Sales on our market for the week
Just closed amount to 1858 hhds., with

hhds. Sales on our market since jan
uary 1st amount to 121 ,007 hhds. Sales
this date amount to 121, 054 hhds.
All grades considered, our market
has been lower this week for hurley
tobacco than at any time during the
year. The offerings Of the week en-
braced 1854 hhds. of hurley and the
percentage of reflections was very
good reason for the heavy decline in
prices for hurley tobacco since the
first Of July as the stocks are not
excessive and the crop on the hill
smaller than last year in acreage.
Yet it is an unfavorable fact to the
holders Of hurley tobacco and it is
with them as to whether or not they
will accept the present range Of
values or curtail the offerings with
the hope Of better results. We find
it necessary to lower quotations on
several grades.
