FARMERS REAPBIG PROFITS
TOBACCO CROP PROBABLY
SIXTY PER CENT. SOLD?-MANY FARMERS HAVE RE-
CEIVED FINE AVERAGES-
TOBACCO CONTROL MEANS
MONEY TO GROWERS.
Stokes county farmers are in ibetter shape financially, probably, ithan they have been in since 1918- j19, the big years, when tobacco jprices skyrocketed to unheard of \averages.
The 1938 crop was a good one, Itaken all in all, and its general av- jerage to the farmers has meant ihandsome profit.
It is now conceded by 90 per
cent, of the farmers that the gov-
ernment's arrangements of pro-
duction control has resulted in
handsome profits to the growers,
and that uncontrolled productionwould have resulted in disaster.
The 1938 crop is now probably60 per cent. marketed. By
Thanksgiving day the great ma-;
jority of the crop will have been
sold. Farmers have receive d jin most cases, good prices, whilesome have achieved that 'fine jprofit reminding of the days fol-
lowihg trfe world war when $1 a
pound was common ' experiences
for the farmere.It is a foregone conclusion that
next year's election .oft^CJ'opvcon-trol will result in an overwhelming
verdict for governmental asirfsi-ance for the farmer, "whereby wild
production will be restricted.I I
