The tobacco market has had un precedented success in Wiison Up to five years ago the entire cyunty was given to cotton raising. There ivas more cotton handled here than in any town in Eastern Carolina. When the new industry began the people found themsel ves with no marketing facilities. .There- were very, few buyers, as none of the to bacco centers knew that there was such a market as the Wilson mar ket. But the advantages came. Just seven seasons ago there was opened a warehouse known as the Planter's Warehouse, operated by Anderson & Jones. This enterprising firm have since that time' operated this warehouse. During the present sum mer their floor capacity has been considerably increased until now the actual sale floor is 14,720 square feet. Their auctioneer, J. I. Thomason, is an adept in the 'art. He has been with the present firm for five years. He has sold tobacco for Mr. Jones 1 1 eleven years having been with him in Ralekdi. . CENTRE BRICK. ' This is a warehouse of which Wil son, county can well be proud.. It is trie largest in the Slate, having 26, 000 square feet devottd to the sale of toba'ceo.' The management has been in tne hands of Cozart and Washing ton, iis presents, occupants. . Many impr. .ements have been added to the conveniences during the last sea son Their auctioneer, Mr.; C. A. W ; 1 ham, is a lark, He has sold tob : for 23 years. It was Mr. Ban, an who did, the auctioneering wiiLi) Durham stood, second in the scale of North Carolina's tobacco markers. Every one who knows of tne beginning ot the tobacco indus try in this State has often heard of the selling qualities of Mr. C. A. W. Barham. WATSON warehouse! r This is the latest additioa ko Wil son warehouses. It has beqn built since the last season by Cooper, Watson atid Gibbons. She j is last but not least. Her sale space covers an area of 17,000 square feet. The firm) has drawn its men from Rich mond and Oxford. All have had many years in the warehouse busi ness. Their auctioneer, a member of the firm, Mr. J. N Gibbons, is a man who knows his business. He goes into a sale determined to make tobacco bring its worth and usually succeeds. The management: of 'his firm deserves much credit for their neat and well equipped arrangement. WOODARD WAREHOUSE. I This warehouse dates j second among Wilson's sale houses. . It was opened up during j the second season of the Wilson market. The house is at present operated by Woodard, Bobbin & Co. The house has. since its .opening been known j as the Woodard Warehouse, and there is many a farmer who knows that it does tne right thing by all of its cus tomers. During the last season sev eral new additions were made, until now she stands second in size, her sale space covering an area of 22, 000 square feet; Mr. J. M. Wilson, of Washington, D. C, does the sel ling act. Any farmer who will stand and watch him exert all his energy to get the buyers to go. higher and higher cannot help feeling that he is their friend, and that he is doing everything possible to make: their to bacco bring its full value. i . . " ; BUYERS. . . , Buyers are absolutely essential to a sale and we have this advantage also. The tobacco buyers j on the Wilson market are hustling men.
