2,f»70,M>4 pounds fit an average oi

in that section and they are in Man

ties. Last year the average of these
•markets was $23.85, more than three
times this year but since the first of
August pricey on these same maCKet
have gone up. Perhaps the pnee.-
haven't improved a- much a« the
grades of the weed have. That sold
in July was as a whole ve»y common.
The outlook is good for good tobacco

for poor grades.
