Correction Made In Early ? j Report That Fairmont ^ Had Failed To Show Highest Average Fairmont is entering its 1938 tobacco season with satisfaction and confidence. Knowing the abbilities of the warehousemen on this market and their trained forces and having the coperation of all the business and professional men in town, this toj bacco market is in a position to j promise growers of the golden leaf every aid in bringing them the price for their tobacco that I they expect and deserve. Situated there are seven large warehouses, every one of them well lighted and modern in every respect. The mobined floor reaches an aggregate of ten bourn market for the past seven years. They will be assisted by Robert. Pinnix in the office, Jack Harris, Auctioneer, D. A. Floyd and Leo McPherson. This firm makes an ideal combination to give the farmers the best in every way. Mr. George A. Myers, who has been on this market since it was started, will again operate the Myers Warehouse assisted by his son, Geo. A. Myers, Jr. Mr. Glen Richards, sales supervisor II last year and rormeriy wun neyI nolds Tobacco Co., will assist in I running the sale. Mr. Geo. Finch I will auctioneer and J. E. McI Lennon will be floor manager. I Mr. Myers operated the first I house in Chadbourn and has I stayed here every year because he thinks that this is a fine town and he knows that Chadbourn is a top notch tobacco market. Chadbourn sold . about four and one half million pounds last year and expects to sell at | least six this year. All five of the big companies have buyers on this market, and several independent companies. Most of the j same buyers that were here last J year will be here again and we believe that they are as good a set as will be found on any market. 3use n B.'j i ;or?e A. Myers.

With such f splendid facilities for handling i the 1938 crop of tobacco, Fair-1 o mont, "The Old Reliable" will; e again lead all Border Belt to- J bacco markets in opunds, prices and the highest average. |d Fairmont has three large re- f drying plants, with a redrying capacity of a million and a r half pounds of tobacco every 21 d hours. High prices are the main in- S ducement fort he grower to sell ]. his tobacco on any market and Fairmont year after year leads all the markets in the belt in * prices obtained for her tobacco. 1' Last year Fairmont led the mar- i kets of the belt again in average price with an average cf j $23.11. The reputation of this a market for fine tobacco, which naturally arose from the prom- j inence of its location in a qual- j ity producing area, has led farmers into the. habit of bringing ' the best portions of their crop to r , Fairmont for sale, and the consistently good prices received * for their crops has enabled Fair- 1 month to lead in average year I after year. | Revised reports some time ago', corrected by W. H. Rhodes, as1 sociate statistician for FederalState Crop Reporting Service, ' 1 show that once again Fairmont r led all Border Belt tobacco mar- v kets in 1937 with an average 1 1 price of $23.11 per 100 pounds. 1 The first statement made in t the Tobacco warehouse sales re- , 1 port for last season gave credit to Chadbourn for paying the highest average price. It was learned later on a second check up that Chadbourn had averaged $21.41 per hundred pounds, thus falling a few dollars short of the Fairmont average. This previously made statement was 1 quickly withdrawn and Mr. Rhodes notified C. B. Stafford, sales supervisor here, that he had issued an authorized story to the Associated Press, releasing the corrected report. The ; correction appeared in the form of a news story and was publish-1 ed in the State press, as follows: j "Fairmont led all tobacco markets in the South Carolina ! Belt last season, averaging $23.11 per hundred pounds for all tobacco sold, whereas, it was erroneously stated that Chadbourn led the belt, the Federal-State Crop Reporting Service announced today. "It was previously stated that Chadbourn averaged $24.05 per hundred pounds for 4,556,488 I pounds sold, but corrected re| ports show the market averaged $21.41. The average price paid for all tobacco sold on the South Carolina belt was $22.18 for 100,542,336 pounds sold." Shallotte Point The many friends of R. H.
