A little before going to press this af. ternoon, Hal Sugg phoned us that a tobacco barn on O. L. Joyner’s place, two-and-a-half miles from town had just. béen destroyed by fire. “Highest Price. Today Miss Annie Potter, of Greene county, had some tobacco sold at the Planter’s Warehouse and averaged $20, The lowest lot Lrought $14.50 and the highest $29. ‘This lattee price was the highest figuee -hat has been reached on the market this season. E. B. Ficklen bought it. , Time For Them to Hush. We understand that there are still a 1ew people who think that the tobacco market is no benefit to (zreenville. Well, some folks have a mighty loose way of doing their thinking and love t» hanz on to old fogyish ideas. Still Climbing Up. Tobacco receipts keep going right on up the ladder, higher and higher all the time. Today broke the season's record up to this time with 125,000 pounds. It was here from everywhere, each one of the watehouses having abovt as much as it wanted to look after. The sale ivas an all day affuir this time, Starting at the Star at 9 o’clock only that houseaid Planter’s could be finished be- fote dinner. The Eastern and Greenville had the afternoon and gave the buyers suv much to bid a to keep them busy until nearly Wight. There was a large ccowd, maity, adies among them, out to see the break. ‘There is no need of disputing the matter any further— Greenville is the leading tobacco mar- ket of Eastern North Carolina. Other markets are aware uf this whether they admit it or not. A Cunning Snake, Mr. J. A. Price killed a remarkab!e snake Friday. Back of his smoke- house was a hen’s nest in which three hens were laying. He knew there.were two eggs in the nest but when tte chil- dren looked for them they were gone They heard a hen cackle and went im- mediately for the egg but it was not there. This was repeated three times, but no egg was found. Finally, sus- pecting that something was getting the egas, Mr. Price made search and found a large snake just inside the smoke- house. There wasa hole under the house thrsugh which he could protrude his head and rob the hen’s nest ina moment. The snake, Mr. Price said, w.s about 74 inches in circumference and 5 teet long. It was a black snake with very smail white spots here and there. He said it looked like a “circus snake.”—Scotland Neck Common- wealth. Arn Advertiser's Dream.
