KinstOn Tobacco Market.
(Kinston Free Press.)

The total number of pounds of to-
bacco sold in this season TO January
31st. according to Il report Just mode
by the board of trade, Is ,211s206 for
$3.50, 1889. This was 5,595,9 ,976
pounds less than this market sold last
year, but at the same time it return
cd $138,206.37 more money than las;
years crop did. The sales during the
past month have not been so heavy
by half as they were last January. In
January 1904 we sold 1850 ,511
pounds. receiving therefor $105, 5,aS4.21,
an average Of about i IL cents a
pound. This year in January we sold
5a4.61S pounds sor $39,%99.19, an av-
erage of about I 1-2 cents a pound.
Thus ii will be seen that there is
not great deal of difference between
last years market for January and
this. the difference being only one
cent in favor of this years prices.
1t is not the warning clear and un-
mistakable that caution should he
used In planning another tobacco
crop? The demand for raw leaf is not
sucn as to Justify an increased acreage
in tobacco next year. A curtailment
in acreage would be better, indeed
curtailment is absolutely essential cir
cumstances seem TO indicate, If the
ruling prices for tobacco are TO be
kept up 20 the level maintained dur
ing the past fall.

Commanding a view of one hundred

genius OF Commodore Brooke. Here
