LOCAL NOTES AND TOBACCO
sOrryR@s

 

BY 0. L. JOYNER.

i cceneseieeemammnnsl

About 75 per cent. of the crop |;

has been cut, and cures up to
now have been fairly good, but ‘a
good lot of that still on the hill
has taken the second growth and
not much good tobacco can be}
cured after this week.

The Danville Journil, conserv-
ative as it usually is, predicts that}
this will neither be a very fine nor
avery commoa erop, bata me-
dium one, with right much color.
From the ovst information that
we can gather this is about the
condition of the crop in Eastern
Carolina.

A dispatch from Rocky Mount
to the Raleigh News and Observer!
dated August 24, says, “The ware.
housemen-here..-.seem. -the most
modest and least hoastfal of thei
brotherhood, for. while they sell

 

more tobacco and at the highest’

figures of any of the Eastern Car-—
