tion of a name for the mill first came

The idea of establishing a. cotton
mill at Bedford City originated with
Mr., James P. Gray, formerly of North
Carolina, when he was largely con-
cerned In this business, Moving to this
place for the benefit of the inyigorating
mountain climate, he was struck with
the advantages afforded here for such
an industry, and suggested the idea to
number OF business men. who a once
became interested. Mr.. Gray is the
largest subscriber, and it is hoped ere
long the entire amount, 100000, nee
essary to establish the plant will be
subscribed
such an industry would impart new
life to the business interests of the
town, afford employment to numbers
of worthy men and women and he In
every way a public benefit, and that
its establishment may soon materialize

Good Sales ut sDanville.

~ Especial to the Times lspatcnsJ
Z pANVILLE, VA. March 2S.-Messrs,
ibrell Brothers In their weekly re-
view of the tobacco market say:
After seasonable weather, receipts
this week have been fairly large. con
sidering the quantity now left in
farmers hands, Sales have gotten
over each day before noon. The quail
ity OF the breaks differs little or none
from the offerings of the past month,
being about an average of the crop.
Prices rule firm on all grades without
any change worthy of note within the
past thirty days except that good 10
fine cutters continue easier. as before
reported.
No doubt prices are sufficiently re-
munerattve to the farmers, and the
situation generally sufficiently en-
icouraging to induce them to make a
material increase in the planting this
year, While labor conditions are more
favorable than last season, they are
not altogether satisfactory, Trade in
redrled tobacoos Is rather quiet.

very common grades also sold we'll
There was a full corps of buyers on
sales, and all bought heavily. The
American Tobacco Company purchased
some of the finest wrappers lately that
have been on the market in a long
time. AS many of the loads being
brought to market now represent the
last of the individual crops. the loads
are, as a general rule, very light. and
therefore there was an unusual large
number of planters on the market. All
the counties of the tobacco belt were
represented.

LIGHT RECEIPTS
PUSH PRICES UP
Tobacco of Good Quality in De,
mand, and Not Enough Coming
in to Supply Needs.

Total sales of tobacco for last week
showed a large decrease from that Of
the week before, there being only
s39S,526 pounds handled. In the first
days of the week prices were .consid-
jerably lower, but continued light re-
ceipts of good quality tobacco carried
them, by the close of the market on
Friday, to much higher point. Deal
ers estimate that more than thr.e-
fourths of the crop has been sold. and
think that prices from now on to the
close of the season will be better each
day. Thus far the average for what
has been sold Is the best for many
years. For the entire 1907 crop there
is little doubt that it will run close to
$40 per 100 pounds.
The times dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1903-1914, 1908-03-29

the greater portion Of the crop has
been marketed, there being only a
small percentage now left in the farm
ers' hands. Prices on that offered are
still all that could be expected. and
farmers generally have been highly
pleased with the returns from their
past years work.
The statement is often heard through
this section that the farmers are in
better condition than they have been
for years. They are paying their bills
promptly. and seem to have what
money is necessary In fact, 1t is said
that they are the only people at this
time who have ready cash.
