JAIL EXPENSE IS REAL PROBLEM SAYS SHERIFF, • Entire Time of One Man Is Now Needed to Care for prisoners *IO MORE 'HIRING OUT' • Eighteen Now Lodged in Jail Here; Board Commissioners to Consider Problem at Next Meeting The housing and caring of prisoners in this county is fast becoming a prob lem of proportions. Day in and day out, numbers and numbers of relatives flock to the courthouse to visit their relatives, Sheriff Roebuck stated yes terday afternoon. The regular duties in caring for the prisoners require the entire time of one man, and the extra requests of visitors causes frequent in terruptions. For some time, regular jail hours have been observed, but even now the visiting continues to be a problem for the officers. Jail expense, that is, the feeding and caring for the prisoners, is amounting to many dollars monthly, adding to tl:e burden of (financing the county. No pay can be (Vpected in the hire of prisoners to other counties, and unless there is some way to occupy t.he in mates, the expense of handling them will gradually increase. It irunderstood that the matter will bo placed before the next meeting of the board of county commissioners, ac cc rding to unofficial reports. Just what the authorities will do in an effort to effect a better situation is a matter for speculation, but "something will have ta be done," Sheriff Roebuck stated yesterday afternoon while reviewing the jail records. Eighteen people are being held in the jail at the present time, some of whom are serving sentences of several months. Others are awaiting trial, but in either c%se the expense continues. • H.

Advertiser* Will Find Our Col. u«nn« a Latchkey to Over 1,600 Homes of Martin County ESTABLISHED 1898 PRICES ON SOME GRADES HIGHER THAN LAST YEAR | More Optimistic Spirit Pre-' vailing Among Farmers And Warehousemen Considering the Williams-- ton tobacco market has ranked at the top in the prices paid for the golden leaf this week. While sales have been light as a rule throughout the week, the price has averaged around 25 cents, reaching a high point Wednes day. The black and poorer grades of tobacco continue to hold down the price average, but aside from thcJse grades the market stands at the top. The light sales this week have been due to peanut digging which has kept many farmers from their grad ing and marketing operations. With the peanut harvesting about over* an increase in sales on the market is ex pected next week when good sales are expected. Prices paid for the better grades I this week art 1 said to be higher than I the prices paid for corresponding w t grades last season, causing a more jjiptimistic spirit to prevail among farmers and warehousemen. " With a'hard-working set of ware ! housemen and an open-hearted group of buyers, the Williamston market i*is offering advantages, unsurpassed | anywhere, to the farmers. The buy ers want tfobacco and they are paying the highest market price for it, a price, when compared carefully with i others, equals those paid on any mar ket in' the belt.

INCREASETIN PEANUT CROP J • fr-. Government's Latest Esti mate Indicates Crop of 849,000,000 Pounds -rjSl The latest estimate :of the production of peanuts in the j United States for this year is 849,- j 100,000 pounds aguinst 809,060,000 | pounds iti 1928. I While the estimate shows an In ' crease of about five per cent in pro duction over last year, it is slightly less than the 1927 crop. The imports of foreign peanuts for this season are shown to be 29,117,- 856 pounds against 61,000,130 pound* for the Beason ending October 31, 1928. The import figures are mostly for shelled and equal in fanners' stock to about twice these figures. A large per cent of the imports this season were before the increase in into effect February 19, 1929. It now appears, according to Win borne and Co., peanut dealers of Nor folk, that the carry over Nov. 1 may be about the same, or slightly larger than last year, but this, with the small estimated increase in produc tion, will not be equal to the probable , 1 reduction in imports the coming seas on.
