LOCAL NOTES AND TOBACCO
JOTTINGS
BY O. L. JOYNER.
Tobacco sticks Seem to be very
much in demand this year.
The primings that are coming
now, generally shuw good colors.
We hope they are true foreruno-
nera of the crop.
In traveling around this year
we notice that nearly everybody
is priming tobacco rather than
cut the stalk. This may be the
best way to get the most money
out of the. crop, obut this writer
dves not believe it, and while we
do not pretend to advise others
as to the best wethod, frankly we
believethat a wrapper crop. will
not sell for mach over half prim-
ed off the stalk what it would
have sold for had it been cut- We
haye written to the largest manu-"
facturers of thia country and as
soou as we hear from them will
publish just what they nave to
say about priming ~obacco in
_ their own words, then furmers can
be their own judges as to the best
method. We have heard a good
many say they sold primings for
more money than their staik cat
tobacco. is may be true ina
few instences, but there is just no
telling what primed tobacco
T would have brought had it been
cut.
Big Breaks.
The breaks vat at the ware-
houses to-day looked almost like
' fall times. There wus between
- 36,000 and 20,000 pounds on the
floors. The Eastern led off with
the first and largest break, the
others following well. Prices
were good.

A Short Sermon.
If you make a man a promise
to pertorm an obligation at a cer-
tain time be sure that you keep
it On the strength of your
promises other promises may
have been made, and failure to
keep your word may cause others
to fail also. Be honest in your
dealings, and truthful in your
promise, and the world will get
along better. ©

The September number of 7o7-
lettes, issued August Ist, is the
bhandsomest fashion magazine we
have yet seen. Formerly books
on fashion at this season of the
year contained but little that was
either instructive or attractive
Joilettes certainly does pot travel
on the same road with others of
its class, for each issue appears to
excel all preceding ones for the
beauty of its illustrations, the
simplicity and elegant taste dis
played in the selection of its na-
merous costumes. And the clear
and concise articles on the styles
that are and that are to be, writ~-
ten by its many correspondents
abroad, place a stamp of authen-
ticity and refinement upon the
magazine that every lady of taste
appreciates.
