Assures rarity Prices
The Wallace type of Oman is
the representative of the United
States Department of Agricul-
ture who, in effect, puts a price
floor under tobaccos so the
farmers will be assured at least
parity prices for their offerings.
In Wallace there are two such
men. They are Franklin B.
Reynolds, of Brookneal, Va,
who has the title of Market SUI
pervisor, and his associate
James Hendrick, Of Whining
ton.
U. s. Standards
These two men are called a
great many things. Some good,
some bad. Mainly they are call
ed government graders. They
60 along the rows of tobacco
and place a U. S. Standard
grade on each pile. The Stablii-
cation Corporation, semi-gov-
ornamental agency set up to in
sure parity prices for tobacco,
has a price for each of these
grades. If the buyers bids fail
to come up to these prices the
Sterilization Corporation simply
takes over the tobacco, thus as
surfing what is computed to be
cost of production on the to-
bacco. In order to explain, the
grader will place a grade on a
pile of tobacco. That grade
calls for a $50 per hundred
price. If the buyers come along
and bid the pile in for $54 the
Sterilization Corporation takes
over and the farmer gets the
$50.
Duties Of Graders
Let us look at what the gov
eminent says is the duties Of
their graders:
"Under general supervision of
the Market Supervisor Chew
are responsible for the grading,
inspection, and certification of
lots of tobacco according to
United States Standards; for
explaining to farmers the adj
vantage and use of U. S. To-
bacco Standards and in sorting
and preparing tobacco for mar
ket. The Market Supervisor
serves as head grader on the
particular sale and analyses
the daily market and prepares
a report. 49,.
"The inspection of tobacco in
wolves the examination of lots to
determine it's type, group, quail
ity, color, length, and other
characteristics and on the basis
of these factors the tobacco is
placed in one of 80 or more
grades in accordance with the
United States Standards. The
determination of quality is bas-
ed on such characteristics:
clearness, soundness, smooth
ness, texture, maturity, solidity,
body, strength, width, grain,
finish and other elements
of quality as defined in the Of
fetal standards for the tobac-
CO."
Experienced Men
The Wallace market has the
advantage of long experience IN
its graders.

known in and out of the serv-
