consequently there is no watered stock.
Every holder Of stock from the President
down must pay at LEAST $1,000 per share for
every share of stock allotted to him.
This does not mean that the price Of stock
will REMAIN at $1,000 per share. 1t is $1,000
NOW 1t will advance in price far beyond
$1,000, just as railroad and public utility stock
goes to several times par. So will the Lincoln
Memorial Building Companys stock go to
several times its present value.
This means that a share of stock costing
$1,000 NOW will be worth $4,000 when stock
goes to four times par. Estimates show that
the Companys earnings will be 20 per cent, and
that is four times par, with every dollar in
vested in Real Estate. THE BEST in the city
OF Washington, where values are as firmly hxed
as the Rock of Gibraltar.
This does not mean that the price OF stock
will remain at $1,000 per share. 1t is $1,000
NOW. If the Company, as il is estimated,
pays 20 per cent, $1,000 sha, of stock will be
worth $4,000. If it pays 40 per cent single
share of $1,000 stock will be worth $1,000. Just
railroads and public utility stocks increase
in value so will the Lincoln Memorial Bald

The first allotment of stock at $1,000 a share

it will soon be advanced; therefore, you are

Negro is admitted.
THERE IS NOT A SINGLE FIRST

dreds of them in the National Capital, can OBJ

and necessity for the early destruction
OF the stalks is greatly increased In

be true or not burning the stalks is

Some Essential Steps.

e The following essential steps in
making cotton in spite OF the boil wee
vii embody the main features of the
Cultural Methods worked out in Louis
lana and Texas, with some slight mod
lfications to meet Mississippi condi
lions. Despite the bad season and
millions of weevils, these methods
have been an unqualified success this
year in Southwest Mississippi, and

tory can practice them with the as
surance of profitable crop of cotton
These essential steps are as follows:
/. Reduce your acreage. Where a
family has planted ~ or IA acres in
cotton let them plant 6 or 8. This
must be done to keep the cotton per-
rtctly clean, we'll worked, and in
growing condition. Boil weevils will
eat up your cotton if it gets grassy.
Remember this.
2. Plant your thinner uplands-
lands that will make cotton quickly
A rich, rank-growing Late bottom land
is no place for cotton with the boil
weevil. 1t will not make the seed YOU
plant on it. These lands should be in
corn, anyway. Even on your warm
uplands it is best not to plant cotton
where the stalk will grow over 8 -
or 4 feet high. Be sure to give plenty
of distance. Air and hot sunshine are
fatal to the weevil
3. Burn every, cotton stalk on youl
place before October 18th. Exper
fence has proven this to be by far the
most important factor in controlling
the weevil. II you do not know the
reasons for this get state and United
States Bulletins and learn them. You
can destroy your stalks for so cents
an acre, and by so doing you are in
surfing your cotton crop. If you do moi
destroy your stalks you may make
some cotton, but the chances are that
you may not. Burn every cotton stalk
by October 18th.
4. Make fine mellow seed bed for
your cotton by preparing your land
well. If this is done your cotton will
get off in a hurry in the spring. Cot.
ton cannot come up and grow off well
In mass of clods. Break well and

made fair crops without putting all
of these recommendation into prac-
