Joyner.raMr. Chairman, Uruzens of Ocala, andGentleman of the Convention :It affords me very keen pleasure toof giving to thehave the privilegeeonvention through this paper semeidea of the tobacco industry of NorthCarolina.Until very recent years nothingmuch had ever been said about NorthCarolina as a tobacco preducing State.Nearly every schcol boy remembersthat his primary lessons in geographytuught him that the products of NorthCarolina weie tar, pitch and turpentineand outside of her own confines sbehas been known mainly as the pinetree State, but the North Carolia ottoday is a sreater State. abounding ~Dpresourcescapabilities of her soils have never beeknown, her water supply is unlinit d,her (eusperate climate has been com"almost inexhaustible, Thepared to that of suuny Lialy and s. uthern Krance end is excelled erly by thematchless climate of your own los ely. *Bivrida,about which it gives me pleasure tofer tobacco ticlds, the sub-jectwrite,of any other State in our great Union,are broader in scope ihun thoseextendi .g as they do irom the aliitudi"nous peaks ol the Alleghany system mthe west to the sand recied shores ofRoanoke Island in the east, I repeat,Tain happy that an oppertanity is heregiven me to present ininy feeble way,and regret what it could be more ablydone, & faint outline of the tobacco in-© dustry da Noréh Carolina.By reference to the evloniu recordsof the State we find that the early his-tory of North Cacolina is very repleteWith intonation pertuining to thegrowth ot tobacco in the State cs earlyeyen vs the closing years of the seveu-teenth and first querter ot the eigh-tecnih century. 6walter Kaleigh with his colony of firstwhite settlers landed at Roanoxe Islandin 1084 off the easter shore of NorthCarolina, they found the natives theresmoking a plant which they calledupowac. From this early period inthe StateTs lisiury to present time to-bacco has formed one of the principalcommercial commoddities ot the OluNo.th state and although a very greatdeal of the credit of the tubacco pro-duction oof Noith Carolina bas been» given to Virginia evcu trum the eaclicst~ dimes Vo the present on account of the7 �,� portation of the product direct irom~Virginis ports and shipped as Virginia© tobacco, yet it is a most important audprobably the leading agricultural pro-duct of the State. While the object ofgis paper 3s not to compare the tobaccoof North Carolina ix point of supenorityover the tobacco of any other State,yot it ia not amiss to state here ia justiceto North Carolina tobacco that notuutii within fhe last few years did theworld across'the seas know there were |3 2 foreign demand for bright tobaccosupplied almost wholly from Vir-ntNP eae@ tobacco as Carolina brights,ih60 to 70 per cent. of the tobacco thusOTOR|liength, in lowa and Onio .twoin fact, when Sir)ppoints and while probably fromexported was North Carolina tobaceo itwas all branded and known us Virginiabrights, and hence by this means one ofthe leading industriss of the State, and |which is probably today attractingmore atten.ion than any other agrivul-tural product, has gone unknown untilduring the last decade and through theinstrumentality and efforts mainly otMr. HL. E. barman, editor of theSouthern ~Tobacco Journal, of Winston,N. C., and a few ~other tokacconist3s ofthe State its claims Fave beep madeknown and ths time is not far distantwhen Carolina byights. will be recog-nized, us they realy are by tar, the su"periur of the bright tobacco producedby any other State in the Union.The tobacco industry of the UnitedStates isa great and varied one. Unlikethe cotton industry there is not a likelyprobability of overstocking the marketwith the kinds the trade demand. Thereare hardly two States in the Unionthat produce the same kind of tobaccoand hence there is no competition be-tween the Stites. While it is alltobacco and quite similar in its manyuses, yet d.ssimilar enough to preveniclose competition. For instance, in thefar northern States they pioduce acigar tobacco, yet they cannot competew.th the ciga* tobacco grown in Florida.In East Tennessee, Virginia and inSouth Carolina they produce a brighttobaeco yet nut the kind that enters intoclose competition with the brightvivarette tobbacces of North Carolina ,hence we are compelled to view thetobacco industry of the country fromthe different types that are produced,and looking at it from this light theintelligent ovserver is forced to theconclusion that governed by the properand legitimate laws of trade the tobaccoindustry of the United States is a per"manent one in which for generations tocome mankind can find pleasaat andprofitable employment.[TO BE CONTINUED. |Don't Tobacco Spt and Smoke YourLite Away.Pe~THE WINDOW TOWARD THEIt you want to quit tebacco usingcasily and forever, be made well |strong, magnetic, full of new life and |vigor, take No"To-Bae, the wonder-worger thal makes weak men strong,Many gain ten pounds in ten Gays.Over 400,000 cureT.

Hall in New York Observer.iSneering at a Mechanic.oBoys,� says an exchange, ~donot sneer at the hardworking me-chanic, for beneath that dust soiledjacket may rest the spirit of truenobility.�The exchange is eminently cor-rect. It is indeed wrong to passthrough this world sneering at me-chanics. A good, average, able-bodied mechanic is a bad man tosneer at. At almost any unexpect-ed moment he is quite liable totransfer some of the dust of hisjacket to the broadcloth coat of thesneerer and jolt him severely if hesneers too hard at the mechanic. Ifa boy or young man is contemplat-ing sneering at a mechanic, it wouldbe quite as well not to leta hard-working méchanic catch him at it.When the boy wants to sneer realhard and feels that he canTt hold itany longer, it would be far better,instead of plunging right into themidst of a lot of hardworking me-chanics, to seek some secluded lo-cality and have the sneer out all byhimself. It would look a great dealbetter, and the boy would look bet-ter when he went back to the bosomof his~family.No, boys, it is neither polite, gen-tecl nor wise to ssaeer ata mechanic.Neither is it healthy. ~The sneerer,is too often found in a pensive mood,abstractedly engaged in applyingpieces of raw beefsteak to his eye,trying toreduce a swollen nose witha generous decoction of arnica, feel-ing his lame back or picking thegold filling out of his teeth, whichhe happened to casually cough upsoon after indulging in his playfullittle sneer at the hardworking me-chanic,knew not when shewill not be liable to forget in amonth or six weeks."Texas Sift-a aoaAir Used by a Human Being.Dr. Radcliffe Hall makes the fol-lowing interesting calculation onthe amount of air a human being ofthe average size and proportionswill consume in the space of oneminute when in repose, and alsowhen in the different degrees of ac-tivity. When at rest, we consume500 eubic inches of air per minute;if wo walk at the rate of one milean hour, we use 800; two miles,1,000; three miles an hour, 1,600;four miles an hour, 2,300.
