Georgia Tobacco
* Markets To Open
Season Thursday
— ♦
Price Average Expected To
Exceed $38.06 Figure
Of Last Year
The Georgia-Florida flue-cured
tobacco markets are opening the
season on Thursday of this week
with higher prices predicted de
spite spotty quality. Last year 'the
belt sold 156,190,825 pounds for an
average price of $38.06. The loan
price has been increased to $39.90
per hundred, but some observers
are of the opinion that the price
Will hold to a figure well above
tfle stabilization point since the
crop this year is estimated to be
about 53,000,000 pounds under the
1947 production.
The Georgia-Florida crop was
produced mostly under adverse
growing conditions. In the begin
ning there was an abundance of
healthy plants and a large num
ber of farmers set out tobacco ear
lier than usual. The crop was off
to a good start, but early in the
growing stage a prolonged period
of dry weather set in. This result
ed in many of the plantings not
being able to fully utilize their
fertilizer and also caused the to
bacco to ripen prematurely. The
overall picture, judging from leaf
already harvested and cured, por
trays a spotty crop. The tobacco
in some sections is not up to ex
pectations, notwithstanding large
proportions of good qualities.
Primings and lugs are cleaner, be
ing somewhat freer of sand than
usual. There is still a large
amount of tobacco in the fields. At
the present time heavy harvesting
and curing is in progress and this
will continue well into next
month. Regular showers will
help these remaining crops, but
heavy rains would be more detri
mental than beneficial.

90 percent of the June 15th parity

rate for each grade is 4 cents per

SUBSIDING
Although they have been '(
reported in several districts in I
this county, army worms are s
believed to be withdrawing F
from their lines of attack on i
pastures, peanuts, soy beans v
and corn. The pest was at- 1
tacked with poison in several «
sections, and in others the >
worm is disappearing into

Board Accepts Deep Well
At Meeting Last Thursday
-- » ■
Although it does not corhe up to i
expectations, a new deep well was '
accepted by the town commission
ers in special session here lust
Thursday evening.
Appearing before the meeting,
Engineer Henry Rovers and Re
presentative Butler of the drilling
company, explained that a flow
of 150 gallons per minute is cer
tain, with the possibility that the
flow will be increased to 200 or
more within six or eight -months.
When drilling operations were
first started, many feet of fine
water-bearing sand were found
and approved by federal-state ge
ologists. The drilling went down
to about 4§0 feet and a potential
flow of between 400 and 500 gal
lons was predicted. The water
was tested and the salt content
ran over 100 parts per million.
While the salt content was hardly
one-fourth the amount reported
in water pumped from the court
house well, it was rejected, and
about 100 feet were filled in, lowf
ering the quantity?
The drilling company repre
sentative explained that he was
willing to move to another site,
possibly a mile or a mile and one
half out on the Washington Road
I
and sink another well in accord
ance with the terms of the con
tract. It was agreed that the town
should pay $6.50 for a well sup
plying 250 gallons of water per
minute. Engineer Rivers explain
ed that the town could accept the
well on the basis of $26 per gallon
flow or about $3,900, or direct the
company to start a new well. In
vestigating other factors, the
board learned that it would cost
more than $15,000 to connect a
well a mile or more from town
with the present water system,
that the present well could be
placed in operation for possibly
$7,500.
At the present time, the town is
pimping 125 gallons of water
from each of the two wells at Ske
warkey. The new well at the
municipal water plant will in
crease the supply to 400 gallons.
The old wells at the water plant
are about shot, but it is still pos
sible to get about 80 gallons from
each of the three. With the new
well, it will be possible to meet
current needs without using salt
water from the courthouse well.
During recent days, as many as
sixty and seventy-five thousand
gallons of water have been used
daily from the courthouse well.

Beloved Neiftlihor Had
Been In Declining Health
For Alioiit a Year
-,
I Mrs. Myrtle Woolard Brown,
member of a family that pioneer
ed the early manufacture of farm
implements, died at the home of
| her niece, Mi s. Robert L. Coburn,
| on South Biggs Street here last
, Friday morning at 9:05 o’clock,
I the end corning peacefully in her
I sleep after intense suffering over
i a period of almost a year. Mrs.
| Brown underwent an operation in
!a Richmond hospital about three
i months ago, and her condition had
been serious since that time. How
j ever, with a determined spirit and
a will to live she continued to visit
briefly with her neighbors and
other friends until just a short
time ago.
Mrs. Brown was born near Wil
I liamston 54 years ago on Septem
j her 28, 1894, the daughter of the
; late Joseph L. and Augusta Leg
i gett Woolard. When a young girl
\ she located with her family in
Williamston where she attended
school and quickly took an active
part in the civic affairs of the
community. She was one of the
early presidents of the Williams
ton Woman’s Club, doing a noble
work for society as a neighbor and
friend of all. She patiently nurs
ed the sick, cared for the helpless
and devoted her life in unselfish
service for others. Her thought
fulness of others and her deeds of
mercy and kindness were extend
ed into the homes of both the
humble and the well-to-do and
exemplified a true Christian char
acter. In her great devotion and
in her untiring work in the ser
vice cf family and many friends,
she found peace and contentment.
Hers was a noble life well lived.
She enjoyed life because she put
much into life, asking little for
herself and giving freely to others.
Her father manufactured the
first tobacco barn flues ever made
in this county, and pioneered the
manufacture of the then revolu
tionary harrow bearing his name.
The manufacturing plant was op
erated at the old country home in
Bear Grass Township for a num
ber of years and later in Wil
liamston.
She was married in 1914 to
David Brown of Jamesville and
Williamston. He died during the
first influenza epidemic in De
cember, 1918.

Two Minor Road
Wrecks Reported
j In County Friday
Two Persons Painfully Cut
j But Not Seriously Hurt j
Near Town Limits
I Two persons were painfully cut
j but believed not seriously hurt in
, one of two motor vehicle accidents
reported on the highways in this
county last Friday. Incidentally, I
the second highway fatality in the ]
county this year was recorded |
earlier in the week when Isaac I
Nichols, aged Williams Township j
colored citizen, died of injuries
received in a bicycle-auto acci
dent between Williamston and
Jamesville on July 5.
The lirst of the two Friday ac
cidents was reported by Patrol
man Mike Powers that morning
about 7:45 o'clock when a pick
up truck driven by Warren B.
Cherry of Plymouth and an oil
truck driven by Seth Bailey of
Bear Grass figured in a collision
on the Williamston-Jamesville
highway just beyond Gardner's
Creek, causing about $125 dam
age. Patrolman Powers, making
the investigation, said that both
vehicles were traveling toward
Jamesville, that Bailey gave a sig
nal for a left turn. Thinking Bail
ey was going to stop on the left
shoulder, Cherry started to pass
on the right. It soon developed
that Bailey gave the signal for a
left turn so he could swing around
and (urn off the highway to the
right. Just as Cherry was off
against the Bailey vehicle, his
pick-up truck was struck in the
side. No one was hurt and the
patrolman said that Bailey accept
ed the damages.
Driving his pick-up truck out on
the Washington highway about
6:30 o’clock Friday evening, G. T.
Gardner declared to Officer Chas,
R. Moore that someone forced him
off the road and into a transform
er light pole just this side of Sun
ny Side Inn. The driver was
painfully cut on the knee and face
and Mrs. Gardner, riding with
him, receveid an eiglit-stitch gash
nospmiitntyweS*?RrT?Tmr
tinue to their home on the rail
road just off South Smith wick
Street. Damage to the truck was
estimated at $50 and it was esti
mated that $100 damage was done
to the pole and electric system.
Lights in that section, including
power for the town’s two Skewar
key water pumps, were out for
more than one and one-half hours
or until power company forces
were able to plant a new pole and
put the wires and transformer on
it.

cipal Swimming pool has lagged
to the point where a new and lim
ited schedule may have to be ar
ranged by the latter part of the
week, it was announced yester
day by Recreational Director
Stuart Maynard.
Mr. Maynard said that for the
past ten days the pool has been
operating at a loss and in view of
the fact that the town no longer
underwrites the deficiency in re
ceipts expenses will have to be
reduced The new schedule will
likely leave the pool open only
an Mondays, Wednesdays, Satur
days and Sundays.

Johnnie Bryant
Seriously Shot
Sunday Morning
-o
Two Loads of Cun Shot Fir
ed Into Mis Bark By Bill
Winbitsh, Colored
Johnnie Bryant, colored tenant
on the Everett farn. in Poplar
Point Township, was seriously
shot by Bill Winbush, another col
ored tenant on the same farm,
about 1:00 o’clock iast Sunday
morning, the shooting climaxing
an argument over a 20-cent debt
created in a "friendly’’ card game.
Both of the men were keeping
watch at a tobacco barn, and en
gaged in a card game to pass the
time. Winbush got into debt to
Bryant in the sum of 20 cents, it
was reported, and a rather heated
argument followed. Winbush left
the barn and went to hks home
about one-half mile away and re
turned with his single barrel shot
gun and a pocketful of-shells Just
what happened immediately upon
his return could not be learned,
but Bryant elected to desert the
bai n. He had traveled only about
twenty-live yards when Winbush
cracked down on him, sending the
greater part of a load of shot into
Bryant's neck. Bryant continued
to move away but he was not fast
enough to escape a second blast.
The victim was removed to the
local hospital where his condition
was described as serious. How
ever, he is expected to recover if
there are no complications.
While other tenants were get
ting Bryant to the hospital, Win
bush started walking to town to
surrender. He had walked hard
ly a mile before he called some
one to bring him to town. Local
police started to draw their arms
when Winbush got out of the car
with the gun in one hand and sev
eral shells in the other.
Bryant, who was the target of
a load of gun shot about a year
ago as a result of a family quar
rel, was said to have been drink
ing, that possibly he and Winbush
had had some trouble under simi
were said to have worked side b
side in the fields and were con
sidered to be veiy good friends.
Winbush is being held in th
county jail pending the outeom
of Bryant’s condition.
Justice Jolmsou
Hears Five Cases
—•—
Justice R. T. Johnson handled
live cases in his court during the
past lew days, several of them be
ing of the complicated domestic
type.
Counter warrants were drawn
by R. B. Speller and his wife, Lu
rindy Speller, the court finding
the husband not guilty and the
wife guilty of disorderly conduct.
While it was apparent the wife
provoked the attack, there was
enough evidence offered to sup
port a second woman angle. The
justice first decided to send the
-ase against the wife to the coun
ty court for a final decision, but
he altered his decision and impos
'd a $10 fine on the defendant
when it was pointed out the wo
man had three small children at
home.
The wife defendant was with
out witnesses.
The case in which Willie Wilson
was charged with an assault when
the prosecution witness turned

ipen court. Wilson was adjudged
lot guilty and Eunice Oden, book-7
-'d as the prosecuting witness, was
equired to pay the $6.50 costs. I
she turned to the defendant and
le advanced the money to pay the
•osts.
Charged with being chunk and
iisorderly, Dora Williams, young
■olored girl, was sentenced to jail
or JO days, the court suspending

Property Valuation Of
$3,240.243.00
Meeting in special session last
Thursday evening, Williamston's
commissioners tentatively adopt
ed a budget for the.current fiscal
year, cal'ing fur retention of the
old $1! per $100 valuation tax rati
and expenditures in the sum ol
$133,953.46.
The budget is based mainly oi
the general tax levy which is ex
pected to raise $04,000.00 on an as
sessed property valuation of $3,
240,243.00. Last year the valua
tion was $3,039,229.00, the tota
this year showing an increase ol
slightly more than $200,000. The
next big source of income is watei
sales which are estimated to bring
in to the treasury approximately
$31,000. The third biggest income
item is anticipated profits fron
legal liquor sales and beer-wine
taxes which are estimated at $15,
000. Other income, running aboul
$1,000 or less, is anticipated fron
paving assessments, mayor’i
court rentals, penalties and sol
vent credits. Last year these
sources of income raised a total ol
approximately $115,135.
A general increase in expendi
tures is noted in most of the de
partments. While the items in the
general administration fund re
main virtually the- same, new se-r
vices have been added. The ap
propriation for badly needed re
pairs to the city hall - ,s inereas
ed from $' 000 to $2,0„ -e item
including supplies. A .er $1,
200 was appropriated finance
a rat control program. This ye-at

for the* past fiscal year.
Appropriations for the mainten
ance and expansion of the ceme
tery were increased from $0,500 to
$7,000, the additional amount hav
ing been appropriated to finance
a contemplated expansion there.
Turning the swimming pool op
elation over to the recreational
committee, the board is reducing
the appropriation there from $2,
200 to $1100.
The fire department appropria
tions were reduced from $8,015 to
$3,850.
The appropriation for the police
department was increased irom
$18,065 to $19,300, most of the in
crease to go for the purchase of
uniforms and equipment.
•Street department appropria
tions jumped from $22,655 to $33,
493.46 The increase is traceable
to the proposed purchase of $9,000
worth of new equipment and a
gain of about $3,000 in labor
costs.
A similar increase is noted in
the water department appropria
tions, the estimated expenditures
jumping from $17,700.17 last year
to $28,920.00 this year. Most of
the increase is to go for the new
well now being developed on the
municipal water plant property.
"Ill-' board also included a $6,000
appropriation for new pipe to con
tinue as rapidly as possible the
extension of water lines to every
nook and corner m the town

year, debt service costs amounted
to $28,195.00.
