a third more than last year "


Clarksville, Tenn, June al
Clarksville tobacco men deny the re-
port Of the department Of agricul-
ture that there has been an increase
OF 90 percent in acreage In tobacco
this year. They claim on the contra
~ there Is a shortage, and that the
difference in the government state
ment and the real amount raised Is
about as per cent. There are others,
however. who say the government Is
right and that the claim Is being
made that there Is a short crop Ia or
der to affect prices. A big meeting
was held at which the tobacco men
the government was all
wrong, but others de-" that the
government has no interest in the
matter and has good enough facili-
ties for collecting data to Justify the
belief that II Is not so far wrong as
some would make II appear.

The Dark Market.

A report of the department of
agriculture for June contains the fol
lowing interesting Information In re-
gard to the prospect for the dark to-
bacco crop:
conditions In the dark districts
of Kentucky and Tepnessee are gem
orally favorable, and for the dark
district as a whole small increase Is
indicated
"The Paducah district reports a
small increase. Season Is late, due TO
rains. Plants are plentiful. but in
some localities oyergrown. the land
having been too wet to prepare for
transplanting. Insects are trouble
some in spots. Good prices are slim
ulating farmers to put in good siz-
ed crop.
The stemming district also shows
a small increase In acreage Excess
sive wet weather and heavy rains
are complained Of. making the sea-
son late. Much OF the best tobacco
is raised on the bottoms. which are
too wet 10 plant as yet. Plants are
generally plentiful. except In a few
localities where they have been de
stroyed by floods. Transplanting is
now going on. from 10 to so per
cent of the acreage having been
planted, according to locality and
conditions. Plants are overgrown in
some places and In others small but
are generally in good condition. A
few correspondents think prevailing
prices too small and likely to cause
reduction of acreage. but the general
opinion seems to be that the price
Is sufficient TO stimulate farmers to
put in slightly larger acreage than
last year. Spencer county, Indiana,
which is included In this district has
a decrease of acreage over last year
of about Is per cent, as reported.
"The upper Green river. and the
uppsr Cumberland districts seems to

plants spelling. From so to 10 per
cent. of the acreage has been plant

son over last is indicated.
"rhe Clarksville and Hopkinsville
Dlstrict-Although in some sections
planters are said to have organized
to reduce acreage on account of low
prices, yet for the district as a whole
