ASSOCIATION
SECURES WAREHOUSES;

The list of all warehouses secured
to date by the Tobacco Growers
Cooperative Association in South
Carolina was given out this week by
T. c. Watkins, Jr., Director of Ware
houses for the Association.
MIR. Watkins has been in conference
at Raleigh during the past week with
the warchouscmen Of North Carolina
who have rendered their properties to
the Association. True to their word
the officials of the Association have
taken over both warehouses and ware
housemen wherever possible and ac-
cording to Mr.. Watkins the Associa-
tion is in excellent position to care
TOR its tobacco growing members
throughout the Carolinas and Vir-
ginia.
The strength of the Cooperative
Association with over 40 warehouses
evenly distributed throughout South
Carolina is revealed by today's an
nouncement.
The refusal of a few warchousemcn
to discuss terms with the Association
hitherto, has given its officials no
anxiety according to Director Wat
kins, who let it be known that suffi-
cient warehouses to take care of a
majority of this years crop have been
secured. Negotiations with still 9TH
er warehouses may be closed in few
days, according to Mr.. Watkins.
Over 70 warehouses in North Caro-
lima and az warehouses in Virginia
have signed up with the Cooperative
Marketing Association.
The iampaign of the Marketing AS
sociation for new members is develop
ing great strength according to latest
reports from Raleigh headquarters

Edlt0f Inc Manning Times:
Manning, S. G.
In an article written by Mr.. C. r.
Sprott and published in your paper,
! want to thank Mr. Sprott for the
information given in reference to the
average of tobacco sold on the diff
fcrent markets in the surrounding
sections. Now it appears to me that
viii e the average paid by the COM
panies is very low and yet that does
not mean that the farmers who rails
ed the tobacco even got near that
much for their tobacco. AS you know
there are always pin-hookcrs that
the buyer or the warehouscman allows
to get hold of good lot of tobacco
and resell it and then only is it
charged to the tobacco companies and
the final sale on the floor is what the
average is made up from. Now what
really does the producer get? He
gets his property sold for taxes, and
cannot help himself. AS to what the
business men and bankers have done
for the market at Manning l do not
know. But one thing I do know that
from this section we have been per-
suadcd by the price offered us in Man
ming for our tobacco not to carry it
there. And when we carried it to
other markets or so-called markets
