crop, puts it on three of four diff
ferent baskets, and the price will
vary from 5 to 20 cents per pound
This, under the cooperative mar
keting method, will absolutely be
eliminated, and a uniform price
for each grade will be established.
Although the bankers and ehe
merchant are not directly inter-
ested in the growing of tobacco,
he is indirectly interested in the
price it brings, ard it seems to me
method of this kind will 90 a
long way toward stabilizing not
only the price of tobacco, but al
so credits.
"For example: A year ago a
man who had bought one hundred
arces of land and paid $4O0 per
acre for it, could come to his ban
ker and ask for a loan of $t5,C00
to $4,000, and in most cases
would have gotten it. He had one
hundred acres for which he had
paid $4,000 in cash and owed no
other debt and no doubt the ma
jority of you bankers would have
loaned him the money. No,as.
within the next twelve months,
there were conditions which arose
over which he had absolutely no
control, that decreased the value
of his collateral to point where
it was not worth his debt; and it
seems to me that anything that
can be done by him which viii
stabilize the value OF hiscolIateral
which in most cases is land,
whether it be 500 per acre. $500
or $500 per acre, would be much
better for the grower, the banker
and the whole country.

pension Of sentence by the court,
pending the appeal, The other
prisoner sent to Winchester is a
young white man named Milton
Hall, who is charged with grand
larceny in the theft of Nick Har
ber's automobile. Owing to the
fact that the principal witness,
Frank Amcrine, is i'll the reform
school the case could not be tried
and as young Hall could not fur
nish bond he will have to remain
in jail until the October term of
court. The sheriff was directed
to take the prisoners to the Win
chester Jail at once.
Judge Shackelford passed sem
tence on the prisoners who have
been convicted at the term Of

mite white, of this city, was the
second prisoner from this county

ton by his counsel, Attorney Z.
S. Wiggins, for a new trial was

case at length with the Judge
but was given a lesson in law
obedience and duty to his child
rcn by the Judge instead. Isaacs
refused to promise to send the
children TO school, and was warn
ed by the court that if he did not
obey the law. they would be ia
