(teDorted by E. K. Vietor ft Co., Leaf Tobaccr Strips. Stems and Scraps.) We have had another week of heavy receipts and slowly advancing prices for almost all grades of tobac co. Particularly, sun-cured tobaccos seem to be in strong demand and prices towards the close of the week were about 50c. per hundred higher than they opened. Some little fired tobacco was being offered and was sold at satisfactory prices to the farmersSofaiLjtheQualityoJt crop is somewhat disapinllngas everybody had expected a more uni form tobacco with better body. Al though we had a heavy rain this week the weather has turned cold and dry and we do not look for quite as full Teceipts next week as we had this. CHARLESTON SUPPLIES. D. 8.0. R. Sides, packed.

At Richmond, about 500,000 pounds was sold. The average for all goods disposed of was $8.70 per 100 pounds, the top-notch figures be ing $31.50. At Lynchburg, the prices were very satisfactory. In fact all common and medium grades were-selling high. The sales on the Farmville market were not so large the past week, but the prices were high on all grades. Although the finer grades of wrap pers have not as yet made their ap pearance on the Bedford City market, those of inferior quality have been bringing $15 per 100. The prices on lugs still continues very high, with a steady demand. The number of buy ers for foreign shipment at this mar ket, besides the local manufacturers, is the secret of success in disposing of the leaf on such advantageous terms to the grower. There was an increase of offerings of loose leaf on the Petersburg mar ket the past week, the sales for the current week amounting to 187,730 pounds. The general quality of the hew crop is better than for several years past. The receipts were very good on the Danville market, but were cut some what short by the harsh, cold weath er. Prices were firm under strong competition from the buyers. Larger quantities, and better grades have been the rule this season on the South Boston market, and the past week was no exception to the rule. J. M. BELL. The Memphis Commercial-Appeal has published its annual forecast of the cotton production for 1911, esti mating the field growth at 15,045,000 bales. This is exclusive of linters se cured at cotton oil mlhs and what -are termed as "re-packs," I have had your paper on trial for ten weeks and wo can not afford to do without it; it is worth many times the price. A. W. Johnson, Taylorsville, N. C. tag OtixaXXaa The first price of a cream separator Is no basis for figuring its cost. Suppose you paid $2 for a pair vi.

Which was the better buy ? 53SiO The same nrinrinlft Vmlrta trnnA n cream separator buying. You may pay a low price at the start-but such a separator will need frequent repairing and won't last. The cost per year will be double that of a good separator. IHC Cream Harvesters Dairymaid and Bluebell are famous for their durability. They skim close and run easy for years.
