Barn Door. ; ' . - . Oxford Ledger: There -is one practice that" has become, almost hni- versal mthis,tcmtory indulged in by the warehousemen in whicri. it seems from sundry complaints we hear from many farmers reform is desirable. It is a practice which we suppose it would not be very r diffi cult to correct.:. This needed reform is in the . mattei of warehousemen sending men direct to the barn "door to buy the' .farmers' tobacco instead of waiting for it: to come to, market to be sold direct on its merits on the floor.:, . -, 1 ;,, -' v - -- & This custom; of buying in the country hai been going on for sever al years, though' 'at the du tset of the warehouse business, and for. many years thereafter, thisi, was- not the. case,; nor islt the, case: on some mar kets now for the ; warehousemen to purchase any tobacco; in;-tte. 'cbun try. ; : " ' If all the tobacco" was sold by. the producer on .the warehouse floor more uniformity - of price ; to the 'far mer would prevail and he would- be the: gainer, besides' ic-. would be more satsfactory to all interested in. the ........... .. i... . - i w i.:. ..... ... ... . . a - - aggregate. .One reason that it is ob- jectiorfable is that the same . tobacco the dealers buy of the farmer at the barn door is put on the floor and the price is pushed to a higher; pries 'by said buyer than the farmer w ho did not sell '.in;'thecountrydnd'pat'his tobacco ou the floor is able to get for his sold the same day, and this nat urall v creates,dissatisf action. ; - .'We. think KXt rmuch complaint would. i)e.hnshe4np .if tobacco was aain sold in eyery . instance-f direct by vthe farmer i on the warehouse floor.

We throw out these sufferestions for what they are .worth;" believing at the same time that it would be to the interest of all to bring about a reform in this matter. Wouldit not be well for the warehousemen in this territory ; to take this matter up , and act as wisdom and good business tact suggests by a meeting of some cen tral point, say Okford or Henderson? Is it . not a matter o considerablef im portance for all the warehousemen in: this part of the State? Would not tnis result m: tne estaonsnment oi thorough uniformity of prices be for the good of the, farmers as well as the warehousemeri : and buyers as tobacco would then sell strictly on its merits, as is 1 the case oh' the Dan ville -.market, the largest .in "the world?.
