It has (ben the most successful and satisfactory sdiing week in the entire history of the market. Beginning on Monday with a heavy sslu that weighed,^ put 7^3,504 pounds and averaged $27.- 04 per hundre4, sales continued heavily thi^^|dL2£riday afternooft, Monday’s Sm was the heaviest ever e*perieijced by -the. Lumber- ton warc-hotftemen, with more dol lar* being paid out than have ever been jjai’i out in any other one iay. However, this mark did not last l(jng; 742 pounds were sold, establishing a neM' market record.. This day’s pale averaged I^MJ.0 pel” hundred. No official figures*are available for the week as a whole, but it is tBuwn that mora t.han pounds of tobacco were dispos^ i)f;'flnd it t.! knowrt that th^ aver age price paid for this " total amount' was well above $26.00 per hundred. The week’s sales bring the, Diarket's seasonal poundage past the 9,6(j0,00« pouhd’ figure, which is more than 25 per cent more tobacco than sold dur ing the same selling period last year. This is the third locctksir*' yt*r that I.«mb«rton’« tc^o«)L marlcet haj shown a steady grai^ th, week in and week out. iffuHng^ tho "p*«r prtfei OB nil tyP** tobacco advanced to new high level*. As the market closed on Friday, it was firm and stabili*ed. Re-openlng on Monday of this week, there wfl'imother sharp break of tobacco, and tfie last reports from the ware house floors state that*!ast week’8"hi|^ pricc.s Are pri*val*iit. Every^type of tobacco Ifc selling lyg'h . I» Lumberton. Probably the highest s lie made iBHt by E. Lo ^«ry, of-RoLn m County, who sold an entire load of tobac co for,,an average of 148.07 per hunAert. In thia N>ad were ’6M jpounds of fancy leaf that f)r.>ught flBM per hundred. However, even though Mr. Lowery was well pleased with his sale, he was no^ ^ more pleased than olhefs^ who ~ bj'ought comfnon tobacco to Lum- berton. and averaged f20.CO or less. Grade by grade, the quality ers sold their tobacco just as high aa Mr. Lowery, ami they were just as well satisfied. Althou. gh every day la«f week saw a capacity said of tobacco on the warehouse floors, there was little congestion or ^lelay in 'aelling;* there was no block. And as the market culosed for the week, all warthouge floOTs were cleared. The Lumlierton market is capable of handling nearly one mjllion poUnds of tbbacca daily, and with the new saTes s^reTH ‘ reeetlr- h|»«gra±ed this much .Jesf can be rf»fptJsed of without c»nfu»ion.. All * L’ mberton wafehoa3eme“ are' of the opiiHon that all tobaccos will be at their seasonal^ peak n'ext week, and'that growers will profit by selling every pound they have * ready for the market. ^ WHY DID THE BOMBER FAIL TO LOOK!
