LOCAL NOTES AND TOBACCO
JOTTINGS.
Se nS
BY O. L. JOYNER.
Every indication points to five
million pounds for Greenville this
year. The market has already
sold nearly two million pounds.
It seems to be with character.
istic pride that when some of: our
farmers bite at the bait offered by
distant warehousemen, they re-
turn home and proceed immedi-
ately to blow the said market and
the said warehousemen.
If every farmer were hke the!
one who tries first one market |
and then another and offers the
fact that he lives near some other
market, to get the men with
whom he is selling his tobacco to
give him just a little bit better
price than he does other people,
what kind of a world would we
have. Such men are pigmies,
while they think they are really
smart. ~
We are frequently asked about
how tobaceo.is holding up, &c.
At this particular time tobacco is
sélling remarkably well. When
everything is taken into. consid -
eration, the prices that have been
obtained for tobacce this season
ate most remarkable. From the
15th of August .to the present
time nearly.every warehouse in
aville has had just about all
~business it coald do. -There
seve been up to date 1,700,000
pounds of tobacco sold in. Green~

150people would gather around
the buyers aud warehousemen,|
and nutwithstaading the beseesh-
ing appeals made by the ware-
~sale, they would stand there jus;
ithe sarie, people a great many
umes whe-never~grew-a stalk of
tobacco por had any mterest in
the sale. Sounder the circum-
stances, we. think., prices have
been. almost phenominal this sea-
for good tobacco to go higher.
When the bill to regulate ware
house charges was before the las.
legislature, among other argu-
ments it was said that the farm-
ers in eastern North Carolina
were so anxious for the law that
they would hold their tobacco
until the law went into effect
the first day of October before
they began selling their tobacco.
The bill passed ~both houses by
an ovewhelming majority, aud
'goes into effest October lst next,
but le. as see if the farmers held
their tobacco to ect the benefit of
the new law. Up tothe 20th of
September of this year nearly
three times as much tobacco
sold in the three leading eastern
Carohna markets as ever be"
fore for the sametime. It really
looks as it were the other way ex-
actly. The bill is a law and
whether it will benefit or demage
the farmer we shall not argue, we
shall conform to it, however, but
our experience in selling tobacco
is, when farmers have good tobac-
co, they donTt mind paying to
~have it sold, but when they have
poor tobacco, selling it absolute-
ly without charge does not give
satisfaction.

The world is full of strange in-

so much talk of hard times in
North Carolina and there were
never sO many visitors in the
mountains of theT State as_ there
were during the past sammer;
there were never 80 many excur-
sions nor excursions so largely
patronized. The colleges and
high schools have opened this
