Federal Inspection
To Be Under Clark
Federal tODacco inspection at
:he Warrenton market this sea
son will be under the super
vision of W. H. Clark.
Clark heads a group of U.
3. Department of Agriculture
Inspectors recently assigned
for the current sales season to
the Warrenton market by the
Tobacco Division of USDA's
Agricultural Marketing Ser
vice. ^
Other tobacco inspectors as
signed to the Warrenton mar-1
ket are C. J. Slzemore and R. D.
Currln.
Officials grades for flue
cured tobacco this season, ex
cept for the addition of three
grades and minor changes in
specifications for a few other
grades, will be the same as
last season, Clark said.
The grades were revised last
year to place more emphasis,
on maturity as a quality factor:
and to describe more accurate- !
ly the quality of every lot of
tobacco offered for inspection. |
In the revision, the number of!
grades was reduced from 1731
to 157. The three grades added
this season, X5KL, X5KF, and
X5KV, make the total number
160.
Under the 1935 Tobacco In
spection Act, growers of flue
cured tobacco first began us
ing the USDA Inspection ser
vices In 193C, Clark said. By
1940, the service had spread
to more than a third of the
auction markets in the flue
cured area that extends from
Virginia through the Carollnas
and Georgia Into northern Flor
ida.
In May 1942, a general refe
rendum was held and passed for
the remaining markets, but
qualified Inspectors weren't
available for all of the mar
kets until the 1946 season.
Beginning that season, all flue
cured markets In the five states
have had free and mandatory
Inspection service.
In addition to the free In-,
spectlon service, the Tobacco
Inspection Act provides two
closely related services. One Is
the market news service and
the other demonstrations for
farmers on the best way to pre
pare their tobacco for market.
The market news service,
Clark said, enables growers
and others to keep currently
Informed on tobacco marketing.
Daily market reports-prepared
In each flue-cured belt for news
media ? carry quotations on
grades representing around
three-fourths of the total dally
offerings, and review the high
lights of the day's sales. In
addition, weekly market reports
and press releases reviewing
the week's marketing activities
are Issued.
One of the most closely fol
lowed market reports accord
ing. to Clark, Is the dally price
report. It is sent to every auc
tion warehouse and posted con
spicuously where it may be
easily read by growers and
others interested in tobacco
marketing. These dally reports
show for the entire belt the
average price at which each
grade sold the preceding day and
the support price for the grade.
Traffic Cases Tried
In Recorder's Court
Warren County Recorder's
Court last Friday served al
most exclusively as a traffic
court with eleven of the twelve
cases tried being concerned
with violations of the motor
vehicle laws.
The only case tried other
than motor law violations was
one of assault In which Russell
Davis was sentenced to the
roads for 60 days. The sen
tence was suspended for one
year upon condition that the
defendant not violate any crim
inal laws of the state for the
period.
James Arnett Copeland pled
guilty to a charge of allowing
an unauthorized person to oper

sor for the Warrenton Market,

market Is looking for a good
year with sales as high as
they were last year when the
