you pick your cotton
You can't get money for your cotton crop until you
pick it and if you want to get the most money for the
cotton voH've picked, pick your gin, too.
I f you are a good gin picker, you'll pick a Murray, be-
cause it means more money for your cotton crop. The
M Li n ay means a bigger turnout and a better sample.
You make more money because you have more pounds
of lint and get more for each pound of lint that you have
to sell.
G. Mont Adams, the man who won over $2,500 in pri-
zes in the Texas Cotton Contest last year, had his cotton
Manned on a Murray and won first prize both for
pounds per acre and quality of staple. Also, eight of the
•hirteen prizes went to farmers who had their cotton
ginned on Murrays. Isn't that proof enough?
The Murray is the most modern and scientific gin ever
built -and it has been designed and built to clean the
seed, preserve the staple and deliver a good sample. It
floes!

Having It Ginned On a
