SELLING SEASON NOT TLONG
ENOUGH

A prominent business man noting
the block sales of tobacco on the Will
son market for the past several days
told the editor of The Times today
that the market did not open suffi-
ciently early in the fall and did not
remain open sufficiently long, with a
full corps of buyers to handle the
crop of tobacco which is sold on this
market.
On account of the short season,
and the taking of buyers Off this
market after Christmas to send else
where the farmers rush their to-
bacco to market. This of course af-
fects the price. Again the farmers
are compelled to advance large sums
of money to their tenants, during
the harvest season and must wait
sometime before they can sell their
tobacco, and secure a return of these
advances.
He said that rumor is in circy-
lation to the effect that the market
here would close Thanksgiving day
and not reopen, and that this is re-
sponsible for the great rush of to-
bacco here this week. OF course it is
an error regarding the statement
that the market will close Thanks
giving day not to reopen. Thanks
giving day. will .be taken as holiday
rs usual. but the market will reopen
Immediately afterward.
But the whole matter resolves it
self into this That Wilson should
be a large mad Independent market,
since it handles sufficient tobacco to
keep a full staff of buyers on it for
eight months in the year, and that
if the farmers understood this they
would not rush their tobacco to mar
let and would receive better price
for the weed.

to pay the price-acted her part ex-

both through her personal beauty and

herself as an artist of the stage. Mol
lie McNeal, the forewoman was
agreeably impersonated by Adah
Barbour, while Louise Sydmeth as
Mrs. Warrington Brown, the rich, fat
customer, left nothing to be desired.
Ruth Rickaby in the role of Phyliss
Manning, the first sweetheart of Lom-
bardi, was unquestionably an actress
OF fine ability. And finally Eloise, the
model, with the Venus shape and rag
time mind, was wonderfully portray
ed by Miss Daisy Rudd
Miss Ethel Wilson in the role of
Ida Moore, show girl, won
large appreciation from the audience.
Like some of the others of the cast
she combined excellent acting with
great personal beauty.
Guy Harrington playing the part
of Ricardo Tosello, the vermicelli
king, but mostly the romantic lover
and good and loyal friend, handled
his rather mixed part with much
skill.
Regarded from every point of view
