Interesting Facts Concerning the
Manufacture OF TOb-ccO.

Very few users of the weed realize th
magnitude Of the tobacco business. Tit
following figures will, we think, surprise a
we'll as interest many of our readers:
In 1886, according to the report of the U
S. Internal Revenue Department, there wer,
goo tobacco factories in the United States
These goo factories manufactured I,so7,.
ago pounds Of chewing and smoking tobacco
and snutfs, on each pound Of which a tax o.
cents was paid to the U. S. Government
OF this total the house Of P. Lorillard & Co.
alone manufactured the enormous quantity
of 27,Soz. $50 pounds. about IA, 900 tons, OF
one.seventh Of what it took goo factories to
make.
This tobacco was sold by so3.4r4 dealers,
every of enc of whom, with scarcely an cx
ception, sold more or less of Lorillard's
Climax Plug Tobacco, which is the acknowl.
edged standard for goods Of this class.
The Lorillards began manufacturing to.
bacco as long ago as 1860 and have for many
years owned and operated the largest factory
in the wsrld. In the last twenty .one years
they have helped support the United States
Government to the extent of ever So, 700,
600, paid into the United States Treasury in
Internal Revenue taxes. Is it to be wonder
ed at that there is SO large surplus in the
Treasury? The weekly payroll of Loril-
lard's factory amounts to SEC, ooo-a small
fortune.
These figures 60 to prove how much Of a
necessity to mankind tobacco has become
and how the real merit Of the goods has
made Lorillard's Tobaccos the favored above
all others and Climox "the cid reliable, es.

BOrax I'm Demand.

The New York Commercial Bulletin says
that it is believed here that dealers will
soon be compelled to seek an additional
stock of borax on the Pacific Coast. as the
stock here is low. The dealers are not free
to offer.
Here is another chance for Nevada. There
are lots OF borax marshes in this State, and
an industry in this line may spring up that
will amount to considerable. Nevada can
furnish the world with the best of most any

REPORTS from various sources rende
the existence of submarine oil wells
very probable. Oil floating on the sur
face of the ocean has been frequently
observed, and in many cases this has
been thought to be due to the escape of
petroleum or other oils from wrecks,
but it has been found in such a great
number of places and in snch quaint
ties that this source is insufficient to &C
count for its presence. An officer OF a
British steamer reports having passed
through large body of what was
thought to be whale oil, about 100 yards
square and foot deep, and there are
many indications in the Gulf of Mexico
which point to the existence of sub
marine oil wells or springs of some
similar substance. and to these must
the source of the floating oil be atfri-
buted.
