A few nights ago heard converse
ton relative TO the srowth Of tobacco
in this State, suggesting thoughts
which I think worth making public.
The conversation was between two
travelling men, suggested by one asking
the other how was bis trade. The re-
ply was that bis trade was fine In the
Eastern part Of the State-in the to-
bacco section. He said that where to-
bacco was grown successfully In the
state there was no such thing % strtn.
gency in the money market. He also
stated, and ! have heard experts say,
that tobacco could DO successfully
grown In this section. That climatic
conditions are favorable, aud in many
places the soil well adapted to the
growth Of tobacco. II this In true Why
can we not undertake the culture OF
tobacco on Q limited scale? It 10 mt

thousands Of dollars on less land than
man can work in cotton with one
horse. Fresh sandy lands are best
adapted TO the growth Of tobacco, but
any sandy land with clay subsoil, we'll
fertilized, will produce good tobscco.
I would advise experimenting on .
limi tied scale ct first, but ! think thae
the experiment should be made by our
people where they have land adapted

The Story of a Name.

An interesting story is told In regard
to "Conjuror's House. a recent novel
by Stewart Edward White, and. by the
way. st is said that Mr.. White wrote
this book 10 prove that he could write
a loye-story. The proof is entirely sat
isfactory. Those who have read thu
book will remember that the name OF the
hero is Graeme Stewart. and the way in
which this name was selected is curious.
Mr.. White. in gathering material for his
book. went over what he calls the Long
Trail. through the lonely forests Of the
Hudson Bay region. ard when he had
reached the very loneliest and most dos
olate part of the trail he found cut in
the bark Of a tree the name "Graeme
Stewart" 1t at once occurred to him
that the man who could have passed that
way before him. and left his signature
in that place. was the sort OF man for
his hero. and so the name Of the un-
known trapper was chosen for the cen
trail figure Of this romance OF the fur
country.

For all that has been published about
Zangwill, the essential facts of his his
tory are not generally known. He was
the son OF an artisan who stained glass
windows and did other things. At nine
the youth wrote an essay which dis
played so much merit that RothschiId
offered him an education The boy re-
fused. He now says of himself that
even at that early age he knew he was
to write and he wished 10 be free. At
sixteen he wrote a story and went into
partnership with another boy 10 publish

profits. and his neighbors dlsllked the
realism OF the story and requested him
to do nothing more OF the kind. A.
