N. 0. * ONE SALE MARKET THE BfcST Tta? editor of the Time* was pre sent 1b a crowd of people wbo know tobacco business recently when they were discussing markets. "Speaking of markets with double sales," said tne of the crowd, "It Is the most costly at all for the farmer." He was asked why by one near by and replied: "You see on a market that con ducts double aales each company has two buyers and the tobacco bought by both is delivered to the same stor. age house, where comparisons can be. and are, made of the cost of each pile of tobacco. Naturally the com* meat turns to the one buying the to bacco for the different grades the cheapest. And as each buyer wants to show his company that he Is a gooo buyer It develops Into a contest be tween the buyers as to who can buy the cheapest, with the result that the farmers lose In price." "That's a new angle on the ques tion," spoke another of the crowd, "so you would advise selling on the one sale markets?" "You bet I would the buyers havb nobody to compare with to sea who Is buyin gthe cheapest. You know," he continued. "I was on a neighbor ing market the past week and a ware houseman wag trying to convince me he was selling tobacco higher than Loulsburg. Stepping over to a pile I asked him what he sold that tobac co for and he said $34. I told him I could buy tobacco on his floor and sell it in Loulsburg and make money, that we sell that tobacco for $40 to $45." Inas much as it was tobacco mea talking this conversation might serva as a hint to some people that will save them money. There is at least a lot of logic and common sense rea soning in his opinion of the double sale market. WORKERS WIN PRIZES IN DAIRY CONTEST Raleigh, Oct. 4.?C. W.
