HR TAXON COTTON
Important Information Need
ed liy Cotton Dealers.
QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Throwing Light on a Most
Timely Subject.
« "I
It is not generally known per
haps that the war stamp act
covers cotton receipts, or at
least a certain class of them.
The following, however, which
is taken from the Selma Times,
will throw much light on the
subject and should be read by
all cotton dealers:
“The law which requires ev
«ry receipt to be stamped with a
twenty five cents internal reve
nue stamp, has given cotton
warehousemen in this city great
concern on account of the many
conflicting opinions as to who
was required to pay the tax,
whether pioducer, merchant nr
broker.
“Mr. Henry W. Parish, of
this city, therefore went to
U ashington with a set of pre
pared questions, which are given
below, as well as the answer by
Gen. Samuel Butterfield, head
of the Internal Revenue Depart
ment. The questions and an
swers are very plain and are of
decided interest to all of the
people who handle cotton.
“When, a tenant rents land for
a cotton rental delivered in bales
at Warehouse, does such receipt
require a stamp? No; 25 cents
not required.
“If cotton mortgaged by the
producer to the factor is con
signed to factor to be sold, w »re
house receipts being issued ii
Jeonsignee’s name; but designa
ing the consignor, does ware
house receipts for such cotton
require a stamp? No; if cotton is
merely mortgaged and remains
the property of the producer, 25
cents not required.
“Or, if producer is not in
debted but consigns his crop to
factor for sale, warehouse ie
ceipts being in same manner as
mentioned above, does such re
ceipts require a stamp? No ; 25
cent stamp not required.
“If producer delivers cotton,
to merchant in the interior for j
payment of debt, and the mer
chant ships such cottm to ware
house in his own name, does
such receipt require a stamp?
Yes ; 25 cents stamp required.
“Or, if producer, without be
ing indebted, sells his cotton
straightout for cash to country
merchant, he then shipping it
to warehouse, does such receipt
require a stamp? especially
when considering in connectio i
witn the fact mentioned in facts
Nos. 5 and 6? Yes; 25 cent
stamp required.
.i‘of cotton previously stored
at a warehouse is removed there
form by buyers and delivered to |
a compress for temporary stor- ■
age, to be eventually compressed
for shipment, does such receipt
' by compress company revuire a
stamp? —such receipts usually
designate any number of bales
on one blank. Yes ; 25 cent.
I for each receipt, no matter how j
■ many bales are designated there-.

Poisoned by Ivy
Was in a Dreadful Condition
Happened to Read About a Similar
Case Followed the Other Man’s
Example and Was Cured.
The following incident is given by
Charles Morris, general jobber, 52 Lexing
ton Avenue, North Cambridge, Mass.:
“Several years ago I became poisoned
by ivy. I tried many medicines, spending
* large sura of money without obtaining
i particle of good. My children were
ilso afflicted with the same disease. We
■■. ere all constant sufferers with an awful
ehing sensation, and it seemed as if I
hould tear myself to pieces. I picked
i pa paper in which I found printer’ a
i estiinonial from a man in Vermont, who
:ad been similarly afflicted and h. ' taken
I food’s Sarsaparilla with benefit. 1 bought
| bottle, which we took and it did
Mg .’.nd My Children
■o much good I purchased another supply.
Ve continued taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla
ntil we used five bottles and I can
ifely say that neither myself nor children
■ave any signs of the poison. It has en
irely left us and we are perfectly cured.
Ve give the whole credit to Hood’s Barsa
arilla. Before resorting to this medicine
was reduced in weight, but now I
.eigh 175 pounds. Hood’s Sarsaparilla
.as not only done much good but has
been the means of saving me a great deal
□f money. I would not be without it
In my house and I heartily recommend
It to all who are afflicted. I have writ
ten this statement for publication, of my
own will, as I want others to know what
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
i has done for us.” Chahi.es Morris.
