COTTON BUYERS
Why take the risk of lower markets
when you buy cotton? Hedge your pur
.chases with us. Make a legitimate mer^
chant's profit, avoid losses and keep yotfr
credit good at the bank. /
Then you buy cotton, sell short an
equivalent amount, then if the market
goes down, you make on your short sales
what you lose on your spot purchases. If
the market goes up, you make on your
spot purchases, what you lose on your
short sales so that in either case you have
a buyers' profit without risk to yourself.
We can handle your hedge business
in lots of ten balesfj^cr^^
