GRADE Y0UR PRODUCE Too know, we have been insisting ttst e*vi' farmer should look well jMar anything he mi^ht have on his' fsrai which could b& marketed and " luisd into money. We are especial ly stressing this subjeet just now tws? it is very necessary. Few, . B any. have a good crop of tobacco, ead as is always the., case, poor sell Ibw, consequently yob i not count much on your ^tobacco this year. Many are in debt, only for fertilizer but far ac carrled aver from the past r, hence the necessity Qf con jer viog every resource possible. Take your produce, potatoes, ap ples, turnips, etc. Many have some jet -ttese for sale, and when you go to market you grumble beca'js*"e the merchant does not pay you as much na he pays for these things shipped hi, but you lose sight of the fact when- these arc bought and shipped in they are graded, nicely selected and packed. Only yesterday a mer . chant toM as he was paying two I dollars a bushel for sweet potatoes I nhll.ll ll? wmii hnvinit ? iJlinned in. jHe said he would very much prefe." to buy these ?t home, but the farm just simply Would nat grade their -in-oduct'. Tou will find that you will git a murk better price' f?r' your produce If you would grade it, put all pota toes of the same size and color in -true bag, same a* to apples and other | -things. It will pay you to grade and keep rut the small, stringy ones 1 *md feed them to cattle, rathei-than to just dump them all in one sack and take a lesser price f : r the' lot. Try this rrrwl see What a difference h wjll make when you curry yaur | B lot to TYfarket. ' I i PRICES ADVANCING Rarely does vindication come .so Jiotm as to advising the farmer to Jiold his tobacco for better prices. We gave the advice with fear and tner^blin^, far had tobacco prices prone the other way we expect some "'^ot *>ar good farmer friends would tiave wanted to mob us. The follow ing we clipped frnm Greenville correspondence to the Daily News: ^ilJecording: to the report of Secretary X. W. Cobb tl\e local tobacco mprket reached its peak in price for the .season on yesterday with an average ?of $29.16 per hundred pounds. For the same period last season the ave rage was $23.82. Several growers averaged 50 cent and over '_'or the entire offering, and sales were made for more- than a dollar a pound." And if the farmers will market their tobacco in an, orderly way, not ' glutting the market but holding for fair prices they will receive a fair re-, ton for their tobacco, though the grades predominating in this County ?d* not warrant high jrices. We believe every live town we know of haa a Chamber of Commerce ?r ? Bmrd of Trade ? save Roxboro. weekly or monthly meeting, bring the subject up and discuss it, and see how many are willing . to cooperate with such an agent. Yes. and when you meet on Saturday afternoon (or your church meeting, while stand ing on the outside waiting for the preacher, see how "your friends fetfl' about this matter. " ? . Mr. James Buchanan Duke died 'at his home in SomerviHe, N. J., last Mr. Duke North Carolina, and Dur ham in particular, lost a most valued' citixen. He had amassed a great fortune, and this fortune he was turning to the blessings of humanity. o The trouble with these investigating committees and commissions is when once farmed there is no way to get rid of them. We fee it stated that the Salary Commission, appointed by Governor McLean, will not be dis ! solved, though it has made its re port. k " ' ? ?' .
