We take pleasure in announcing to our
patrons in the city and in the adj lining
parishc that we have doubled our storage
IN order to meet the increased cotton
business Of this place. Our large ware
houses are built with care; of the best
materials. and are under the supervision
Of our insurance friends; hence We arc
enabled to state that very low rate
(instead Of to per cont. ut the gin) Is
charged on cotton stored with %.
To that add
First-The low rate Of storage We ofer
you, 20 cents per bale tho first month.
Ten cents per bale for each succeeding
month.
Next-The facility Of borrowing money
on cotton stored in our press from the
Rapides Bank at n liberal rate of interest.
And We conclude thst our planting and
mercart tile friends will hnd it cheaper
and safer to store their cotfons with us
than to keep them 1t the gins or 1t the
stores.
