have no grievance against
my wife. I am sure Of it.
It's Just that they are all
preoccupied with their own
families. And Pauline always
suspects things-for example,
that my sisters agreed to
sabotage one of her dinner
parties by coming late. Ac-
tually. they both had car
trouble on their way.
I love my sisters and
brothers, but frankly my wife
and children are all the fam
lily 1 need. I don't see any
sense in making a fuss about
this.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
The only child enjoys the
privilege of being the center
of attention in his home.
When he imagines having
sisters and brothers he pic
lures a wider audience, with
out giving up his prime i'm
portance,
The fact that Pauline feels
excluded" when she is with
her husbands family suggests
to us that she is indulging in
this childish dream. Her huS-
band, who is in a fairly good
position to know. denies there
is any family antagonism and
finds her suspicious not. real

Demand For
Middle Grades.
Lugs Continues
By JOHN STICK

A modern day record appeared
ir the making as tobacco auctions
on the Farmville Market con-
tinued strong Thursday an
opening week average in excess
Of $40 per hundredWeight.
A check through existing re-
cords back through 1945 failed
to uncover any previous opening
week with prices that high. The
closest came with the record
setting money crop of 1856 when
the first week average was
S39.69.
Although this weeks volume
is expected to be down over
last years 8l6,293 pounds Of
fire-cured and sun-cured leaf for
the 1859 first week, the general
average should exceed last years
$37.79 by as much as 50 or more.
Warehousemen estimated the
1860 first week poundage at about
100000 pounds, although an ac-
curate figure would not be avail
liable until the marketWide cal
culations are made following
Thursdays final sale of opening
week.
Fine Start
Mondays opening day dark
fired sales amounted to 1856, 1874
pounds averaging S4042. Tues
day. auctions totalled 12l,778
pounds with the average climb
ing to Sal .33
With 4 1856 pounds of sun-cured
added, the Farmville opening day
roundage was 100. 1870 and grow
ers earned 6.447 start
that had growers grinning wide
ly.
The dark-fired crop is pre-
dominantly of northumberland
good and fair leaf, with good
sprinkling Of fine leaf This is
producing grades in the 2. 3 and
quality brackets. A year ago,
much Of the leaf was in the IS
quality bracket the low
leaf grades.
The marketings so far also
show a 1860 crop that is pre-
dominartly b or heavy-leafed
tobacco. So far there has been
only a sprinkllng of the C. or
thin leaf. While, thin leaf has
higher grade pegs. it has not
| brought prices in excess of the
pegs as has the heavy, brown
/ leaf.
Smaller Leaf
| Finally. the new crop is
smaller Of leaf resulting, most
| observers say. from the inter-
/ militant dry periods during the
\ growing season The favorable
\ part. however, is that what is

tobacco is rarity this season.
