cleaner*-, when they desire to purchase
any peanuts to advise the central corn
remittee the quantity and the price they
are willing to pay, we alto beg, beseech
and pray the cleaners, realizing that
their success is bound up at least in
the existence 6f the peanut producer,
not to buy peanuts from any source
except from holders or owners of pea
nuts who have written authority from
the central committee that these pea
nuts are permitted to be sold. The
duty of the central committee shall be
to allocate to each county and in turn
to each township the number of begs
of peanuts to be sold from that sec
tion .at stated intervals.
"I suggest that meetings be held in
every township in every peanut grow
ing county in North Carolina and Vir
ginia, that every man quit what is left
of his business and see that there is a
mammoth attendance at these meet
ings, "
