10 Millions
Monday Sale of 480-,
2O8 Pounds Goes for
$2l.57 for $lO3,62l.99
Sum

Tobacco sales on the Henderson
market Monday aggregated 43O, 2OS
pounds, selling for $1O3,621 SO, for an
average of $21.57 per hundred pounds,
r. w. Mcfarland, sales supervisor,
block which was cleared today, to-
gether with new offerings brought in,
around the noon hour.
Light sales are looked for tomor-
row, in view of the two-day Thanks
giving suspension on Thursday and
Friday.
Poor grades of leaf predominated
in Mondays sale, accounting for the
low price, which, however, was bet
ter than at the latter part of last
week.
The Monday sales, however, brought
the season total to well above the 49,
0,O00-pound figure, with money paid
out exceeding SIS, 100000, and the aver
age around $27.2O per hundred pounds.
The market will resume sales on
next Monday to run through to the
long Christmas-New Year suspension.
Dates for the holidays have not been
announced, but Henderson will OBJ
serve the same holiday period as Dur
ham and Oxford, the other large mar
kets of the Middle Belt. The three will
get together on dates before the close.
Some speculation is that sales will
cease about December Is or 16, to re-
sumo probably the second week in
January. This, however, is pure spe-
culatiOn.
