RICHMOND MARKET is
PROVEN MUCH HIGHER
LEGAL Pnahooiter Cleans Up BY
Buying In Another Town and
Then Selling Crop Here

Richmond tobacco market today.
There is. no let-up and every indica-
ton that the market will continue to
improve from Eow on.
An indication .,f Just how much
better the Richmond market is than
IN other counties was shown on the
local breaks Tuesday morning. A
prominent local 'pinhooker" had
bought half of crop in an adioin-
ing county. 1t went to another ware
house, outside of Richmond. The
Richmond man rejected the sale OF
his half of the crop, and then bought
cut his partner at what had heen Of
fered in the other town, which was
$50.25 g hundred pounds.
Tuesday morning the local man
brought the same crop to the Rich
! Hond market, placed it on sale anG
sold it for $65 hundred pounds-a
clear profit of SIS hundred ovel
what the same crop had been sold fol
az another market and not a hundred
miles away from Richmond either.
