not start until two weeks from next

IN this section of the Middle Belt ter
rltory Is half completed or better
some growers who cured barns ear
ly have tested the market in the Dor
der and Eastern Carolina belts, but
the bulk of the local crop will be held
for sale on the home market. Sales
that have been made have been of
suf1lclent price to encourage grow
ers to expect satisfactory average
Tor their crop when the season gets
under way here. There is a strong
feeling that the crop in this section
is so much better than that in the
border or eastern belts that it will
bring a better price. The drought was
severe here, as it was in those sec
tons, but relief came in time to do
more benefit to growers here than in
the other regions, where the season
ordinarily is three to four weeks ear
lier.
Henderson buyers representing the
big companies, who are in from the
border territory for the weekend with
their families, say that there is still
tobacco in the fields that has not been
cured, but that another week will
probably see the job finished there
Some estimate that the border crop
is about 40 percent sold, and that
considerably more than half of it will
have been disposed of by the end of
two more weeks and the start of the
season here.
Local buyers and warehousemen
who will operate here, but who are
now on the border markets. will re-
turn home in time for active duty on
the local market. Meantime, prepara-
tons for the start of the season here
are well abreast of the moving sea-
sons, and everything will be in read
