Walnut Cove, N. C.. Oct. it. JOM.
The tobacco sales on the local
market during this week have
been heavy and a marked
increase in the price is evident
on every sale. Monday was
perhaps the biggest day in the;
present week when about 25.-
()00 pounds on both floors sold
for close on to $3,259.00. averag
ing almost slo.oo per hundred.
Every farmer who sold here on
that dav went home highly
pleased. The quality of the
weed while a great deal better
than the offerings on previous
days was hardly on the average
of the usual article offered by
the Stokes county farmers and
yet it was a rare thing to find a
man who would not say it did
much better than expected. The
Export Company one of tie
biggest price boosting concerns
on the markets bought a great
volume of the tobacco while the
American and the Liggett-Myers
Co. secured their share of all the
grades. The Imperial, another
of the price boosters, will put a
buyer on the sales here this
week and it will not be surpris
ing any day to see th » prices on
the brighter grades soar to the
high water mark they reached
last year. However the growers
will make no mistake to place
their product on the market as
fast as they can get it in shape.
At least this is the opinion of!
practically all the experienced!
tobacconists.
At a convention held here
Friday afternoon the Democrats,
of Sauratown township nominat- i
ed for Road Commissioners.
Messrs. Flint Fulp, W. G. I
Dodson and Jno. W. Redman;
for Justices of the Peace, Messrs.
Winburn Paris. Thos. J. Coving-j
ton, Jos. N. Laslev: for Town
ship Constable, J. E. James.
A great manv from this place
attended the Primitive Baptist;
Association at Pine Ridge about
six miles southeast of here Sun-1
day. The crowd on Sunday j
owing to the inclement weather
conditions was not large but a
more quiet, peaceable congrega
tion on an occasion of this kind
would be hard to find. Scores of
visitors from nearly every;
section of the country where this
loyal and devout church has a
following were in attendance to
hear the masterful sermons so
earnestly delivered by their lead-'
ing Elders. It waa, a dav well
spent to mingle with these good,
people and to be in an atmosphere;
of such profound loyalty, un-i
selfishness and goodwill. It is •
learned that the next association,
will be held at Russell Creek. |

modate the grtac uuruuer or
students who are enrolling daily.
So far none have been denied
admittance nor will they be so
long as a seat can be found or
devised but unless an addition is
made to the building it will be
impossible to accommodate all
the children. It is to be hoped
that some move will be made to
enlarge the structure because the
school is by far ihe greatest
asset of the community and must
never be allowed logo backward.
Hon. Victor Bryant. of
' Durham, or.t? of the most
brilliant young orators in the
state, will address the people
here Thursday night on the
political issues of the day. Mr.
Bryant is an eloquent speaker,
full of humor and enthusiasm
and will doubtless be lizard by a
packed audience.
