TINS YEARS TOBACCO CR0P.

GOOD PROSPECTS IN ALL DISTRICTS WHERE "THH
WEED" Is CROWN.
From the reports, the tobacco crop Of this year
is one of the largest and best in quality for many
years said w. +. Barnett, a tobacco dealer IN
Maiden Lane. This IS true not only Of the crop in
the United States, but also of the Havana and
Sumatra crops 50 far as heard from. The Sumatra
is becoming one Of the most valuable tobaccos for
wTappers.ind the impOrtations are increasing every
year. The total average of seed leaf Is said 10 be
rather less tins year than 1t was last, but the
Havana seed leaf grown in this country is saId to
be much larger than usual and will make fully two
thirds of the entire crop The Ner- England Home,

Of reports from more than five hundred correspond

and New England there have been no wide areas of
hail storms 10 destroy the leaf, and the Pennsyl-
vania and Wisconsin growers have been equally
fortunate. Some parts Of the state experienced a
slight touch Of frost in the latter part Of last MONTH
but the damage, believe, was confined to small
areas. The most unfavorablc reports have been
received from the tobacco counties Of Illinois
