MARKET REPORT.
The receipts ou our market for the
past week have again been light owing
to the extreme b«d weather which has
prevailed throughout the entire week,
however, we have had a great deal
more tobacco than one would sup|x>se
we would have had cousideriug the
weather, aud those farmers who have
made it a point to come to market
have been very handsomely repaid for
the extra trouble aud hardships they
had to go through to get here with |
their tobacco, for prices ou all grades
have beeu fully as good, if not better,
for the past week than they have for
any week dunug the present season.
We have not seen such satisfaction
among the farmers for a loug time, all
of them are going home well pleased
aud lots of them are highly delighted
with the sales they are making on our
market at present. Our buyers are
very much iu want of tobacco and are
willing to pay outside market prices to
secure it, and we feel that now is the
best time you will have to sell the re-mainder
of your crop.
