Advantages of Having a Grader.


Cotton farmers ought to be bene-
fitted wonderfully if they patronize
the grader. After this official makes
a report on their cotton, they are
then n possession Of the same mar
kct information which tie buyer has.
Thus they can know definitely what
their cotton IS worth Oil the market.
On the other hand, the grader IS not
here to antagonize the buyers. His
knowledge and unprecedented position
should be beneficial to buyer and
seller alike.
Mr. Britt can help only the farm
ers who cooperate and give him their
business. It is important, therefore,
that 70 cotton be sold or warchoused
before II is graded.
Manv farmers will want to borrow
money on their cotton this year. II
they carry their grading receipt and
warehouse certificate TO the bank, the
banker can tell from the grading re-
ceipt and the market report exactly
how much the cotton is worth on that
day, and thus will know how much
money he can lend upon each bale.
