There are three ways used by far-
for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and flue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called flue cured. In flue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
flues in houses especially built to re-
the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy flue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other brands
of high grade, flue tobaccos.
Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
is flue cured, but the inside is
filled with cheap, flimsy, heavily
sweetened air cured tobacco; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
such tobacco.
Expert tests prove that this flue
cured tobacco, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind,
and has a wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chewers. If the
kind of tobacco you are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit of
expectorating, stop fooling yourself
and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like tobacco chew-
formerly bought costing from
pound; Schnapps is sold
at per pound in cuts, strictly
and cent plugs.

Thus a hen lays at the age of one

two years, about at the age
of three years, about at the

are reducing expenditures and
large building operations

Caution should certainly b

price of farming land in many j
States is based on present high

in debt might, if crops are poor,
find himself in difficulties, and
now therefore is the time to get
out of debt, so as to b on the

severe business panic

workshops to shut down or
wages to be so reduced that

decline and so cause a tumble in
prices.
Even under such distressing
circumstances the farmer, who
is out of debt is assured of a
home and a comfortable living,
and it may inconvenience him
to adjust his living to a

attendance at the meeting of

were more than a hundred teach-
present and many who are
not teachers. The exercises were
exceedingly interesting and
will be mentioned more fully by
the association reporter.
A feature of the day was the
address by Prof J. B- Carlyle,
of Wake Forest college,
after a witty and
introduction by Pres-
made a
speech that was inspiring and
uplifting to all present Prof.
Carlyle's subject was school
and the He first
mentioned the duties of the
school to the community, that it
should had in industrial life, in
intellectual life, in social life and
in spiritual life. Under each of
these divisions he forcibly and
eloquently portrayed the duties
of the real teacher.
Then upon the duties of the
community to the school he said
the community should be con-
and liberal in
not stinting in praise, and should
pay teachers well, enlarging
strongly on each of these points,
