The solid, substantial gain in return to the grower has been made with only one-third of the tobacco. Imagine what the in crease would have been had the association received half of the to bacco. - Here's irrefutable proof that the orderly way of marketing is the only way that pays the producer. Once Again, Members: This is your achievement. This is your association. The advance indicates the confidence of the U. S. Government and the big financial institutions i n your management. The association has confidence i n you. The combination is bound to win! THE TOBACCO GROWERS COOPERATIVE ASSOCIATION tGCa >
