Japan to Add to Her Forces.

Washington, June lS.-The following
cablegram was received at the japanese
legation here from the japanese govern

"The situation in north China is daily

is so strong that no grade Is overlooked or
sold under value.
The sale Of dark and brights show a con-
slant increase over former seasons, and why
should not Durham be the best tobacco mar
ket anywhere in this section? We have the
manufactu es here to convert it into every
known form and grade OF manufactured
goods. They must have it or stop their fac
tories. Among them the competition is live
~. and every pile put ON the warehouse floOr
sells for it, full value. Again, the leaf
dealers are always ut the sales, and are
among our most liberal buyers.
The tobacco int rest of Durham is large
ly on the increase, and this means addi-
tional inducements for the farmer tO sell
his tobacco on the Durham market.
Durhams splendid warehouse facilities,
her immense manufacturing interests, her
strong corps of buyers, and her prestage as
tocacco headquarters, all c0nspire to make
her the best market for the tobacco growers
Of this and neighboring States Ii is the
manifest destiny If Durham to become the
great centre market for all contiguous Sec
tons.
Durham handles every class and kind Of
tobacco grown in our sect n, and needs it
all for manufacture.
There is no class or grade OF tobacco,
from scraps up, but what will find COMPETE
ton, ready buyers and good prices. The
buyers are now out in full force, and the
loose sales present much activity every day.
Buyers are plentiful, and all feel good over
The Durham recorder. [volume] (Durham, N.C.) 1879-19??, 1900-04-16

I" HE growth of this market is steady,
supported by large number of man
- ufacturers in every line OF the trade,
aud eclipse all other markets. There is al
ways spirited bidding over every pile, and
the farmer sees for himself that everything
is being done by our buyers, looking to his
interest ard that of Durham, for they are
rightly regarded as inseparable.
Durham wants your red tobacco.
Durham ,rants your dark tobacco.
Durham pants yOur sun cured tobacco.
Durham needs and must hare these tobaccoes for
manufacturing purposes
The factories, the labor and the capital
are here, and the tobacco to keep these es-
Establishments at work must be had.
Farmers, your tobacco is wanted here. 1t
does not matter whether it is good, bad or
Indifferent, bring such as you have, and you
will find a ready sale, at prices that will
agreeably surprise you. You will always
find anxious buyers and plenty of money
here. The interest of our buyers never lags
so long as there is pile of tobacco in sight
The more the tobacco the more the interest
grows, and the more you get for your to-
bacco. We emphasize it-Durham is the
place to sell your tobacco.
Since the new year came in sales of loose
tobacco have been large at all our ware
houses, and prices have been highly salts
factory. The competition on all tobaccoes
The Durham recorder. [volume] (Durham, N.C.) 1879-19??, 1900-04-16

Il natural sequence that the tobacco interest
of Durham must be protected.
Every commendable inducement is of
fered the farmer to sell his tobacco crop on
the Durham market. There is consump-
tive demand for it here afforded by no other
market in the Bright Tobacco District"
and our buyers are pledged to pay the high
est value for all grades put upon this mar
ket
The accommodations at all our ware
houses are not surpassed for comfort and
neatness by any other in North Carolina or
Virginia.
FACTS For FARMERs TO REMEMBER.
z1+@s-
That there are big orders recently placed
with our dealers for all grades of tobacco.
That our manufacturers use over fifteen
million pounds of tobacco annually, and
must have your cutters and smokers.
That our leaf dealers, both spectators
and order men, must have millions OF
pounds of your tobacco. So il is clear, with
the facts presented on this page. that Dur.
ham buyers and manufacturers are in a POI
sition to pay YOU the very highest market
prices. They are compelled to see that
every pound, from the commonest to the
finest, brings its full value. Bring your to-
bacco to Durham, for we feel sure there is
not another market in this State or Virginia
that will pay higher price.

DURHAM AS A GREAT TOBACCO CENTRE.
@@*e@@
The enormous business in smoking, ciga-
rette and tobacco manufacture in its multi
farious forms exercises a powerful influence
upon the enormous aggregate tobacco trade
of Durham.
As leaf tobacco market for all grades,
Durham has for several years taken the
lead of other tobacco markets, not only in
the volume of pounds sold, but in the high
average price paid the farmer.
The prevailing ambition of every dealer
in leaf tobacco here, whether he be L" a leaf
dealer" large OF small manufacturer of
tobacco, is, in every possible manner, to
protect the interest of the farmer who dumps
his tobacco upon any of Durham's ware
house floors. They are jealous of Durham's
proud record as loose tobacco market, and
they have combined to sustain it, This is
the kind of combine the farmer values,
and is not slow to appreciate.
1t is fact, admitting of no discussion,
that the present and past prosperity of Dur,
ham is more prominently derived and more
closely allied with the tobacco market and
tobacco manufacturers here than every
other combined interest. Then il follows as
