I Ever since the opening of the <3eerf:i? tobacco markets on August 3rd, when news of tfcfe pood prices prevailing there reached North Car olina, we have heard the question anxiously asked: Will prices be as -high in Person County too? We say jinxjonsly, and that's what we mean, for Person County farmers ARE anx ious. Upon the value :f this year's crop failure is "now considered very of <mr people. The possibility of a crop failure is now consider? very remote, but at that, low prices thi> -coming season will prove to be the j?traw tf*at will break the earners back, while good prices, above the cost of production, will provide an other lease on life. It gives us great pleasure to say that in cur opinion, prices will be good. Prices in Georgia opened very good and showed a gradual tendancy up ward as the season progressed. Nine teen marketr in the southern sec tion of the State, sold forty million pounds at an average of around 25 cents, the total value of the crop there iHaving been ten million dollars. In this connection we might say that tobacco as offered 'for sale in Geor gia is untied, ungraded; and in very many cases this season, entirely too in order to .^tand 'shipment. Alto, the. crop was decidedly on the heavy bodied . side. In fact, when the thin, eolfory types of cigarette -smckers were offered, prices were even hdgher than the average indi cates. We take this as a good pointr er for our farmers: as far is is within your power, make your crop thin and. eolory, suitable for cigar ettes. And this very requirement should prevent the planting, in fu ture, of tx> large a crc.p. A* sm*e as fate, Georgia is goinjx to ?-.ifier ? t?ex t year from too Jav^e a' <-r )> induced by over- ent.-hu.si? s m over V . -prices received thU year. . We are hoping, and helievrjig, that the goovi prices will continue, in .. eastern -Car :Jiria and .xhen in the I old belt. We se&- r.;. reason why they should not. The prospect i decitfodjy i;oVy.
