There are three aysused by FARM
ers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and flue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery andimproved way
IS called hue cured. In hue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
flues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process develops in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
Stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections Of this rlPe'
iuicy flue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used N

UNIONISM RUN RIOT

Recently in San Francisco the
SITTING carmen were dealt with most
el.. igetically and severely; but no
more so than the situation demanded.
The people OF San Francisco are not
in sympathy with the strike or the
strikers, and in this instance the
unions vii learn the, to them, bitter
lesson, that unless their action meets
with the approval and sympthy OF
the majority OF the citizens, strike
will bring nothing but disaster to the
strikers.
san FRANCISCO, trust and unon rid
den, has almost come TO the limit Of
he endurance. and it cannot. even
were it so inclined, tolerate this co.,
dition any longer. The eXigencies u.

the unions almost carte blanche for
their demands, an they have taken

tated no matter how serious the Stu
alton, how disastrous to the plans for
the city's rebuilding, to attempt en-
forcement of their demands by strik-
ers, until capital has become wary
and the citys rehabilitation has been
threatened. A sort of 'strikeaphObia'
has seized upon them. They have
been seeking what they considered
their immediate advantage without
the slightest consideration of the fact
that vast enterprises, looking to the
city's rebuilding, had been projected
and started, founded upon the then
existing conditions. IN this last in.
stance they nave not hesitated to
paralyze the business and prospects
Of the whole city. Unionism is all
right, but unionism run riot is all
wrong. And the sooner the union
leaders recognize that changes in
their conditions cannot come by
leaps and bounds without upsettine
not only the calculations and plans
of others, but also themselves, the
sooner they will Put themselves into
