|LORIS MART
WILL REMAIN
iOPEN TIL SEPT. FL

.Loris, September 3rd Dur.
ing the past Is selling days the
Loris Tobacco Market has sold
5,139, 500 pounds of tobacco for
$2,727, $3.50, an average of $53.O7
per hundred on total sales, or
$3.50 per hundred on actual
sales by growers, Sales Super
visor Fenton Miller stated today.
The overall quality of the past
week has been much lower than
that of any other week during
the 1851 marketing season.
Prices, however, have remained
steady for all grades. In spite of
the lower overall quality a large
number of farmers continued to
receive averages between $65 and
$40 per hundred on their sales.
During the first twenty-five
days of the 1850 marketing sea-
son the Loris Tobacco Market
had sold 276,626 less pounds than
Ihave been sold this year for an
average of S54.79 per hundred on
total sales, an average which was
SLIP per hundred higher than
this years. This years decrease
in average is accounted for by
the larger proportion of poor
quality tobacco in this years
crop as a result of the drought in
May and June.
AS a result of the meeting of
the Sales Committee of the
Bright Belt Warehousemen's AS
ISOLATION in Lumberton, N. c..
last Friday the Loris Tobacco
Market will remain open through
September 21st with all eight
companies continuing to be repre-
sented on the market. Farmers
are urged to get their tobacco to
market by the 21st of September
for it is at present uncertain
whether the market will be able
to remain open after that date.

st. Jerome's Creek on the bay side
is also producing some nice
catches. Have had no further re-

fishing will be good there this
week end after the effects of last

With the Camp Fire Of the
Jungle Cock being held at Camp

week end. undoubtedly nearby
streams will be crowded with
anglers. The State stocks fish
ahead Of the Camp Fire for the
express purpose of taking up the
overload, and a lot of fellows
usually try to beat the gun by
going up a day or two ahead. This
rarely works, as the stocked fish
are heavily fed just prior to stock

moment. We hope the blasting
that has been going on up on
the headwaters of Big Hunting

the three days of the Camp Fire,
as it raises hobs with the stream.
One lucky Marine, fishing of

This Week in the Garden

The azaleas are beginning to
bloom and there are many inter-
|esting azalea gardens in the Wash
ington area. 1t is always worth
while to visit those that have ex-
tensive collections so that the
color. form and habit of growth
may be noted. Also, there is a con-
siderable Towering range between
the various varieties, a factor to
be noted if a long season of bloom
is desired. New varieties with finer
bloom are being introduced and
the home gardener should not ig-
more them in making a selection.
Some of the stronger growers are
the deciduous varieties and since
they are later to bloom than the
evergreen varieties, a combination
of the two types may be desirable.

Life in the Country
Machinery Is Supposed to Sove Time;
But-A Horse Night Be Simpler

For the last few evenings, and
with the help Of John, the 4-year-
old. I have been getting ready to
plow the garden. But by the time
I'm ready, it probably will rain
again and I will have to wait until
the ground dries.
I know, of course, that tractors
have been a great help to Amer
ican agriculture. But sometimes
wonder If a big, gentle horse
wouldn't have been better for The
40 Acres. It seems that ! spend
about nine tenths of my time put
ting on and adjusting the various
implements that attach to my
tractor. and the other one tenth
Of the time doing the work.
OF course, not everyone has the
advantage I have. There are not
too many with a qualified helper
such as mine. He has a special
liking for machinery, and often
can take of bolts with his bare
hands that I can't manage with a
wrench.
Our working arrangement is
something like this:
I open the tool box and select
a wrench that will fit a particular
nut. I loosen the nut and lay
down the wrench. When / start
to pick it up again, it isn't there.
I ask John for it and am told that,
he needs it just now and that,
anyway, he can't remember where
he put it.
I get another wrench and the
same thing happens. Then look
In the tool box to see if happen
to have another spare. I find,
however, that John has been there,
too, and all Of the tools are scat
tered about over the ground.
I start looking. I find a few
tools, put them back in the box
and start all over again. This
time I am careful and put the
tool box up on the tractor seat
where I think John can't reach
it. I just don't know, for when
my back is turned he has it down
again and is merrily turning an
imaginary bolt over at the wood
pile.
Finally, in a matter of hours,
John and I get the plows on the
tractor. By now it is dark and
we go into the house. John i'm
