Two great records were nnde when
sales reopened at the Big Home House
Tuesday. A figure for the days sale,
$71.40 will give them all mark -
shoot at for a days average 81 any
mans warehouse. Then the crop. aver
age made by Mr.. Terry s. Hagi and
Burton Of the entire crop aver5 5ge Of
$94.90 per hundred pounds, is another
mark that has not yet been approach
ed anywhere in the hurley district in
this or any other year. And Messrs.
Hagan and Burton sold q total Of
7,415 pounds at that figure, top, which
Is certainly "going some" III
Everybody admitted hat nothing like
the prices that were paid at the Home
House Tuesday had ever been seen in
this neck Of the woods before. All rec
6rds went by the board. II prices had
been any better, Bill Luxon jus could
ut have stood it, that's all there is to
4. No man ever worked harder for
the patrons Of his house than Bill is
doing and that he is getting the goods
for them pleases him just as much as
Il does them and that's saying lot,
for the growers are the ones who are
getting the big money.
Mr.. Tom Baldwin sold Q part Of his
tobacco at the Home House Tuesday,
and It sold well over 80 cents. This
weed isn't NEARLY as good as that his
son, Tom Baldwin, Jr, refused 80 a
pound for several weeks ago. Just
when that crop will go on the breaks is
not known yet though its appearance
will be watched for with intrest by
everyone. Old tobacco experts say
they never saw any as good. Vernon
Leer says many told him he was 6
crazy fish when he offered 90 cents q
young for "Young Toms" tobacco but
now they are all admitting he was q
lot smarter than most of 'em. Every
one is specializing on what that ia
nous crop is going to bring. Mr.. Bald
win is said to hold 1t at $l.25 pound
II anyone wants to take a little sport
Ing chance on it before It goes over
the breaks.
