Know The Facts and You Will Find It to
Your Advantage to
Sell Tobacco In Williamston
» _ ■_ -—_ • _
-v Many false report# have been circulated against the Williamston Tobacco Market in a selfish effort to
boost other markets. We earnestly ask every farmer to get the true facts before passing final judgment.
It is true that tobacco has been selling cheap on the Williamston market, but we are sure you'll agree
that tobacco has been selling cheap throughout the belt. Quality for quality, and on a fair average, the Wil
liamston Market has averaged just as much as any other market. Week in and week out, this market has sold
tobacco just as high as the "biggest" market in the world.
r * . . ;
While this market has abided by established codes, it is apparent that others have violated working
agreements. Truckers have combed the country, BUT SOMEBODY MUST PAY THEM. Some few big
farmers have been given favorable consideration on some other markets, but, Mr. Average Farmer, SOME
BODY HAS TO PAY THE BILL. „
Williamston tries to treat every man as a man, offering special privileges to none, but fair treatment
to all.
