Better Prices - tho Season
Advances.
6nston, Sept. 11-Between $780,
and $250.000 is estimated to
Fe been paid out to local tobacco
lowers during the first four days Of
/ne new sales season. The sum was
probably nearer the. quarter million
Amark. Breaks during the opening days
pggregated between 100000 and L.
100000 pounds. according to indivi-
dual warehouse reports. Much of the
tobacco sold. possibly the bulk Of it,
was OF inferior quality.
Tobacconists in this vicinity look
for gradually increasing prices as a
result OF the apparent policy Of the
growers in Withholding their best
weed from the market for the pres
ent. The general quality OF the crop is
fair. Better crops have been made
throughout the region. but In some
localities some superb tobacco has
been grown.
Local growers will make q reason
able profit on 15 cent tobacco. con-
servative observers belive. AS q mat
ter OF fact the crop will probably
bring an average above that price.
There has been NO "bulling'' of the
local market, say members of the
Tobacco Board Of Trade. The admins
tratton OF that organization is conser-
vative.

 'T regret very much that we have no definite data to give you on this subject. All that know is that the boil weevil is much worse in Arkan- sas than in normal wears. I am ir- clined to believe that the weevil damage in the southern portion of the state is not very much worse than in
