No Substitutes
For Jobs
In the eight principal cotton-growing states of the
Southeast the average amount of tillable land per per-
son on farms is seven acres. In the corn state of IlllnoU
lt is 25 acres; in the corn, wheat, and livestock state of
Kansas 45 acres. Though largely without the aid of
capita] equipment, cotton nevertheless supf>orts three
times as many persons per acre as any of the nation's
other major crops grown on Weld scale.
This is one very goed reason why there can be no sa-
tisfactory substitute for cotton In our individual every-
day purchases. As consumers granted by American
democracy the free choice of how to spend our dollars,
we have the democratic opportunity to buy the pro-
duct which provides nearly three million American
jobs. P-cklng cotton in our own personal purchases Li

stitute materials.

Do You Want a Real
Piano Bargain?
I have a beautiful small size spinet piano in your vicinity
which 1 will sell at a real sacrifice rather than haul it
back to Corpus Christi. You may pay the balance on
convenient terms, but you must, act quickly. This is your
chance to save money- New pianos are rapidly advanc-
ing in price so why not write me for full particulars on
this bargain- I mean business if you do- No obligation,
write, phone, or wire. I will send full particulars and
where piano may be seen.
