CIRCULATION IS
THE ADVERTISERS
SUPREME DELIGHT

General circulation is the wise
advertisers supreme delight.
This is what the ENTERPRISE Of
fers the business men and merchants
of ALL the of Weakley county
for there is no locality, no commune
ty, no town in this county in and
around which the Enterprise does
not go into a majority of the homes.
A pretty broad statement, but ask
the people who come into your
store-ask the physicians who visit
the homes what paper they see most
in these homes.
Last year C. B. Brooks gave list
of prices in this paper, and later he
told us he sold a good bill of goods
to a man living entirely out of the
Sharon trade territory; that the man
said he saw the prices in the Enter
prise. He sold him other bills after
that, too That is one Of the adj
vantages of a general, countrywide
circulation like the Enterprise has
it gives the merchant an opportunity
of drawing trade to his store and
his town from some other locality.
That is what Charlie Brooks at Sha-
ron did, but he could not have done
it if the advertising medium he used
didn't have the circulation. Circu-
lation considered, we guarantee our
advertising rate to be the lowest Of
fered in this section.
But the new ones continue to
come in, as shown by the list be-
low; these coming in up to last Fri
day night:

Louisville, KY, Jan. 18-The high
est price in the history of the local
tobacco market was recorded here
Friday when $3.50 a hundred was
paid for a hogshead of bright leaf
from Anderson county, at the Plan
ters-Farmers' House. Until this sale
the highest price reached for the sea-
son was $3.50 per hundred. To-
bacco brought high prices all over
the market. Buyers and sellers
crowded the houses and the scarcity
of bright leaf with color caused spir-
tied bidding wherever that type Of
weed was offered. The crop, as a
whole, is common in quality and buy
ers are constantly on The alert for
anything with color, Bidding actively
at first sight on the good weed.
Offerings for the day totaled 496
hogsheads, all of which were hurley
except thiFty-two.
