Countess Starts Tobacco Farm,
New Irish Industry Boom.

day, that II tobacco growing were al
lowed in ireland, IT would affect tha
colonial interests, and hence a duty Il
% cents a pound was imposed.
PRODUCT COMES HIGH.
Col Everard has been making a
strenuous fight TO get the restrictions
on Irish tobacco growing removed. lie
has succeeded in interesting the Eng
fish department of agriculture in Irish
tobacco growing. and the government
department has started no less than 16
different experimental stations in vari-
Gus parts Of Ireland. If these succeed
the product win nave a fair chance
against American trust goods In the
English market. At present, there are
only one or two places in England
whore Irish tobacco Is sold. and then
the price is too high to make it pay.
The cigarettes work out al cent each
for the lowest grades. This Is owing
entirely to the heavy duty.
HISTORY OF INDUSTRY.
The early history of attempts to
raise the weed in Ireland should inter
est Americans. Their old historical
standby Sir Walter Raleigh, first start
ed a tobacco plantation at Youghal. He
had, az all the world knows. learned
about tobacco during his adventurous
trip 10 the wilds of Virginia, and il
was mainly owing to Ralegh's enter
prise that the use Of tobacco became
general throughout England and Ire
land. 1t was before the act of union
between England and Ireland that the
growing of tobacco was prohibited in
Ireland in order to protect, as has been
said, the American colonies. After 1900,
however, the restrictions We're removed
and then Ireland began TO cultivate to-
bacco so largely that it aroused the
jealousy of England. and again heavy
duties were imposed. This killed the
industry once more, and ii has never
revived since that time.
Al present the principal market FOR
the coarser kinds of Irish tobacco is I'm
the British army and navy. where a
species OF rough chewing and smoking
tobacco is Very popular With the re-
moVal OF the duty and the Introduction
throughout of American ideas of cult
walton, Irish tobacco win soon be able
to give good account Of itself.

Van Wart is an instance. Although
she is about In society a good deal this
summer in her capacity of chaperon
her heart is not in the gaieties. This
is easy to see. Quite tearfully, one of
Miss Van Warts intimates told me the
