J expecting >ou simpK for the reasons that we believe that vou know that we have twimi the best lighted warehouses
J in tlu' state, two exceptional good auctioneers. accommodations for you ant! \our stock usi surpassed b> an\ ware
jjg house, an efficient force to handle \our tobacco, and finalK because
• The Gorrell boys will get you MORE MONEY for your tobacco than an\ other warehouse
JJ anywhere can get for you. $
I We have been in the warehouse business all our lil'e--long enough t-> have learned w hat tobacco and the
highest price each buyer will pa> for each grade. It is our business to make every pile bring the high figure, and 2
this we do. Do you know that the highest price paid for a pile of tobacco on the W inston market last year
was paid in Farmers Warehouse and that a Stokes man was the grower? Do you know that we got s4>(>.Kß for
the tobacco that was grown on one acre in 1913, this being by far the highest price ever paid on our market for the
yield from one acre? Do you know that the highest average ever made by a Winston warehouse on a day's sale
was made bv Gorrells, the average being $23.06 ? We mention these facts merely to prove to vou that the GOR
RELLS SELL IT HIGHER.
Now as for the coming year. We know it is going to take harder work than ever to sell this crop. The to- Z
bacco trade is not In as good condition as we had hoped it to be. Therefore, it is imperative on your part to sell Z
with men who have been selling Stokes tobacco for years. Our experience is worth something to you. We have ,Z
been selling Stokes tobacco so long that we know it as few others do. Z
We trust you will bring us your first load, and we feel sure we w ill get you prices that cannot be touched by J
any other house. We will have a first sale every day after Oct. lst--and you won't have to wait until late in the J
day to sell. Come to see us. We will expect you. V
Your friends, V
THE GORRELL BOYS. j
