law In the past has had good effect in

ful that only tobacco Of uniform quality is
put In the hogsheads. This has increased
the confidence Of foreign buyers in the Ma
ryiand crop. The Maryland tobacco is the
most satisfactory for the French needs and
the market here is gaining what IL has
heretofore lost by false packing.
The French government has been sup
