Make Augusta Your ..
Cotton Market TKi* Year!
Actual Tests Will Convince You
Without the itabilizing influence of a
big cottc(n market in such a section as the
Augusta district prices might run riot for a
day pr a week, at times, in the small markets
and the farmers would be heavy losers. *
Study the cotton situation and compare
prices in other sections of the cotton belt
and you will find — AUGUSTA COTTON
MARKET PRICES ARE TOPPING THE
MARKET ELSEWHERE.
This condition is brought about by the
concentration and compression privileges
enjoyed by Augusta together with the ad
vantageous location and excellent distribu
tion facilities. All these benefits are shared
in by the small markets of this section when
• Augusta is utilized as a cotton center and
the farmers get higher prices as the general
result.

Tie hard to break the tender cord
When love hag bound the heart,
Tig hard, so hard to speak the word,
We must forever part. _ .
We saw him growing weaker,
We wept as would a child,
The'thought that forever would vanish
- The fragrance of his smile.
Like a tired child at evening dose,
Grandfather gently fell asleep,
From this world of pain and trouble,
To the land of peace and rest.
Those who would think him forgotten,
Little realize the pain
Of the long, weary years of grieving
Until we meet again.

actual conditions, reports indicate the crop will be veiy ,
lartgovernment estimate was only 18,492,000 ha sa. It m
a further loss 1 has taken place on account of boll weevil an °. UB r* ’

lick for 1928 is extremely thoughtful of feminine com
fort. One indication of tbis^coosaderacioo is Buick’s new
steering column, which may be adjusted to the most com
fortable poeitfon for women, as well as men. *
And in addition, Bukk for 1928 has a new steering wheel
-slender to fit feminine fingers yet deep and solid to
provide the firm grip men demand.
Buick for 1928 pleases women because it is easier to drive
—because it is more comfortable to ride in—and because
it is the acknowledged style-leader among motor cars.
That’s why you see so many Buicks at fashionable gather-,
ings and on the smartest boulevards.
