Tobacco Prices are.
Better; 4Oc for Same

The loose market has been more
active during the past week than
for some time, the French Reggie
agents buying freely in the country
and on the street market. Prices of
these grades are a shade stronger,
while the medium and better grades
Of leaf have shown some weakness,
but the greater part of selling has
been in the low and common grades.
The good season that we have had
is enabling farmers to get their to-
bacco in shape for delivery and no
doubt we will see continuation OF
the activity during the next few
weeks, as farmers want to get their
barns cleared ready for the new
crop.
The loose floors and chute mar
kets have been discontinued. All
sales are made privately, or at public
cutlery, as the onwer prefers, but
since buyers are fewer the rules OF
the selling market have been sus-
pended.
There have been some sales OF
both old and new leaf of medium and
good grades selling in hogsheads and
prices have ruled about the same as
previously reported. Some extra
good wrappers selling as high as
4Oc. while the range of prices were
from 25 to 40 cents. Other grades
of medium to good leaf were sold
at Is to rs cents. There has also
been some activity in the lug mar
ket of the 1920 crop. Some lots run
ming from common to medium SELL
ing at Az to 6 cents. There has
been more inquiry for the common
and low grades of both leaf and
Jugs than for sometime past.
The weather for the past two
weeks has been ideal on the growing
crop and most of the district has
been blessed with good rains. In
some localities there has been rath-
err more than we would like, but the
damage is very slight from this
source. There are other sections
where the rainfall has been lighter,
but there has been sufficient for the
growing crop Of tobacco which is I'M
proving as fast as we ever saw
crop. The greater part of the crop
has been we'll cultivated, while in
some cases it has been neglected.
The Improvement is greatest where
the cultivation was best, and aside
from the greater part of the crop
being late, we can say that the
growth and condition is as good as
we ever saw it. If weather condi-
lions are favorable and we nave
late fall, think we will make some
extra good quality and the crop will
yield heavily, but of course this all
depends on the weather. Farmers
generally are making an extra eff
fort to produce good quality and we
think they will be well rewarded for
their efforts and are also hoping
that the out turn Of the crop will
be better than we expect. Will say,
however, that the late tobacco is
small and must be topped low in or
der for it to mature. If it grows
large we may see large part Of the
crop gritty, with bad tails, other
wise good quality.

Even IF Times Are
Dull Must Have News

Even if these be dull times---
money hard to re-, the rr:ce of
farm products low and little from
the farm to sell to replenieh de-
pletcd pocket book--citizens Of the
county feel that they must have
their county news brought to them
fresh and crisp every Friday. There
was time when people did not read
during the summer months, or when
times were dull they had their pa
pers discontinued, but that time is
passed and gone, and now every one
knows the importane of keeping pos
ted by reading the county paper ev-
cry week.
"Man may live without poetry,
art and books" but he cannot live
SO well without his county paper
Sometimes one tries it, but within a
week or so finds out how much ne
has missed when he is in company
with his neighbors and hears them
relating the many interesting things
that have happened over the county
and which they had read about IN
the county paper-then he beats it
right back to the Enterprise office
and has his name re-entered. This
does not occur as frequently as for
merly, for most of them have learn
ed by this time that they cannot at
ford to do without the paper.
We make the assertion with no
fear of successful contradiction,
that the Enterprise will save the
price of subscription over and over
again to every subscriber who reads
the ads every week in the paper.
You who do not read the ads miss
very valuable part of the news, for
tie store news in the Enterprise is
what pays big dividends Only last
week there were some ads in the
PAPER announcing prices on dry
goods that no reader had seen ad-
vertised since 1917, and dare say
there were hundreds of our sub
scribers who saved more than the
price paid for a years subscription.
Just by reading these ads in one is
sue. Future issues will have some
thing just as good.
Let us urge that you read the store
news every week.

newal subscribers up to Saturday
noon:

TN all of modern merchandising
L the biggest conundrum is the
fabric tire situation.
Around 1929 of ali car owners
use fabric tires.
Their instinct for quality is as
strong and insistent as any one
else's.
Why, then, are they offered
