Raleieh. N. CJan. 14.' The to
bacco sales to date show an increase
in valu of 26' per cent or 6 cents
per, pound over last., year's average
pf $22.26 per. hundred weight. ' This
is largely due to a prospective crop
433,000,000 , pound production.
J. The poor grdes and low priced to
bacco appearing on the 'markets du-'
ring December, is" good indiction -
that the majority of the 1921 crop.
has been marketd. The 212 million
pounds sold to Jan, 1, ,1922 is only
76 per cent of the total production
of 294 million pounds . forecast by ,
the Departsments ' of Agriculture.
As this leaves 82 million pounds yet ,
to be sold, it would appear that this
estimate was high; the present pros
pects indicating a 260,000,000 pound
crop. The average price of sales
dul lng the season, ,12:1.31 shows
S60.220.27S worth of tobacco sold ,
at the end of the year and at that
price, the entire erop will be worth
$83,334,432. '
The 142 warehouses operating in
then' state during December sold
29,912,846 pounds of producers' to
bacco Or about 10 per cent of the
year's production, averaging 23.7Z
per hundred. This is about the same
per cent of the year's crop that was
sold in December 120 when 80 per
cent ot it hadbeenroarketed.
Fuquay Springs and Farmville
were the only markets repefrttog an
average price of aver SO cents during
the monlfc. The average on the nlna
