Mr. B.S. Winstead is what we call a good farmer. From one bushel of clover seed he mowed 28 loads of hay and fed 5 head of horses off of it all summer. He has sold 9 curings of tobacco, which he has sold for over $2,500. Ben, who is working for the Independent Warehouse, South Boston, Va., says he sold this with that house, and if you have some tobacco just as good, he will do as well for you.
