ALL THE TIME MOST OF THE NEWS : NUMBER 38 obacco pens Tuesday Three Warehouses Ready To Receive Golden Weed; More Floor Space OUTLOOK IS PROMISING Warehouses at Warrenton will swing wide their doors next Tuesday morning, September 22, to welcome the first of the 1936 crop Of tobacco- The leaf will be sought by the big companies and some Independents, and local warehousesmen are expecting a good opening. Merchants and warehousemen are particularly optimis.io oyer the opening of the market this season due to prices which have prevailed on the South Carolina, Georgia, and Eastern Carolina markets. The ' offering on the Eastern Carolina markers, which opened about two weeks ago, has averaged between 20 and 25 cents per pound and the tobacco which was grown in that section this year is not regarded as being of as fine a quality as that which has been grown in Warren and surrounding counfties. Warren county's tobacco crop is considered to be somewhat short this year but the quality1 of the weed is looked upon as being better than that of the average year. . The three warehouses here will be operated this year under practically the same management as last year, however, there have been some slight changes. The Centre warehouse which was operated last year by R- K. Carroll and T. H. Weldon will be run this year by Mr. Carroll, but he will be assisted in managing the business and running the sales by S. H. Pritchard of Littleton, who, it was stated, was a former buyer for the R. J- Reynolds uompany ana nas ueeu m wie wbacco business all his life- The Centre, which was partly wrecked by the cyclone and hail storm la few months ago, has been rebuilt in part and will have 4800 more feet of floor space than was (the case in years past. Farmers warehouse, which will again be operated by J. J- Tarwater, his son, Edward Tarwater, and CH. Hicks, has also added to its floor space this season by the removal of a partition which was left standing last year when several hundred feet of foor space wias added. Boyd's warehouse, which expanded a number of years ago sufficiently to take care of around 100,000 pounds of tobacco, will continue to operate under the management nf w N". Rovd and "Marse Ed'1 Rooker. Practically (the same buyers that were on the local market last year will bid for the weed here this year. However, there will be a new man to replace J- B. Massenburg, buyer for P. Lorillard, whose health will not permit him to follow sales Ithls season- It could not be learned here this week who will replace Mr. Massenburg. Other buyers and the companies they will represent are as follows: M- C- McGuire, Ameri can Tobacco co.; J. u. ?Jurweu, jsxport Tobacco Co.; J. G. Tarwater, R- J. Reynolds Tobacco Co-; Pete Reavis, Liggett & Myers Tobacco Co-; Si Hoskins, Imperial Tobacco Co.; A. W. Hail, Independent, and most likely others. Kenneth Cutts will return to Warrenton as auctioneer, and (the clip will be carried this year by D. W Pagg. W. H. Bobbitt Is to carry the book. With experienced men here and one of the oldest markets In the state, the prediction is freely made that Warrenton's prices will be as ?ocd as those paid anywhere, and the merchants and warehousemen join in the invitation to make Warrenion the selling and purchasing center for this section. Tobacco Prices Average Near $24 Price averages on tobacco markets in the "new bright" belt have ranged between $20 and $24 per hundred pounds during the first three days of this week as heavy offerings were reported on floors yesterday. Smithfield warehousemen reported an average of $2296 was paid for 172,320 pounds of weed which brought $39,544 after Wednesday's sale. (Continued on Page 6) ,
