As we finish receiving the 1989 crop, Lancaster Leaf wishes to thank all
the growers who sold their tobacco to them.
For the 1990 crop, we believe prices will remain strong because of a con
tinuing demand for Type 41.
We will continue to make our purchases from the grower, on the farm,
and hopefully be able to help growers by giving sound advice in growing
and stripping practices.
We value your confidence in Lancaster Leaf and welcome doing business
with every grower of Type 41. Our dedication to a better market and better
prices is assurance to you of our faith in the future growing of Pennsylvania
tobbaco.
