Burley Referendum
(Continued from page 1)
and profitably produced in a num
ber of other states.
With marketing quotas the 1943
crop of tobacco brought an ave
rage of $42.00 per hundred pounds.
Without quotas another burden
some surplus will likely accumu

jthe price of tobacco. The County
j Committee wants each tobacco
i grower to feel that this is his pro
gram and that the outcome of the
j referendum will depend upon his
jvote. Do not depend upon your
neighbor to carry the referendum,
but take your neighbor to the polls
and vote your convictions on Sat
urday, October 23. It is requested
that you carry the envelope which
iyou receive this week with you to
the polls. It bears your farm ser
