( & TRUST CO. T. M. WELLS, TOBACCO M TING AT *o" FLORENCE ON FRIDAY " te of sel report Florence, S. C., Jan. 11.-The three find d important phases of production, grad ing and marketing tobacco wi be FIRE taken up Friday in the South Caro lina tobacco growers convention in Florence, T. Benton Young, secretary Wat of the state association, announced . r today. Each of these important aus I points will be discusse din all its rami- when fications both by state experts and by Unite( men who have attained national emin- stroye ence in these respective spheres of sroyi action* and study. origm Mr. Aaron Sapiro, of San Francisc merce CalIf., organizer and legal advisor ot ures the biggest co-operative growing, preseT packing and marketing organizations it wo of the Pacific coast states of Oregon, tit Washington and California, will be tia the chief speaker. lie will present a The co-operative plan of growing, handl- ment ing and marketing of crops which may five a be applied in South Carolina to to, e e bacco, cotton, potatoes, or other com- piece modities produced in this state. Dr. Wash J. Y. Joyner, and Clarence Poe, promi- than nent in North Carolina as Southern the di agricultural lights, will be present also to addres sthe convention. pourii The meeting will be held in the lows Florence county court house beginn- were ing at 11 o'clock Friday morning. Dur Mrs. Frances Y. Kline, of Florence. which district demonstration agent, has is- freme sued an invitation to the ladies to at tend this convention also for the pos- taken sible marketing information which they may procure from the discussions. "Production of tobacco particularly ?3U3 concerns us this year, "says Mr. Young. "While North Carolina and Virgina last year far exceeded the production of the year before, we have been liable to congratul.te our selves on our good sense in reducing by 18,000,000 pounds last year. But most of our good sense has a matter of the elements. The cold killed our beds and the rain drowned our fields -the first cutting us probably one third and the second cutting us more. Our reduction was a matter more of Providence. "Last year we had a 600,000,00 pound production against a 400,000, 000 consumption speaking approxima tely. We people of South Carolina must determine now our pol'cy for the coming season, judging by the business outlook for tobacco in this situation. "Grading is a much debated and dis- 1 cussed point' in the tobacco industry, just now. We have had much agita tion about grading and tieing in South Carolina. General opinion is that legislation is the only way to bring about this rule. We hope to have such a meeting here Friday as will be able to discuss intelligently this very point, and take representative action. "Compulsory grading has been pro posed. Also compulsory tieing of to bacco to bring it onto the warehouse floors, there is a very decided differ ence of opinion, with good reason on both sides, on this question. How ever, we want it settled one way or the other in the Friday convention. Of course; marketing is the big point with all of us-that's the ex change which brings us our money for the crop. Very likely two impor tant propositions will be made to this meeting lFriday. One of these will be ito debar from the floors of the ware houses all tobacco which will not bring as much as five cents. The other Will be the installation of a system of market reporting used successfully in Kentucky, where every warehouse is compelled by law to post, before open ing the next day the total sales and average for the day previous. "The tobacco industry is borne dowln very' hea itday b1y the acumla t ion of' millions of p~ounds of sorry - weed, which clubs (Iowa the price of 3 ood I obacco. Tlhe only wiay to pre' vent this situation is b~y the planter not s4elling the sorry stuff into the hands of the manufacturer.
