H. T. Clark is manager and L. M. Pittman weigher, both licensed. The warehouse is licensed by the State and regulated by State and Federal warehouse laws. When a bale of cotton is stored with the warehouse a receipt is issued and this receipt can be used as good collateral for getting ready money if the owner of the cotton does not belong to the cot ton Coop. Association. If the owner of the cotton is a coop., then money can be obtained at the time of the storage. By storing in the ware house in Scotland Neck the amount of the freight is saved that would otherwise be used in making delivery to the Association. The Roanoke Bonded Warehouse has a contract with the N. C. Cotton Growers Cooperative Association and urges all members fo the Association in this community to store their cot ton here for convenience, safety and economic factors.
