profit and we cannot see how any
one can object to the producer re-

Someone may ask the question,
"Can the cotton be financed?" My

the producer would much rather have
his note secured by warehouse re-
ceipt than the producers not secured
by crop mortgage.
Speaking for everyone. the farm

Be OBSERVED HERE
Prominent Speakers to Address Citizens
at Jefferson Auditorium To-
morrow Night.

Tomorrow is constitution day It Is
the anniversary OF the day on which
the federal convention adopted the
constitution OF the United States.
There Is a nation wide movement to

ings at which attention will be called
to the fundamental principles OF our
government. The governor of Virgin
la has issued a proclamation in which

the state to commemorate this event
by suitable exercises.
In Richmond a program has been
arranged under the auspices OF the

citation, and the City Bar association:
all of which are interested in the
