MARKET NEEDS FOUR
SALES EACH DAY.

The Wilson Tobacco market re-
suuires four sales each day in order
to clean up daily all the tobacco
which comes to market. Tobacco
which comes to market and stays on
the floor for several days is injured
to greater or less degree. The far
mer is required to return home or
Therefore the necessity for making
xhe selling end of the market just as
efficient as possible is very apparent.
The buyers should have sufficient
help to enable the warehousemen to
conduct four sales daily. The expert
ment was tried this week and work
ed nicely, enabling the market to
clean up the tobacco over Sunday.
The facilities here as far as stor-
age. and prizing are concerned are
ample to take care of the weed, the
selling end seems to be the only
trouble, and, this should also be TAX
en- care of.
On the other hand the farmers
should not rush their tobacco to mar
ket so rapidly. There is plenty Of
time to sell. The market will not close
until April. The Times has for years
been endeavoring to show that any
ommodity thrown upon the market
in a large volume will depress the
price The Wilson Tobacco market
has been blocked all this week. The
'uesult is a decline in price. 1t is per-
fectly natural to cause the buyers to
feel that the crop exceeds all esti-
mates, and there is a plenty to go
round, when it appears that every
farmer for miles around is selling his
tobacco despite the rush.

WHAT WILL JAPAN Do?

One thing that this armament con-
ference will disclose, is the clear
showing Of the aspirations of those
nations who desire to remain in
shape to fulfill these ambitions.
All the nations have agreed to the
American proposals regarding the
reduction of armaments with the sole
exception of Japan, and the question
before the conference and the world
s what will Japan do?
Japan insists that she is with
America and the other powers in

she is with them in purpose A man
may grant that your way is right,
out 1t may not be to his interest to
agree with you. Japan seems to be
IN this attitude.

their strength and their prowess
since they whipped Russia -he largest
nation in the world and considered
at that time the most powerful
Naturally every one desires to try

Heves that he can succeed Nations

With prices at existing levels, how
many men will buy sixteen suits Of

learned, Wallace Reid is the only man
who enjoys this unique distinction.
His mark of sixteen suits at one or
der is said to be the record in this
respect. 1t was just part of the pre-
paratory work in connection with the
filming of Cecil B. DeMille's latest
Paramount picture 1.-The Affairs Of
Anatol'' which will be the feature at
the Wilson Theatre next Monday.

wardrobe for this role included six

This collection includes a number
of business suits, hunting clothes,
