Raleigh, Jan. 19. The December
crop estimates released by the U. S.
Bureau of Crop Estimates show
some very interesting comparisons in
North Carolina's 1920 tobacco crop.
The production of 384,120,000
pounds showed a 58,812,000 pound
increase compared with the revised
estimates for the 1919 crop of 325,-
248,000 pounds. The value of the
1920 crop at December 1st price as
basis places this state $27,062,000
ahead of all others, notwithstanding
the remarkable decline in the mar
ket prices.
A year ago the season's producers'
sales amounted to 295,963,922
pounds, at an average price of $51.63
per 100. The same period in 1920
showed 284,616,901 pounds or about
80 per cent sold of the 1920 crop.
The 1920 tobacco has averaged
100 less than
about 20
per cent of the crop to be marketed,
though many of the smaller markets
have closed." " The average prices dur
ing the season were as follows:
July $21.35, August $26.42, both
of the South Carolina belt; Septem
ber $13.21, October $24.20, Novem
ber $24.71, December $17.27. There
was sold on the Wilson market to
January 1, 1921, 33,398,382 pounds
at an average of $22.15. The Winston-Salem
market sold 28,443,216
pounds at $23.37 per 100.
During December there were 55,
622,063 pounds sold at an average
of $17.27 per 100, as compared withJ
32,474,298 at $53.94 the year pre
vious. The total sales for the month
including resales were 61,511,279
pounds. The Wilson market showed
the heaviest sales during the month
averaging $17.28 per 100 pounds.
J lie markets paying the highest
prices during December were: Meb-
ane $29.32, Roxboro $27.86, Apex
827.18, Burlington $22.42, and Dur
ham $21.19. The lowest prices paid
on four markets during the month
were less than cents per pound.
The total present season's produc
tion of tobacco in the United- States
was 1,508,064,000 pounds compared
with 1.454,725,000 pounds in 1919.
The 1,894,400 acres showed a reduc
iton from 1919 of 16,400 acres. The
iotal value of the crop was $318,-
359;000. The smaller crop of 1919
cold for $566,709,000 or 54 per cent
more than the 1920 crop. The re
ported large stocKs Drought over
from a year ago means that a re

believed that the local dental exami

The lateness of the season proba
