Try Hot Water On a Whisky Soak,

The man is grogger, said
the food Inspector. He makes
whisky out of old barrels.
"Grogging is a recognized trade
in some sIums. You get hold of
old whisky barrels wherein spirits
have been maturing for years.
and you pour into these barrels
boiling hot water, and you wait "A
few days.
The result of your waiting is
that the hot water turns to whis-

Great Tobacco Sales at Shell
burne'S Warehouse, Lexington,

SLIPS, $50 lbs. at Stops, average
for 1920 lbs. $3.50. The entire
sale. with the exception of some
wet, damaged tobacco, sold at high
prices.
Mr.. Shelburne says that the
competition is strong on the Lex
ington market. and that the prices
being obtained speak for them
selves. and advises the planters to
bring on their tobacco as soon as
they can get it ready, as he sees no
reason to expect any better prices
for tobacco in soft order. Plant
ers should take into consideration
the fact that the cost of re-drying
tobacco. in connection with the
consequent loss in weight, amounts
to about $3.50 per hundred.
