~~Y~rn The sales have been very heavy but jthe market was cleared up by Friday. Prices have been disappointing to many, yet Gorman's custom
ers have all been pleased, many telling us Gorman's Was the highest tales they had seen, and many had visited the other markets. If you have not'
been on our sales, come see oilr sales and we know you will send us your tobacco.
f Our Tuesday's sales averaged $20.80. Wednesday we averaged sl9.ol —in this sale we had a quantity of low grades, many going to the
. 1 stable. Experience, knowledge of values, and ability to back this counts. ;
c —A—--L4~ We advise you grading on your tips, leaving the thin colory tobacco to be sold last. They will be higher later QEL _ 'l."
