THE BRIGHT TOBACCO CROP.
A Splendid Yield Promised in the
DanViIIe Section.

Danville. Va. July 10.-In some sections
of the bright tobacco belt the rains of the
past two weeks have done some damage to
the tobacco crop. but generally the to-
bacco has been favored with good seasons
and the crop is in a most favorable con-
dition. There is every indication that it
will be rich, heavy crop with a suffi-
cheney of good, bright wrappers, or In trade
parlance, "a working crop.
Heavy rains have been somewhat dam
aging to low ground corn, but the upland
grain was never better. The corn crop is
this section will be as good and as large as
any within the past ten years. The wheat
yield has been very favorable. Many farm
ers throughout this section having become
disgusted with the low prices tobacco has
been bringing and foreseeing that the trust
will continue to play havoc with that in
dustry, so far as the producer is concerned
seeded more wheat this year than ever be-
FORE and, with gratifying yield, most
farmers this year have wheat to sell. It
is probable that not dozen farmers in the
bright tobacco belt will be bread buyers
this year. This is something new in this
territory and it will undoubtedly prove a
profitable experiment. Nothing has done
more to impoverish the farmers in this part
of the country than the system of pro-
ducing tobacco for money crop to the en-
tire exclusion of grain and meat for home
consumption. This will be strictly hog
