SPECIAL NOTICE .COTTON AT 12c
You are holding your cotton Mr Farmer because if sold at the present low price it will not supply the needs of yourself and family but if you
could sell it at i2c per yound you could buy your necessities and still have a nice little sum to enlarge your bank account. Now let's sit down and
reason together. In the present crisis no cotton buyer will offer you more than 7 cents for your cotton.
S WW f'ff& F S6o00 wortn Rd clean high grade dependable merchandise for less than 65 per ct of their value and take in exchange
JUm Jm mSR your cotton at 74-c per pound (middling basis) which is equal to 12c for cotton when you have to pay 100 cents on the
dollar for your purchases.
Problem: It would require 100 poundi of lint cotton at 12 cents to pay for a man's suit valued at S12.00. If bought at our bankrupt sale price $7.45
requires 100 pounds of lint cotton at cents per pound; so you can readily see the grand opportunity we offer you in this the grandest merchan-
dise carnival ever held in the West. Read every line of this ad. We will do just as we advertise. If the present price of cotton advances we
will always allow you more than market value Read Think Come.
