We know that Warehousemen on the small markets
promise you “highest prices.” They mean, their markets;
but they do not, and cannot mean “highest prices,” because
they know and we know, and we want you to know, that
without keen cdAipeUtion, “highest prices” cannot be obtained.
The more people there are wanting ^ thing, the more that
that thing will be in be manct.
Now, our buyers want tobacco, t^hiey want it because the
other fellow wants it, and wants it bad. Our market is not
limited to the byyers of the Big^Gpmpanies, we have from
five to ten times as many Independent Buyers as any other
market, and they buy several million pounds annually To
do this, t-hey BID HIGHER than;.the Big Buyer, and in the
meantime they are making the Big Buyer bid up to the “top
notch,’' on their purchases. That, is the effect of competi
tion, and that is why Danville stands pre*eminer.t as the
“Leading Loose Leaf Tobacco MafKet”
Now, don’t take any changes on doing “as weli” on some
other market, but sell in Danville, and KNOW that you are
doing the BEST. ; /
The Danville Co-Operative V/arehouse Company is the
best agency in the business today for the sale of “Loose Leaf
Tobacco.”

ner, Central, Holland’s, Planters and Union, which are un*
excelled as to location, lights, floor space, and accommoda-
lions, and conducted by the ablest corps of mc:n ever engag-
e 1 in the business, with ample capital, and every knowrn fa
cility, we offer you not only “highest market prices, but a
CERTAINTY of ‘ hi^er prices” than can be obtained else
