Our Tobacco Crop Last Year, 1919, Brought Five Million Dollars.
Our Tobacco Crop Four Years Ago, 1915, Brought One Million Dollars
THE HIGH PRICES OF TOBACCO LAST YEAR ENABLED ALMOST EVERYBODY TO GET
OUT OF DEBT AND TO HAVE SOME MONEY AHEAD. EVRYTHING LOOKED BRIGHT
AND LOVELY.
BUT WE HAD A SHOCK COMING!
HARDLY ENOUGH CORN AND FODDER WAS MADE IN THE COUNTY TO LAST UNTIL
CHRISTMAS.
FREIGHT TRAINS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO BRING IN HAY OATS, CORN AND SHIP
STUFF FAST ENOUGH SINCE THE FIRST OF THE YEAR TO SUPPLY THE NEEDS IN THE
COUNTY. THIS WILL HAVE TO KEEP UP UNTIL FALL. PRICES ON THESE FEEDSTUFFS
ARE VERY HIGH AND A LARGE PART OF IT IS BEING BOUGHT ON TIME.
Common Tobacco Sold High Last Year!
It is Believed Common Tobacco will Sell Cheap this Year!
WHERE WILL THE MAN BE WHO MAKES A CROP OF COMMON TOBACCO AND WHO
OWES A LARGE ACCOUNT. MORE COMMON TOBACCO IS MADE THAN ANY OTHER
KIND. HE WILL BE IN TROUBLE.

I fill con crib wl be a good slock absarter.

BUT WE HEAR VERY LITTLE SAID ABOUT THE MAKING OF A CORN CROP THIS YEAR
IN FACT, WE THINK LESS PREPARATIONS ARE BEING MADE FOR A CORN CROP THAN
EVER
" II
Plant a Big Corn Crop and Ferterlize it Well.

WE ARE NOT WRITING THIS TO SELL MORE GUANO. WE HAVE ALREADY SOLD MORE
OBERS, FISHBRAND, AND BAUGHS GUANO THAN IT LOOKS LIKE WE ARE GOING TO
BE ABLE TO GET, SHIPPED. WE ARE WRITING IT TO TRY AND SAVE MANY PEOPLE
FROM TROUBLE THIS FALL.
