STOCK.
The Lone Star Cotton Picker
A SAFE INVESTMENT.

It's seldom that opportunities are offered
for investments that are certain to pay very
large dividends without danger of loss.
But such opportunities occur, as in the case
of The Lone Star Cotton Picking Company.
Here every fact can be known-the number
Of bales of cotton produced, the cost of
picking by hand per bale, and the total
cost. These facts can be learned in an hour
by any intelligent person who will take the
trouble to examine the statistics, easily
accessible and recognized as authority by
the entire commercial world. It is just as
easy to learn that the Lone Star Cotton
Picker has been performing this labor for
two years past at a saving Of fully so per
cent. over hand work, and that if machines
enough to pick the entire crop could be
furnished, the saving would exceed
$50, 000,000 annually. To build these
machines money is needed, and stock is
offered for sale to raise it. You can arrange
to share in this enormous saving by pur-
chasing o single share of the Lone Star
Cotton Picking Company. 4 single ma
chine, costing less than one hundred dollars,
running fifty days and picking two bales
per day. will save the planter using it more
than $1,000 each season. An equitable
division Of this is anticipated. The par
value of the shares is ten dollars. The
purchaser of ten shares will thus furnish
the means to build one machine, which
should earn the company about $500.00 per
year. There is demand for $4,000 ma
chimes to harvest the present crop, and the
ratio Of increase each year is large, and
will be larger as machines for gathering arc
supplied. The figures are startling and the
statements facts. The person who investi-
gates will be convinced that such an oppor-
tunity for safe investment seldom probably
never has occurred in the history of the
world
Single shares will be sold or blocks of
any size. The machines is shown and its
operations explained at 81 Milk Street,
where ali are invited, whether investors
Or not.
