SMALL hurley INCREASE
NOW SEEMS PROBABLE

That the general tobacco situation
in the hurley section is greatly i'm
proved over what it was a year ago
that the growers are greatly encour-
aged over the operation of their or
ganization and that the increase in
the crop of 1922 will not be more
than Is to 20 per cent over the pro
duction of 1921 are statements made
by President James c. Stone, of the
Burley Tobacco Growers Co-opera-
tive Association, in response to in
quiries as to the tobacco situation
and the probable production for the
coming season.
Mr.. Stone says in his statement
that the crop of 1921 will not total
more than 175,OOO,OOO pounds; that
100000 pounds of this has been
handled by the hurley association;
that between 100000 and 10000. 900
pounds of this has been sold to the
manufacturers "at very satisfactory
prices to the growers" and that the
association will sell the remainder as
soon as II is properly re-dried and
priced in hogsheads.
In his statement Mr.. Stone says:
There are approximately 175,000,-
900 pounds of the 1921-1922 crop of
hurley tobacco, which is the smallest
crop of hurley that has been grown
in the past fifteen years, and this
shortage is due largely to the ex-
tremely low prices realized by the
growers last year, together with the
generally unsettled business condi
tions of the country.
During last summer and last fall
the Burnley Tobacco Growers Cooper
alive Association was organized and
actually began functioning on Janu-
airy rs and through the association
we have handled 12O.OO0.0OO pounds
of this years crop. We have sold of
this amount between 55,O00,000 and
100000 pounds at very satisfactory
prices to the growers, and will sell
the balance as soon as 1t is properly
re-dried and priced into hogsheads.
From present indications it looks
now as if the crop will be increased
this year over last from 10 to 20 per
cent in acreage, but it is hard to tell
what the ultimate outcome Of pro-
duction will be, for the reason that
weather conditions for the next four
months play such an important factor
in the size and quality Of the crop.
"The general tobacco situation In
the hurley section is greatly improv-
ed over what IL was at this time last
year The growers are very much
more encouraged, and feel now, that
through the operation Of their asso-
citation they have found a way out OF
their troubles,
This general feeling of being able
to help themselves, and the better
prices which have been realized for
their biggest money crop through the
association, has given them new hope
and this feeling seems TO be perme
ating every line OF business in the
hurley district"

Produce Review

Unreasonable weather still holds
back the marketing of poultry, butter,
and eggs by the producers, causing
firm markets for each product.
The demand for live an ddressed
poultry is nominal and receipts about
usual for this period of the year.
Butter production should increase
rapidly from now on, and while the
demand is extremely good, 1t is nat
ural to expect lower prices.
AS the demand for May storage
eggs is not as good as for April, the
prospects are that the egg market
will work to lower level by the first
of May. This will be influenced to a
certain extent by the production.
