sHtLBUaNt's TOBACCO REPORT

Richmond, Va, Feb. 23rd, 1909.
Since our last article In this paper the
market has been glutted with tobacco
too high IN order, sour. turkey and hot.
About two thirds OF the breaks last
week were In bad condition, a great deal
OF II hot and funked. Prices under tbesa
condition were lower on all these grades.
Factories were filed with IL. and not
able 20 take care OF IL all; the funked and
bad In order had to be sold at a sacrifice
In every article we have written this
year we have warned people against
this.
This week receipts have dropped off a
great deal, and while there is still a eree
deal OF bad order tobacco being sold
prices on all grades have advanced con-
siderably. We would advise tie shippin.,
belt TO sell some tobacco now, esp. clally
the eommoner grades II they can yet it In
order, that Is, not too heavy.
Caroline, Fluvanna, and Louisa had
better sell their commoner grades at
once, putting them In order to keep cer.
tainly two weeks, as we do not exoect
these grades to advance. and they may
not be as high later as they are now.
Our object In writing these articles Is
to keep the planters informed as to con-
dition on the market; we are doing our
part to get you the highest market
prices. the planters part now Is to put
his tobacco IN good order, II be does we
VIII get him something for It II hard
work can do It.
Yours truly,
Silas Sheiburne & Son.

PROGRESS IN TEMPERANCE CAUSE

public.

The bride is Just past thirty years
OF age and will inherit half OF her
mothers estate of $4,000. 900. The
bridegroom is about sixty-five years
old and is said to be worth $4,000. 600.

mind that her capitulation was wise.
In fact Mrs Green. noted for her
frankness. did not hesitate TO tell Mr..
wilks himself her reason for her hest
fancy.
In a hesrt-toheart talk Mrs. Green
had several days ago with her daugh-
ter's sutton the old lady wound up
somewhat snappishly by saying.
