Some Requirements.

A party other than a farmer or
grower of tobacco desires to be in
formed what revenue tax would be
required to be paid by him to sell
leaf tobacco in the hand and
where to obtain the license. He was
advised that in order to carry out
his wishes and sell leaf tobacco
in the hand to consumers he would
be required to qualify as a man
ufacturer of to bacco and put the
tobacco up in statutory packages,
ranging from one to sixteen ounces,
the same as required for Smoking
Tobacco, and that each such pack
age must be properly labeled and
stamped, and the stamp properly
cancelled: or the tobacco might be
put up in wooden packages con-
tanning 10, 20, 40, or so pounds,
the same as provided by law and
regulations for Fine Cut Chewing
Tobacco, the tax in each case being
at the rate of 6 cents per pound.
That no special tax is required to
be paid to engage in such business,
but that the applicant must give
bond and register with the collect
or for his district.

Light Receipts.

The receipts of leaf tobacco at
the tobacco warehouse in Louis
vile have been the smallest this
week of any week in the history
of the leaf toblccO Business in this
city. During the past two days

been received and the receipts fol-
the entire week will not exceed SOC
hogsheads.
The present time is just between
seasons when the receipts are al
ways light, but for the past few
weeks they have been exception
ally light. This is accounted for by
tobacco men by the fact that the
high price for hurley has had the
effect of rushing all that grade of
tobacco to the market early in the

The revenue the English Govern

This is an increase of 1915, 900, or
