MAN AND CHILD IN THE DARK
TOBACCO DISTRICT.
To Whom it May Concern:
There has been a call made for a
meeting of the Planters Dark To-
bacco Protective Association, to be
held in Hopkinsville, Dec. 20, 1904.
Now, our county has not had
much information in regard to what
the Association has done and pro-
poses to do. want to urge every
one to come out to that meeting.
Speakers will be there to explain the
situation and give you all the infor-
nation possible And ! further urge
that you do not sell your tobacco
before you attend or hear from that
meeting. There are men working
faithfully for our interest in this
matter, with a fair chance of sue
cess. Our county is said TO be be-
hind all the others in the district in
organization. This matter is large
undertaking and means hundreds of
thousands Of dollars to our people,
and we should not be too impatient
of its progress. Hold your tobacco
and help yourselves and friends by
so doing. Come out to the meeting.
