and hunting trip.
James Macdonald, the English tobacco
magnate connected with the Imperial To-
bacco Company. sailed Saturday for Eng

Some tobacco men are of the opinion
that the Imperial Tobacco Company.

building as a stemmery and storage ware

in North Carolina is from to 3 per cent.
which in itself is enough to give Rich

as the rate here in substantial brick
buildings is nearer | per cent.
