This tobacco was sold to the
Southeastern Aromatic Tobacco
Company of Anderson at prices
ranging from 15 cents a pound on
the lower leaves to $1.25 a pound
on the upper leaves. A ten percent
bonus was also given.
Mrs. Martha Miller of Route 1,
He says that even though the
weather conditions hampered the
quality of the tobacco, he was
pleased w r ith the outcome of the

He also reports another sale to
be held in November, and it is ex
pected that about 1,500 pounds of

PRAYER FOR TODAY
O God, whose love has borne
us all our days, set us free from
selfish fears and worldly anx
ieties. Help us to leave to Thee
the burdens that are r ..liine that
we may give ourselves with all
our hearts to do the duty and
bear the burdens that Thou dost
appoint to us. When we are
troubled and afraid help us so
to rest in Thee, that no anxiety
about ourselves or others may
cloud our vision of Thy love nor
hinder the work of Thy gracious
Spirit within our hearts. In
Jesus Name. Amen.
