Third Tobacco Warehouse Set To Serve Growers
Prospects for 1961 show tobacco volume in the area may drop 15 to 20 percent from 1960 while prices rise. Harry Frosteg, manager of the Thomasville market, expects the season to begin in late July. A new 60 000 square foot warehouse, built by J B Singletary & Co, will be used this year and joins two existing 50 000 square foot buildings for a total of 100 000 feet of floor space. All three front Metcalfe Avenue near Colonial Stores. Frosteg notes hail damaged some areas but many crops should yield well.
