There was a full board Of buyers
in attendance watching everything

reached before the prize was captured.
The buyers look forward to goo d

was more of the new crop, dark, on

both old and new was well taken care
of.
This question has been raised by
some of the good farmers whether 1t
was wise to use Paris Green on the
tobacco in case the worms were again
bad. Would say by no means, do
not use it on the tobacco unless you
want TO kill your fellow man. Would |
suggest that the best thing to do is to
poison the Jimson flower and put
lights in your fields to burn the to-
bacco flies. 1t is to be hoped the Leg |
islator will pass law prohibiting
anyone from using the poison on the
