referred to this department for attcn-
ton.
We are afraid we cannot give very
much advice as to the prices the next
crop of tobacco in your section will
bring. Prices of tobacco, as well as
all other commodities, are governed
by the law Of supply and demand. Foc
the past several years, or since the
commencement Of the war, leaf to-
bacco of all types has advanced very
materially in price. This was brought
about primarily by increased demand
by this Government, as well as other
Governments furnishing tobacco to
soldiers, and it is matter of COM
mon knowledge that men in the Ser
vice consume a much larger quantity
of tobacco, per capita, than they do
in civilian life. Now that the war

The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1919-04-09

is over, there will undoubtedly be
some curtailment in the demand for
leaf tobacco-as to what extent, we
cannot prophesy. Furthermore, it is
our understanding that the stocks
of American tobacco abroad are very
low, and until the world has created
surplus of tobacco, as carried in
normal times, there should be de-
mand that will show satisfactory
prices to the grower.
Yours very truly,

Mr.. R. D. Cothran,
Manning, S. C:
Dear Sir
Replying to yours Of the 14th,
from which l note what you say
reference the report recently noised
among your farmers with respect to
the probable price of tobacco the
coming season.
This question, as you will probably
recognize, is difficult one to answer,
and one upon which l cannot advise
you.
With reference to the production of
Bright tobacco in 1919, early in Jan
uary the Tobacco Association of the
United States called a meeting of
Bright tobacco buyers to be held in
Richmond This meeting was attend
ed by a large number of buyers, and
it was the consensus of opinion that
the 1910 crop would likely be very
large one, as all buyers had been
importuned by numerous towns in
South Georgia, Eastern Alabama and
Northern Mississippi for the placing
of orders for the 1919 crop These
numerous enquiries from new terri
tories seemed to indicate that the
1919 crop might be overdonc. A
Resolution was passed by the Asso-
citation and sent to the Secretary of
Agriculture, Washington, in which his
attention was called to the probable
ovcr-production, and requested, if his
Department saw the matter in the
same light, that the disseminate a
warning through such channels as
were at his disposal. Shortly after
wards notices appeared in the news
papers warning farmers against a
large over production.
Naturally, prices will depend, in a
large measure, on the size of the crop.
A heavy production would de-
press prices, but as | am unable to
forecast what the crop will be, nat
urally am not in position to fore
cast what prices will probably rule.
Yours faithfully,
F.. S. Carlton.

Dear Sir
Replying to yours Of the I4th, in
regard to prices of South Carolina
tobacco the coming season, we wish
to advise that we can say nothing
definitely about prices for the next
crop. At the same time, we can see
no reason why tobacco will not sell
at profitable price to the grower.

Dear Sir:-
Your letter of the 14th inst, adj
dressed to our Petersburg Depart
ment has been referred to us for re-
ply.
Supply and demand, financial condi-
tions, ETC., effect the price of tobacco
as the do other commodities. 1t
looks now as if a very large crop of
bright tobacco will be grown this
year, and if such is the case, it is but
natural to suppose that prices will be
lower, but just how much lower it is
impossible for anyone to say at this
time.
Yours very truly,
