cotton has
gone down in the ¢all—and gone up in the spring AFTER IT WAS OUT OF THE GROW
ER’S HANDS.
Why can’t the price of cotton be stabilized like wheat’'s?
IT CAN.
The only necessity is to fix things so you can borrow on your cotton and not have to
throw it on the market for whatever you can get. That’s where the wheat farmer has the
advantage. in order for you to be equally independent, you must have storage facilities
like the wheat elevators in the grain country. Ihat storage must be safe, cheap, respon~
sible. It must be covered by a receipt that tells the vital facts. Because in that receipt you

Then you can carry your cotton. Then a year's crop, destined to be used in
twelve months, can be marketed as it's called for.

We've got that kina of storage giving that kind of receipt, right here in
Atlanta. Our warehouses are proof against fire and weather, our rates are
low, we are responsible; and the receipt we give you 1s negotiable.

CAPT. B, F. MARKETT, OF
SUMTER COUNTY, IS DEAD
Gallant Ex-Confederate Soldier Pass
ed Away Monday Night,
Captain B. F. Markett, an aged and
esteemed resident of Sumter and one
of the best known men of the county,
passed away Monday morning at his
country residence, eight miles west of
the city. Capt. Markett was probably
75 years of age, and he had been in
declining health for some time.
He was a valiant soldier of the
south during the war between the
states! a man of highest honor and
integrity and worthy citizen withal.
Captain Markett is survived by his
wife and several sons and daughters,
besides a large number of relatives re
siding in Sumter and neighboring
counties. He was a member of the
Primitive Baptist church and the fun
eral services Tuesday will probably
be held at Providence church, near
his home.—Americus Tintes-Record
er.
Captain Markett was the father of
Mr. Angus Markett, of this city,
whose friends deeply sympatliize with
him in his loss.
Observe the Warning.
A cold that promises to ‘““hang on
all winter’” is to be dreaded. Prompt
action should be taken at the first
warning of a cold—sneezing, chilli
ness, slight shivering. Foley's Hon
ev and Tar makes quick work of
coughs, colds and croup. It clears
air passdges, stops coughing, eases
difficult breathing. Dawson Drug
