who has learned by guess.
1t is an undeniable fact, every
young man of the south land should
know the classification, preservation
and handling of cotton. 1t is our lead
ing product and always will be. The
worlds production is about sixteen
million bales annually. Texas, Okla
homa, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisl-
ana and Georgia supply eighty-five
per cent of the total. More money is
lost each year by the farmer on the
marketing of this product than all
other crops combined. The man rails
ing it knows nothing about market
ing it, and is therefore wholly at the
mercy of the man doing the buying
Some buyers will grade your cotton
Strict Low Middiing, and pay you ac-
cordingly, when in reality, the cot
ton offered for sale is middling, and
Won are entitled to the difference in
price. which is no small amount. Can
Won see the necessity of knowing how
to grade your own cotton? In four
weeks time, we can prepare you to
save in one year more than double
the cost of your learning, which is
only $25,
The question has been asked, "How
do YOU teach cotton CHASING so sue
cessfully?" This has but one answer,
but one meaning. We believe the time
has come when the south land needs
70 know more about marketing the
crop which she labOrs so earnestly to
produce; and which means meat,
bread and clothing to his family. To
this end, we have equipped our de-
partment that efficient teachlng may
be done. Our teachers understand
CHASING, buying and selling from a
practical standpoint, and are expert
IN the training of students. Our head
teacher of this department at Wash
morton which lends much to his
strength. We have cotton exchange
board, with telegraph instruments at

Bilious Attacks.

When you have a bilious attack
YOUR liver fails to perform its func-

food you eat ferments in your stom-

Take Chamberlain's tablets. They
will tone up your liver, clean out your

is THERE An OPPORTuNITY?

There is an opportunity for young

in the soath, there is raised from
twelve to fourteen million bales Of
cotton annually. Every bale has to
be classed from one to four times,
seldom by the same man twice. I'm
til the last two years, there has been
no training schools along this line,
consequently the supply Of men for
this work is necessarily limited. The
facts are we lose thousands of dol
lars each year for lack Of trained men.
Again there are being erected in this
country thousands of warehouses, and
every warehouse requires from two
to three men to grade cotton The
