DRAPER
CORPORATION

We desire to call to your attention
the stock of the Draper Corporation
as a conservative investment.
The plant Of the Draper Corpora
ton at Hopedale. Mass, CONTAINING
some AZ acres OF floor space is devoted
principally to the production Of The
Northrop Loom. Through patents
on this Loom the company is pro.
tected for years to come IT is worth
nothing that the repair work alone
is probably more than sufficient &c
pay the present rate of dividend. The
company has a years supply of Goa
on hand and has been given priority
on steel as its product is extremely
essential. They are booked at capac.
ity for a year at present prices and
the contracts include non-cancella-
ton clauses
Capital stock $17,500,00O no bonds
or preferred stock.
The average net earnings for 1915,
1916 and 1917 after all depreciation
on plant and after marking 100000
off the patent account were more
than 1870 on the present capitaliza-
ton.
At the present time they own $4,-
100000 Liberty Bonds, tS75O,000.
United Kingdom Bonds and $250,000
other high grade first mortgage
bonds They also have 100000
set aside in a special fund which
will be invested in the next Govern
ment Loan. The company has been
in business for great many years and
furnishes approximately 5000 of all
Looms used in cotton mills. The
management is of the highest type
and very aggressive. The stock is
essentially a peace stock and it
seems very reasonable to expect that
it will have an advance of 90 to- 80
points within a reasonable time and
in view of its present condition and
the future outlook it is generally ex-
peCted that in the not distant future
some extra distribution will be made.
On October "a, 1918, the company
had liquid assets exceeding 10000
600. Total indebtedness payable
October "a, 1918 about $3.50, 900.
Dividends are being paid at the
rate of $50 per annum, January 1st,
