Leaf Market Closes Thurs at Mount Airy Tobacco Market
The Mount Airy Tobacco Market ends the 1968 sales season this Thursday with New Farmer's Warehouse and Hunter-Disie Warehouse closing on the date. Market volume and average price per pound fall short of last year due to later opening and weather affecting crop quality and weight. Final figures are expected near three million pounds, well below last year's roughly 12 to 13 million.
