Farmville Tobacco Market Soldi
Some Over Seven and a Half
Million During Season. Only
Market in East Making a Ga'n*
With Erection of Twtf Large
Plants and Normal Crop, The
Market expects to Sell Ten or
Twelve Million Next Season.
? I
That the Farmville Tobacco
market, which closed Wednes
day of this week for the season,
is destined to be one the largest
markets of the ea& is evidenced
by the glorious fact that for the
season jusft 'dosed it made a gain
in pounds over last season of
half million, with the shortest
crop raised in several years;
while all the other markets will
fall short from a half to several
million pounds.
With the erection of two addi
tional large tobacco plants in
Farmville, for the coming sea
son?the contracts* for which
have alreadj^been let? and with
an average crop the Farmville
market will most ^assuredly sell
around ten or twelve million.
Farmville is indeed fortunate
in having at the head of this
great industry here such men as
Chas. R. Townsend, J. Y. Monk,
J. M. Hobgood, J. 'Bob' Newton,
R. H. Knott and others, who are
acknowledged to be among the
cleverest set of warehousemen
that ever graced a market in the
south? a set of men who have
the farmers' interests at heart,
men, who have, by their honest
and clever dealings, won the
confidence of the people.
Farmville has also beeir -
nate in obtaining as fine and^s
clever set of buyers as can be
found on any market anywhere,
men, who not only take care of
their company's interest, but do
every thing possible to satisfy the
farmers.
A market operating upon such
principles as these, with men
such as the above named at the
helm, is bound to succeed.
Success to Farmville's tobacco
market.
CUP THIS AND PIN
ON WIFE'S DRESSER
Cincinnati man tells how to shrivel
up corns or. calluses so they
lift off with fingers.
Ouch !?!?!? This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in- town if
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that a few drops
of a drug called freezone when applied
to a tender, aching corn or hardened cal
lus stops soreness at once, and soon the
corn or callus dries^up and lifts right
off without pain.
He says freezone dries immediately
and never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding skin. A small bottle of
freezone will cost very little at any
drug store, but will positively remove
every hard or soft corn or callus from
one's feet. Millions of American women
will welcome this announcement since
the inauguration of- the high heels. , If
your druggist doesn't have freezone tell
him to order a small bottle for you.
This country of ours is big en
ough for all sorts of freaks to
live in it but you don't have to
make a fool of yourself, if you
don't want to.*
