that such ginners collect for the next
two years a tax of twenty-five cents
per bale on all cotton ginned, remit
ting this tax monthly to the Depart
ment of Revenue.
The law imposes a fine of five dol
lars per day on all ginnrs who oper
ate without securing State License.
Therefore, it is directed that ginners
who have not yet secured their li
cense to operate write the Commis
sioner of Agriculture requesting a
form of application for license, which
should be filled out and forwarded
immediately.
As a matter of information I de
sire to state that the tax referred to
constitutes a fund which guarantees
the integrity of the warehouse rece
ipts issued under the State Ware
house System, and that nine-tenths
of this fund will be loaned for the
construction of warehouses, the W^
vidual loan not to exceed fifty per
cent of the total warehouse cost. The
attention of your readers is called to
the benefits which they may obtain
by availing themselves of the provis
ions of this law either in regard to
the operation raider it of existing j
warehouses or in borrowing money
for the construction of new ware
houses.

Commissioner of Agriculture.

It is very interesting to observe enthu
siastic savers. We watch them as they
come regularly to the bank to make their
deposits. There is on their faces the smile
that is peculiar to winners.
Thei rglory is not alone in the amount
they save: they know that it is not always
easy to save and are proud to have suc
ceeded.
Ah'
And then there is the fascination of
growth! Only those who have really sav
