The ROUNDLAP BALE
AN lRRESIS TIBLE DEMAND EXISTS FOR
COTTON PACKED IN THE NEW WAY.
Some Facts About The Methods of the American
Cotton Company and It's Campaign.
Profits in The New Method
of BaIing,

The South is still conservative, but IT
is no longer SLOW 1t is sharing in the
wonderful prosperity Of the rest Of the
country. 1t is passing through reyou-
ton that is giving new life and vigor to
every branch Of the cotton industry, ex-
cepting those members which have been
hurtful. instead of helpful to it's pros
perity. 1t is simplifying. strengthening
and using a new economy in the packing
and handling Of the staple. The Round
zap method of baIing cotton is growing
rapidly in favor, adding to the prospect
ty of the planter. whether he raises two
bales or two hundred, and giving the gin
owner an opportunity to double the earn
ing capacity of his plant without increas-
ing his investment.
The opposition to The Roundlap bale on
the part of the compress owners and the
nriddlemen, whose business has been a
burdensome tax on the cotton planter
has not prevented the steady introduce
ton of the machinery for making the
Roundlap bale. and the satisfaction of
the farmer. the ginner AMI the mill own
err. The attacks on the american Cotton
Company. owners of the Roundlap hal
ing machine. have been litter and un-
scrupulous. They have been accused Of
attempting to gain monopoly, of using
trust methods. but gradually the facts
are gaining Roadway that the American
Cotton Company is only one of three
concerns engaged in making round bal
ing presses. and that it can not enjoy
any monopoly.
Then, again. objection is made TO the
policy adopted by the company of leasing
its machinery to the gin owner instei Of
selling it. The lease is. in effect roy
atty, the amount of the rental being
based on the amount of cotton baled in
the press thus maxim. the profit ard
