lg very favorable for handling tobacco.
For some unknown cause, offerings to-
Law and Yesterday have been generally
Inferior to any previous days this week
Or month This has caused common and
nondescript sorts to show slight decline,
1ut not below, if so low, as they were in
December. Prices are fully sustained,
and competition strong for all offer
ings of decided character and es-
oecially color. In spite of the
opinion of your Henderson N. O. cor
respondent, it is a conceded fact that
the best coi0r of the 50 growth is to be
sought in western North Carolina. We
cannot compete with some other parts OF
the bright belt in their peculiar and ex-
luisite flavor, but can, and do, in color
and texture. This is shown by the nu-
merous premiums awarded last fall 10
western North Carolina for these things,
which art does not supply.
