in a meeting held here Monday, de-

County growers in the organization
of the Marketing Association, provid-
ed the organization is able to secure
as much as so per cent of the weed in
Daviess. The meeting here Monday,
as has been the case generally, so we
are informed, agreed to hold their
tobacco off Of the market for ten
days, or perhaps longer, pending
prospects of thorough organization
of the entire Green River District,
and elected representatives to at

Wednesday, a membr of which COM

in the greensboro meeting that SO
per cent of all the tobacco in Da-

the plan washo secure not less than
80 per cent by the close of today, in

even a larger per centage would be
secured, as five hundred men were
giving their attention to a thorough
canvass of the County yesterday and
today.
The reports are, that in case the
desired amount is pledged thru the
association, the tobacco will be held
for a fair price, and that that portion
remaining off of the market at defi-
mite date be priced in hogsheads, for
proper keeping, and that an advance
