126 CIRCULAR 249, U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE 
For similar reasons a grand total of sales floors enumerated would be 
misleading. In Hopkinsville, for example, 16 were in operation during 
the marketing season shown. Nine sold Burley tobacco exclusively, 5 
sold both Burley and fire-cured, and 2 sold only fire-cured. At May- 
field, all 5 sales floors sold fire-cured and 4 out of this number sold One 
Sucker. At Madisonville, the 3 sales floors sold both fire-cured and 
Green River. At Owensboro, 6 of the 9 sales floors sold Green River, 
whereas all of them sold Burley. 
Less duplication is to be noted as to sets of buyers. Separate buyers 
are provided at Hopkinsville for Burley and fire-cured, at Owensboro 
for Burley and dark air-cured, and possibly at Mayfield for fire-cured 
and dark air-cured. At Madisonville only one set of buyers is provided 
for the purchase of the two dark tobacco types.
