Tobacco Market Report.
The receipt- on our market for the
past week have not been heavy, yet
they were a great deal heavioi than
one would expect, considering the ex-treme
dry weather which has prevailed
for the pa.-t few week.-. Farmers are
very anxious to sell tobacco at present
p'ices if the weather would only admit
of then handling it and getting il in
shape to put on the market. Those!
farmers who did come to market last
week were extremely well pleased with
their prices and were well repaid for
llie extra trouble il may Have cost
them to get their tobacco in shape.
Prices are a good deal belter than they
have been at any lime ibis season and,
in fact, we feel like prices are about as
good as they were two year- ago, still
two years is a long time forone to carry
in hi- mind the prices of tobacco. Our
buyer- are more anxious for the wced
than we have seen I hem foi a long
time and Greensboro looks forward to
heavy .-ale.- ;!:..- reason, as our i uyers
