POWDER SPRINGS CREAM
ROUTE IS GREAT SUCCESS
The Powder springs cream route
which was organized in July to mar
ket the surplus cream for the far
mers has proven a success. The far
mers received during August 25¢ a
pound for their butterfat after the
expenses were deducted. Butter sold
locally for 15 to 20 cents a pound
during the same time.--As every one
knows August is a bad time to keep
cream in "good condition and the
price will be better for the cream
shipped in September.
The farmers received $98.40 cash
for their cream in August. Notice
we say they received this amount
in cash. Any one who has ever done
a credit business knows that the
“time price,” as it is called, is usual
lv one fourth to one half higher
than the ‘‘cash price.” In other
words $98.40 would buy as much
food and clothing as you would get
on time for $125 to $l4O. Every
thinking farmer knows he can’t ex
pect to save any money until he is
in position to pay cash for what
he buys. No business man would
expect to be successful if he bor
rowed money at 129% to 159% inter
est. llsn’t it folly for the farmer to
expect to succeed when he pays the
merchant 257% to 409% on his ‘time’
purchases? The cream route gives
you cash each month. It makes you}
independent, |
On the other hand the cream
route is helpful to the merchant for
’instoad of a farmer buying $l5O to
$2OO worth of goods ‘on time’ he will
{iz‘ he has the money, spend $5OO
- with the merchant to give his fam
"ll,\' the necessities and comforts of
)lii’v which they deserve. The mer
chant gets cash for his goods and can
“turn’”” his money several times a
year. This makes it possible for
him to reduce his percentage of
profit on each sale and still make as
much or more money than when he
sold on time.
A few good cows fed on home
grown feed furnishing a cash in
come each month is also excellent
boll weevil insurance.

Hold Till You're Ready—
If you need money and don't want to sell what you
own, you ve got to borrow. Maybe that means a mort
gage, and big commissions for the loan, and the whole
transaction on public record at the courthouse.
That might be good business in case of necessity; but
what would be the common sense of mortgaging your
farm IN ORDER to sell your cotton for whatever you can
get right then?
Why not hold the farm AND BORROW ON THE
COTTON? Why not warehouse the cotton and borrow
on it at low interest, with no commissions to pay and no
record at the courthouse?
Many a man around in these parts last fall saw the foolishness
of selling his cotton and going poor. They warehoused it WITH
US, and on our receipt as security they borrowed money close up
under the market. And they HELD that cotton till the market
offered ’em their price.
Cotton is one of the best securities on earth. It hasn't
got an enemy except fire and weather. But in order for
you to borrow money on it, it's GOT to be in responsible
hands, safely stored, fully insured, and it's got to be
covered by a receipt that is NEGOTIABLE.
Without that kind of receipt for security, you don’t find ready
loans at reasonable interest—or sometimes any loans at all at
ANY rate.
Back of the detailed regeipt we give for cotton stored with us
are our equipment, facilities, methods—and FULL responsibility.
We've got room for a quarter of a million bales and then some!
And our guarantee is good beyond the limit.
Store your cotton with us, borrow on our receipt,
and you’ll be laughing at mortgages.
We'll be mighty glad to serve you exceptionally
well for exceptionally little.
