I Where poverty has stalked hartd in hand with illiteracy, nth poor churches, poor roads,.poor farm conditions, liserable huts, women working in the fields?there proserity is coming with its magic wand of betterment. \\ The American Cotton. Association is the wizard to ring these better days. r = 5 Working alone, the cotton growers have been for fifty ears in a state of agricultural slavery. Banded together 'ith bankers and merchants in the American cotton Asociation, they will emancipate themselves and will enrich he South and the Nation. By growing a.smaller acreage of better staple; by bet?r baling; by holding the crop in warehouses for profitble prices; by marketing slowly instead of dumping the rop on the market suddenly; by dirert selling to spiners?by these means the cotton growers will come into hir deserved prosperity. n / I; t The bank welcomes the day when cotton shall be free nd every cotton farmer shall be prosperous. The South has found the truth. Its prosperity for the uture is assui-ed. You will profit. The Nation will prot. And this bank hopes to share that prosperity. PLANTERS BANK The Progressive Bank.
