Fire Pevention Day
I
Gov. Lock Craig has set apart
the 9th of October as Fire Pre
vention Day through the State.
In this proclamation he asks that
the schools, colleges, mayors,
urge the necessity of looking af -
ter the condition of premises in
every community. There are cer
tain laws which have been enact
ed for fire prevention, and these
ars called to the attention of the
people. Careless lighting of fires
with kerosene and oilier inflama
ble material causes great loss of
life and property every year in
North Carolina If people would
only think and act with caution,
this loss would be reduced large
ly. Children need to be taught
jwhat to do and what not to do,
iand the teachers in the schools
j should pay especial attention to
Ithe proper instruction along this
line. Don't forget that October
i Qth is Fire Prevention Day.

I The Export Tobacco Company
I went uil the market
'prices at once felt the effect.
I There were around 300,000 lbs on
! the market .and averaged 11.1-2
I cents. Wilson Times, Sep 1..
A representative of the Export
Leaf Co., has been on this Mark
et since opening day, and farm
ers here did not have to wait until
the 28th for the market to show
an average of 11 1-2 cents. As
an instance of the hig prices giv
en here, the Edwa-ds Brothers,
of Winston-Salem, came here and
found the market too high and
so left for a lower one, where
they could purchase for their
firm. Suppose they went over to
Greenville. 1
Prices On Leaf And
Tips Get Higher.
Since our last article on tobac
co in your paper, we have sold
wrappers for 20c and 50c, and
the market has advanced from
$2.00 to $5.00 on colory grades of
tips and leafs.
Prices on good tobacco are high
er, and we want to sell a load for
you as Martin County is noted
for good tobacco, and it sells
higher on our market.
Cume to see us and we will
send you home pleased.
