Our plan to have another chance
at our cotton about getting a better
price next spring. If your creditor
has to have his money this fall go
to him and tell him to go your se
curity at the bank for the money,
and you will put the cotton up for
2ollateral for six months or twelve,
months, and case cotton should ad
vance you would make big divi
dends your time merchant would be
in position to go on with his busi-
NESs.
If there is any possible chance
keep your cotton until planting
time. You would then be in a posi
tion to know what to do about an
other crop. A word to the wise is
sufficient.
