our Eastern N.C. tobacco farmers are
vitally interested. | Belowit is repro"

warning from the advice and be goverii-

The Journal says :
~During the past week several piles
ot tobacco were found to contain leaves
upon which there were quite a depusic
of rosin gum. The tobacco was: from
the new bright ~tubacco sections of
Eastern North Carolina and South
Carolina, a pilate-pine section.
oIt is presume{ that the barns as
well as the hanging poles used in the
barns are made ot pine timber, and in
the process of curing the extreme héat
forces the rosinfrom the timber and
Causes it to drip on the tobacco.
oThe matter is becoming a serious
one. We lear� that the dealers of all
the markets of Virginia ana North
Carolina are receiving complaints from
their correspondents concerning it, and
immediate steps should be taken by the
boards of trade of the several markets
to remedy this evil.
oHundreds of new

the farmers of those sections as well as
to the trade at lurge, they should be
made to know emphatically that a con"

sections.�
Two Good Sells,
The best April fool we heard of on
the 1st was played on Dr. R. L. Carr,
the popular young dentist. It occur-
red in the afternoon. A young lady
~phoned to the dentist and told him
another lady was suffering with a
dreadful toothache and wanted him to
call at once and get that tooth out.
~He put off in haste for the house of the
~supposed patient, was met by the lady
ut the door, and when he mentioned
toothache they both stared vacantly at
each other. Suddenly it dawned upon
both thax the young laay had sent him
on a fool errand, and the last .seen of
