TEST TH£SE FACTS.
^ ow roany people can grade cotton? There are 26 different
grades, and the money differer.ee between them is great. How many
people are in constant touch with the world’s largest cotton buyers'
and with a market that changes nearly every minute? You need a
reliable and experienced man in Augusta (one of the world’s largest
markets) to insure your cotton, bringing the highest price.
2. Theold method of each person selling their own cotton, by get-
ting local buyers to make an offer, ard then just taking the ‘‘Highest
Bid is recognized as bad business. For the simple reason, the
Highest Bid” may be many dollars under the market value.
3. Good roads and public trucks enable you to send your cotton
to me in a few hours. Immediate sale can be made, insuring you of
the highest market price and prompt returns. Don’t give your cot
ton away by simply accepting the “Highest Bid” of a local buyer
in a small market. Let me show you results.

‘At Industry prosper*.Prefer Tkf Profit'*
Wage Values
HE purpose of wage is that of enabling the
earner to enjoy standards of living in keep
ing with the importance of his productive
capacity. The proper measure of a man’s
income is, therefore, determined by a consid
eration of what necessities and luxuries his
wase allows.
i ^
Thus it is that the wage of the cotton mill operative
cannot be measured by his pay envelope alone. Other
services known as wage equivalents, supplied at the
expense of the mill, offer him comparatively free of
charge many advantages that others of similar income
cannot afford.
Comfortable homes are furnished to operatives af
a nominal rental of less than $5.00 per month average.
Mills frequently supply laundry service, nurseries,
clinics, welfare service and group insurance to safe
guard health, life and income. Fuel is generally sup
plied at wholesale cost, and electric lights, water and
sewer service are usually furnished free or at a nomi-
nal fee,*never at a rate sufficient to pay the actual
cost. Those things, when added to the weekly par
check, offer a wage greater per individual than is of
fered by many other types of industry. Not infrequent
ly schools, hospitals, Y. M. C. A.’s, organized recrea
tion and various other advantages arc largely financed
by the mills for the benefit of the operatives.
The village system, originallv necessary to
raise living standards, is in reality the chief
means of enabling the operatives to live more
comfortably, more safely, more pleasantly,
more economically, and on a higher
plane than nnv other class of industrial
workers in the South.
