Leaf Prices Averaging
$4 Above Last Year
Tobacco prices on the Black
shear market averaged $70.44
per hundred for the first five
days of sales $4.00 per hun
dred above the same five-day
period in 1967.
Through Tuesday, 2,932,150
pounds had been sold at
Blackshear, bringing $2,965,-
306.02 for the $70.44 average.
This compare with 2,773,414
pounds, at a $1,842,537.85
value for an average price of
$66.44 for the first five days
last year.
Movement of tobacco to mar
ket this week continued at an
even pace with all warehouses
having full days sales, but no
blocking of the market.
Volume is expected to slack
en by next week. Some
estimates are that this year’s
crop will be off in volume by
20 to 30 per cent because of
acreage-poundage cutbacks
and dry weather damage.

THE VETERANS
CORNER
Editor’s Note: Below are |
authoritative answers by the I
Veterans Administration to {
seme of the many current
questions from former service
men and their families. Fur
ther information on veterans
benefits may be obtained at
any VA office.
Q —l recently got out of a
Veterans Administration hos
pital after being confined there
more than a month for treat
ment for a disability not re
lated to my military service.
Is it true that I am entitled
to payment from VA for this
period since I was hospitaliz
ed for more than 21 consecu
tive days?
A If, as your letter indi
cates, you were hospitalized
and treated by VA for a non
service-connected disability,
you are not eligible for the
compensation that is paid for
the temporary 100 percent
rating given by VA to all vet
erans hospitalized more than
21 consecutive days for treat
ment of a service-connected
' disability.
Q — I had active military
service from May to December
1955 and came out without a
scratch. However, I am now
disabled as a result of an ac
cident. Am I entitled to a
pension?
A— Not according to the
facts stated. One of the re
quirements for a nonservice
connected pension is that the
veteran have at least 90 days
of continuous active duty, any
part of it during a wartime
period, or be separated from
wartime service for a disabili
ty incurred in service in the
line of duty. Your period of
service was not during war
time, so you are not eligible
for a nonservice connected
p^lTision under existing law.
CARD OF THANKS
We would like to take this
means of expressing our sin
cere thanks and deepest ap
preciation to all those who
were so kind and thoughtful
to us during our recent loss.
We are especially grateful
for the messages of sympathy,
floral tributes, covered dishes
and other kindnesses shown to
all of us.
May God bless each of you
is our prayer.

SHARP CREASE
You’ll get a better crease
when pressing trousers by
first using a damp cloth. Then,
before the cloth is completely
dry, replace it with a sheet
of heavy wrapping paper and
go over the creases again, ad

Electric heating? Now?
(Don’t lose your cool, but
it’s an idea to warm up to.)
Not quite 110 in the shade. Not quite the day
to think about heating either. Right? But
eventually you’re going to do something about
that old heating system. Why not today?
Electric heating is easily installed. Takes
only a few days at most, whatever your home’s
age, style or present system.
Other nice things: Electric heat is clean. So
your home stays that way. Cozy because it is
a gentle, uniform heat. Quick because instant
warmth is thermostat-near. Quiet, too.
Flexible because electricity offers you the
widest choice of systems. Dependable because
flameless electric heating systems have long
life design. Trouble-free operation.
Electric heating now? To enjoy it when it’s
cold, get it while it’s hot!
