More than a thousand Virginia
members of . the association welcomed
. Oliver J. Sands, executive manager,
at enthusiastic mass meetings in Dan,
ville and Chatham last Saturday. Mr.
Sands told of, the good averages for
; which association tobacco has sold
". throughout the old belt from Aber
deen to Alta , Vista .andlaaidu We
have not yet .found , any - merchant,
'. banker, business man or farmer, who
would hesitate to say frankly that if
' it had not been for the association
the , present prices being paid on the
. warehouse floors would not be in ex
istence today. It is conceded by all
tobacco men that the present crop of
tobacco : will yield in ; the Old Belt
' around 250000,000 .pounds net, where-.
as' the last . year's crop' of t tobacco,
" which was considered a short crop
ran . around 157,000,000; pounds - and
averaged- $21.90 Therefore.' we think
