The fact that the independent
Burley growers in their conven-
ton at Lexington, decided it
was best to cut out the 1911 crop,
coupled with the fact that the
members of the Burley Society
pool of last year have already ex-
pressed themselves as in favor
of that propt sition. means that
it will be cut out, and the owners
of crops of 1910 who have not
already sold will, it is said, hold
their tobacco now and not put it
on the market, as it seems sure
that higher prices will come
shortly when it becomes appar-
ent, there will be no 1911 crop
grown. A number Of growers
have already stated that they
will put no more tobacco on the
market for several months, or a
least not till the time arrive,
when it is plain that no crop will
be raised this year, For thi
reason the pool growers and tn
independent growers are bot
much pleased over h e actor
of the independent growers con
vention in voting in favor o
having no 1911 crop. 1t certain
ly looks like better prices wi
be received for the remainder O
the 1910 crop and the remainde
of the pooled crops of 1909.
