bales stored by Chatham, Lee and

now it will sell at 10 to 10 1-2 cents.

What about wheat reduction in 1j6«
»county ? At present, the idea seems to
be that the government will require a
reduction of e’ght per cent below the
average of the past five years. And
also, it seems, that the reduction will
be paid for as In the case of cotton,
However, it is likely that as a result
of the processing tax and the conse
quent increase in the price of flour,
more farmers will grow wheat here
than before, as tlie processing tax
does not apply to wheat grown for
one’s own use or that of his employ
«N or tenants. The proceeding tax
adds |1.38 to the price of a barrel of
flour. A man who grows end uses his
own wheat can have it manufactured
at the local mill without paying any
tax. This no doubt will lead to mOM
farmers growing their own wheat hi
this section.' i- S'
The Georgia tobacco markets open
ed for the season last Tuesday. At
some of the markets the average prices
pa:d were low while it is stated in the
press dispatches that the prices that
prevailed at Douglas were one hun
dred per cent more than last year. In
some sections of that state- protests
were sent from the fanners to Presi
dent Roosevelt hoping that he can do
something to relieve the situation. The
average for low grades at Douglas
was reported around ' twelve cents a
pound, with prices ranging from six
■to twenty-five cents for better grades.
Since the recent rains it looks as if
the biggest tobacco crop ever raised
in this section will be gathered by the
planters this season. We noticed in
xomb fields in the, Broadway section
Wednesday that almost half of the
-crop had been- gathered. Some of ,ti»p
tobacco has taken a new start to grow
and will be lata in ripening.
