Richmond daily register. (Richmond, Madison County, Ky.) 1917-1978, 1919-01-30
THIS SEASONS AVERAGE
TO BREAK ALL RECORDS
Predictions Made Though That Pounds
of Tobacco Will Fall Short of
Last Year.

The prices for tobacco continues
high in Richmond. Selling switched
across to the Madison House yester-
day, and the same splendid trend of
prices continued which has character
ized the local market right along.
Already almost five million pounds
Of tobacco have been sold over the
local breaks, and the average is going
to be higher when the season is ended
than ever before. Many tobacco ex-
perts do not expect that more than
6,000, 900 pounds will be sold this sea
son, due to shortage, but others think
that the 1000, 900 mark win be reach
ed. It's a question as to just how
much tobacco there is still out in the
Richmond territory. The Lexington
market is several million pounds
short of last seasons totals at this
time Practically all tobacco has been
stripped according to reports that are
coming in, and the growers are just
waiting favorable opportunities to get
their crops loaded and unloaded at the
warehouses.
Some splendid figures We're paid at
the old Madison House yesterday and
the market continues strong there
again today. Some of the sales not
