This average was paid despite the fact a large amount of the offerings was of low and medium quality. Wednesday's sales brought the season's offerings to 25,342,310 lbs. which was sold for $4,050,590.40 at an average of $15.99. These figures include- the 9*740,9*6- pounds- sold prior to the marketing holiday for an average of $14.32 a pound. While the rush is over, and sales during the middle of the week be coming lighter, the competition on the market each day is just as keen and prices just as strong as at any time so far this season. Farmers will not experience any trouble from this time on in getting space on the market any day, but it is advisable to bring your tobacco to market before the weather becomes too cold to handle to an advantage. After this week farmers will be able to sell their tobacco the day it is brought to market. The records so far show that Farmville is "Your Best Tobacco Market", so bring the remainder of yoor tobacco to this market where you will know that the warehouse men wilt give it that careful atten tion that is so necessary in order to get the top price. Ark Royal Takes Nazi Ship Prize London, Nov. 9.?First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill told the House of Commons today that the aircraft carrier Ark Royal,- which Germany repeatedly claimed to have sunk, baa captured a valuable Nazi ship. He referred to the captured ship as a most valuable recent prize, in dicating it was a merchant ship. Churchill estimated that Germany has lost between two and four* sub marines every week since the war be gan. "What I told the house with much reserve -six weeks ago," he sail, "I can now repeat with- much more as surance?namely, that we are gain ing definite mastery over U-boat at tacks." He estimated Germany is complet ing two new U-boats each w*ek? "at a rate our expectation is that we must face tire, prospect of 169 U boats- being available - by January, less-whatever sinkings occur in the interval." I Nurses. Met Thurs.
