Leaf Averages
In East
15 to 20 Cents
Raleigh Price averages that
ranged from an estimated 15 to
20 cents a pound were realized
yesterday on the opening of the
14 markets of the North Carolina
new bright tobacco belt.
Offerings were generally of
poor quality and some grower
dissatisfaction was heard. First
sales brought low returns but
prices began to mount on better
quality leaf and later were said to
have brought satisfaction.
United States grades sold dur
ing morning hburs at higher av
erage prices than on opening day
last year, the State Department
of Agriculture reported.
For the last several days, to
bacco experts had advised farm
ers to grade their crop and sep
arate their greefi leaf, which was
reported in abundance through
out the belt.
Unseasonable weather also had
hurt the crop, expected to total
216,270,000 pounds, 49 per cent,
under last year. The 1939 crop
averaged $15.94 a hundred.
More than 600,000 pounds o # f
the flue cured weed was sold at
Rocky Mount at an unofficial
average of between 18 and 19
cents. Quality was not very good
but Sales Supervisor E. G. John
ston, Jr., said that most farmers
were pleased. Common type pre
dominated. Few tags were turn
ed to indicate grower dissatisfac
tion with the price offered.
Official figures were not avail
able on the Kinston market but a
reliable estimate placed sales at
1,300,000 pounds, for $17.75 or $lB
a hundred.
Tarboro reported 10 0,180
pounds sold for $20.36 a hundred.
Quality was good, no tags were
turned and there was little dam
aged tobacco on the floors. All
companies had buyers on the
market.
Wilson, considered the largest
market in the world, sold 1,397,-
960 pounds for $256,294.54 an of
ficial average of $18.33 a hun-
dred. Quality was medium and
no tags were turned.
Sales at Wendell totaled 256,-
086 pounds for $52,497.63, for an
average of $20.51. Quality was
fair.
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to express to our many
friends our sincere appreciation
for the sympathy and kindness
shown us during the illness and
death of our beloved husband and
