In this connection it may be stated that re- Germany has heavily increased her import duty on leaf tobacco, which will doubtless further decrease her import from the United States. In Bulletin Vice Consul Bayard Cutting, Jr, of Milan, Italy, under the heading Independence of Foreign states, among other things, has long been felt that Italy should be freed from its dependence on the foreign and especially American tobacco. Kentucky tobacco dominates the Italian tobacco situation. It current year about worth more of leaf than she ex- ported during the corresponding lour months of the year This is highly significant, to say the least. In Bulletin Consul Gen- Robert J. Wynne of London, in discussing the British leaf to- trade, states as American leaf tobacco trade in the United Kingdom could not hold the it held in 1907. Its decline is due chiefly to the disturbed condition of affairs in Kentucky and On top of these consular warn- comes the recent govern showing, already widely put to the effect that the fiscal year ending June last, the United States ex ported nearly forty-three million pounds less of leaf tobacco than during the previous fiscal year. When it is remembered that there was also a falling off shown for the fiscal year ending June 1903, the significance of these progressive, heavy de- in exports of leaf is dis- It this connection it is tune to state that our exports of Burley to Prance have ceased, because of prices, other grades having situation, if. . ;. supplies three-fifths of the substituted, and it is doubt- raw material, and is if be for the manufacture of recovered under any of price conditions. The same is in a measure true of some other countries to which we have heretofore exported Burley to- in more or less liberal liberal quantities. It is also a well-known fact most popular brands of cigars. Until 1904-6 the prices of Ken- remained low, and even fell year to year. But since that time they have been ruing by giant strides. A wide- spread alarm has been awakened in Italy, and the government which the United States produces less than one third. Therefore, the assumption on the part our leaf producers that they ham the only land in the world that can grow the kind of tobacco that the world wants is fallacious Foreign buyers clearly indicate a determination to bring can growers to a realizing of this fallacy by obtaining their leaf elsewhere. In short, foreign s. it view our high prices and dis- civic conditions in some of our principal tobacco growing sections, have entered vigorously into the occupation of growing in their respective countries and their several and dependencies. Turning the foreign ti the domestic field, not only old Burley producing a large crop, but because of prices aid the migration Bur raisers from the turbulent Burley territory in Kentucky. this type of tobacco is now successfully raised in quantities in Missouri, and in an experimental way in Illinois, as wed as in some other States hitherto not engaged in Burley production.

The marts of trade are better places to find customers than legislative halls. Cash at fair prices are, as a rule, better customers than polling combinations, which themselves in last analysis are to the law of supply and demand, and the outcome of which is, therefore, problematic- while at the same time in- expense, inconvenience and delay, and the withholding from circulation the money that the cash buyer would provide for the facilitation of trade in ah of arteries.
