Page Two THE PILOT, a Paper With Charaaer, Vasa, NowhCai^^ Friday, September 14. 1928 SELL EARLY, CARRY NOTHING OVER, ADVISES SAUNDERS (Continued from Page 1) prices that will be satisfactory.” Mr. Saunders, who has just returned from Georgia, where he had a phenomenal sale of leaf this season, says as a rule the crop is not so much to the acre as last year, but that the acre age is big, and the total volume of tobacco will be bigger than ever. And he also intimates that the market is more circumspect this year than for two or three years, owing to accumu lations on hand. That is why both he and Mr. Warren urge early mar keting, and the cleaning up of the crop before the holidays. Both doubt the wisdom of having any leaf left on the farms when the year is closed. Elsewhere in The Pilot today are fig ures from the United States Depart ment of Agriculture showing the in creased acreage in the whole bright belt, and also an increase in the Bur ley belt. North Carolina never plant ed such acreage as this year, and will make an unheard of crop. There may be those who will argue that Messrs. Saunders and Warren are talking now for the benefit of the early sales, but folks who have known Mr. Saunders through all the years he has been connected with the tobacco industry know that he is thoroughly sincere in every word he utters, and while Mr. Warren has not been so long in this section his ac quaintance has given him a highly enviable standing with all who know him. These men say they expect the volume of sales in Aberdeen this year to run up to the neighborhood of five or five and a half million pounds. It is probable that the increase in the size of the crop will offset any reduc- i tion in price if there is a reduction, and that the total amount of money i realized by the planters will be in ex-, cess of that of last year or any previ ous year. i 'anything, from a dollar up, will find their offerings accepted gladly, and for two reasons they ask all who can to share in carrying the work to its conclusion. The man who adds a dol lar to the building fund of this insti tution will feel that it is partly his own creation ,and that at any time he may have occasion to call on the hospital iii case of sickness he is sim ply going to his own. Contributions of all sizes are solicited, smaller ones from those whose means are limited, and bigger ones from all who can make the sum larger. Any bank in the county will receive contributions. Any of the prominent men in any of the villages will receive funds in large or small amounts and forward the money. Money may be sent directly to Jackson H. Boyd at Southern Pines, to Richard Tufts at Pinehurst, to the Page Trust Company at Aber deen or Carthage, to Moses McDonald at West End, to the Bank of Vass, or to any man who has a leading stand ing in any of the communities. It can be sent today or any day, but the sooner the better, for the quicker the fund is gathered the further the de velopment of the plans can go for ward, and the faster the hospital will be moving toward a place where it can begin its work of caring for the people. The drawings for the new building show an institution that will not only be a highly capable help toward mak ing life more agreeable in the county, but it will also be one of the attrac tive bits of new architecture that are steadily adding to Moore County^s progress and appearance. The sur roundings there at Pinehurst are well chosen, and when the plant is com pleted it will be one of the outstand ing buildings, as well as one of the most useful institutions of this part of the State.
