forever if we are true to ourselves.
2nd. | claim that if q considerable
number of growers withdraw their sup
port from the State Houses they cam
not continue selt-supporting, and will
ultimately be sold and the money turned
into the State Treasury. When our
State Houses are lost to us we must
expect the same fate that has over
taken the growers in Virginia, Oaio,
Kentucky and Missouri. These States
all had State inspections with the adj
vantages incident thereto, but the
farmers were cozancd out of them, and
in 1880, when | was in the State
Grange. there was not an inspection
system in the United States except
Mary land, where the growers had their
tobacco inspected for as little as two
dollars; where they had free storage
and where tobacco that was out Of con-
dition was conditioned and repacked
for their protection. The charges for
inspection ran from four to five dollars;
for storage from Is to % cents per
month, and tobacco that was too high
was put on the market and sold rs dam
aged tobacco. and OF course was almost
total loss to the growers. Whether
there has been any change since 1880
in the inspections in the States named
in the interest of the growers | do not
know, but | have no idea there has
been. When rs a member of the In
spections Committee of the Maryland
State Grange, about 1886, was in
communication with the growers of to-
bacco in these States, they, without
exception, deplored the loss of their
State inspections and advised us to
hold on 70 ours.
Now, Messrs. Editors, in conclusion
let me say to my friends and fellow
growers of the weed in Mary land, that
if they are determined, because they
have friends ut Locust Point whose in
terests they would further or for other
reasons less commendable, to send their
tobacco to Locust Point, to do so, but
to do so with full knowledge of the
possible consequences.
