The prize was won by man, who
had only invested in one chance,
while a great many others had bought
chances rather recklessly. This is

BUYING TOBACCO
At LOCAL HOUSE
WEsTERFIELD LEASES HART
FORD WAREHOUSE AND
TOBACCO COMING IN.

Mr.. J. B. Westerfield, of Fords-
Vile, has closed a deal with the d.
rectors of the Hartford Warehouse
company whereby gets the use of the
local warehouse for the coming year,
and will buy tobacco here the rest
OF the season. Already tobacco is
coming in and at press hour last
night between $4,000 and $4,000
pounds of the weed has been bought
for delivery here. The warehouse
is being cleaned out and prepared
and by next week buying here will
be in full sway.
Mr.. Westerfield Is acting as agent
for q Louisville corporation that al
80 has representatives on the loose
leaf floors in Owensboro and prac-
tically the same prices viii be paid
here that prevail in that city. except
the higher grade tobacco which we
understand is not desired at the reg
ular scale Of prices. Since the meet
ing In Owensboro Of the tobacco
growers for the purpose of reorganiz-
ing prices have gone mp on the floors
there and tobacco that was formerly
rejected has been brought back and
sold for good price. The distance
that farmers living near Hartford
must haul to deliver In Greensboro
however. is SO great that they will
no doubt take advantage of the op-
portunity to sell here.
The buying of tobacco here will no
doubt. stimulate business In this Sec
ton. and the handling Of the weed
will give employment to several
men.
