Investment each year. Two years ago,
Nlr. Horton wishing to own his own
business, made the stockholders a pro-
position to buy the agency, and while
the company knew they would miss
their annual dividends, they realized
that ed Horton had made the company
what 1t was, and they were willing for
nm to enjoy the benefits of his labors.

he was often called by large fire com

100000 BALES OF
COTTON WANTED
Columbia, Jan. 16. 1920,
Mr.. W.. G. Davis,

MY Dear Sir
We have an offer for 100000 bales
of low grade cotton to be exported.
Foreign mill representatives are
now in this country and are awaiting
our action. We are asking for an
option on this cotton good until Feb
ruary 10, under following conditions
and terms
Low middling cotton 41 cents per
pound.
Strict good ordinary cotton 80 cents
per pound.
Good ordinary cotton 81 cents per
pound.
Ordinary cotton 35 cents per pound.
Ihese prices are net to the seller,
I. O.. b. his shipping point. Cotton
weighed and graded at shipping point.
The terms of sale are eighty per
cent cash upon delivery; twenty per
cent deferred payments, said defer
red payments bearing interest at six
per cent and secured by a syndicate
of foreign banks, and guaranteed by
their government. All securities are
to be examined and approved before
any cotton is delivered
These foreign mills through their
representatives recognize that thew
are asking for something unusual in
requiring an option on this cotton.
also in asking for twenty per cent
deferred payments, and in considera-
ton OF this they are willing to pay a
price substantially above the price
for cotton as compared to the ruling
prices on the open market.
The officers of the American Cotton
Association realize that in deal of
this magnitude and on account of the
unusual world conditions, it is very
necessary to give these foreign mills
the options sought to enable them to
perfect their arrangements for hand
ling a deal of this nature.
The mills to which this cotton goes
have been idle for years, and this ar
rangement, if the holders of cotton
back it. up, will start these mills to
consuming cotton and relieve our mar
ket of low grade cotton.
AS soon as options sufficient are in
hand, we will begin to receive and
ship cotton. All options, with ware
house receipt ATTACHED, or the equivu-
lent thereto, should be deposited at a
local bank VIII ch is authorized to de-
liver this cotton to the order of i S.
Wannamaker, President American
Cotton Association, ONLY after the
terms of the option have been fully
complied with. The form of option
will be forwarded to you as soon as
it is received from lawyers represent
in gthc buyers.
|, therefore, urge you to see in per-
son the owners of low grade cotton
and call meeting for TX xt Saturday,
January oath. at your county seat,
urging all holders Of cotton to be pre-
sent and pledge every bale of low
grade cotton in your county for this
export shipment. Call their attention
to the fact That 80 per cent of our
prices equals the price now being
paid .or such cotton at interior points.
If anything stands in the way of
your carrying out this program, please
advise us and do your best to arrange
TO have a substantial citizen in your
county to act in your place.
Honing that you will give this mat
ter your prompt attention, I am,
Yours very truly
r. M. Mixson
President South Carolina Division
American Cotton Association.
