with the growers and sought to gair
some idea of the probable averages
that might be expected for the selling
season.
1887 Comparisons.
Opening day sales on the Hender'
son market last year were 4S3, OOs
pounds, bringing Sill, 25S.81, at an av
nrage of $3.50 per hundred pounds
There was q block sale that day, and
on the second day the sale amounted
to, 123,3 1922 pounds, bringing 1,776.21
at an average of $25.76. The market
last year opened on Thursday, anc
the first "short week" comprised on
w two days, the aggregate sales for
which amounted to 5000 pounds
and brought $143 O3O.82 at an average
of $25.7O per hundred. Season sales
on the Henderson market last season
were %, S52, s08 pounds, selling for S.
925,91O.16. at an average of $25.28 per
hundred.
Some opinion expressed was that
the 1898 crop of tobacco was short
much below that of last year in
pounds, and virtually all of which
would be sold by Christmas. The size
of today's offerings, by comparison
with last year, indicated that, as the
total for the day was greatly in ex-
cess of the 55O,OOO-odd pounds offer
ed the first day last year.
The Henderson season opened with
double sales on the market, as has
been the custom for many years here,
and with aggressive bidding on the
part of the buyers, and with growers
and business people alike following
intensely the progress of the sales
and the prices paid.
A slightly different system of sell
ing has been inaugurated on the mar
ket this year, as compared with other
seasons. The object is to facilitate
sales, though limit of 800 piles an
hour has been placed for selling for
the entire season.
The 2.72O-pound first row sale that
brought an average of $2716 all came
from the farm of George A. Rose. Sr.
and commanded prices in 1ange
from around Is IT, 10 cents as the
lowest to about 3S cents per pound
for the best of the lot.
Five cents was the lowest price
heard of during the day, and there
were very few piles that went at lev
els under ten and IL cents. The
highest reported was 38 cents. There
were few piles above the 30-cent
plane, but piles that brought between
rs and 80 cents were plentiful.
Sales crews here were adhering to
the regulations limiting sales tn 800
piles an hour, but reports from other
Middle Bet centers were that there
was fragrant disregard of that stand
ard of speed for selling the leaf. 1t
was said the regulation was imposed
by the Tobacco Association OF the
United States. What could or would
be done about it was not certain to-
day. It was pointed out, however,
that if Henderson adheres to the rul-
ing and other competing markets dis
regard it, the local market will be
placed.at great disadvantage.

Informing farmers how better to

marketing program of the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture.
Meanwhile, the department is spon-
soring sorting schools throughout the
State Gin an effort to help tobacco
growers obtain the maximum price
for their product"
Growers are losing thousands of dol
lars every season because of. their
failure properly to sort and tie their
tobacco. On one market, the tobacco
was so jumbled and carelessly thrown
together that buyers walked off tho
warehouse floor and refused to place
a bid as
Tobacco is costly crop to produce,
and it is folly to cure crop without
giving the same attention to sorting
that is given to production and curing.
Here are the essentials that grow
ers must take into consideration in
sorting their tobacco:
1. Sorting of tobacco can begin in
the fields during harvesting, if grow
