Dear Sir: \ new word has come into
use in paint; it is strong Strong paint
is paint as strong as paint can be- Weak
paint Is paint not SO strong.
IL one paint takes 10 gallons to do a
job and another 10, the 10 gallon paint
is the stronger
Ii one paint wears 10 years, and an
other D. the 10-year paint is the stronger.
The strongest paint is the one that
takes least gallons and wears longest.
But do such differences existo Yes. and
greater. Devoe is the strongest of all.

TOBACCO TRUST In CANADA.
Eutire Output Of Essex and Kent
Counties Bought Up at Fancy Prices
over a Score of Buyers Sent Out
at Once and Whole Crop Purchased
in Two Days, Paying Record. Bre ak
ing Prices,

ing prices.
To corner the entire tobacco output in
Canada, the Imperial Tobacco Co., which
is the Canadian end of the American
Tobacco Co. commonly known as the
"tObaccO trust" is buying up every
pound that can be procured in Essex
and Kent counties-the tobacco prOduc-
ing counties of Ontario-and also all
that can be found in Quebec.
Moreover, the trust is paying fancy
prices for this years crop. Whereas the
normal price is around 3 cents the Im-
perial Tobacco Co. has been paying from
10 to - cents, the latter being the pre-
vaiing rate for the best quality.
According to the Erie Tobacco Co. in
this city. this move on the part of the
trust is aimed at the independents, in
cuding the Windsor firm This, however
/ is denied by Mr.. Gregory, Of Leaning
| ton, manager of the Imperial Co.. who.
in Il telephone conversation with The
Record, stated that his firm was not
concerned about anybody else
I'VE bought up the entire crop be
cause we needed it" stated Mr.. Gregory
''and we will probably need more next
year
| He added that his firm put out .:
buyers. scattering them through Essex
and Kent counties. They offered prices
that took the farmers completely by
storm. The whole crop was bought up
in two days.
Yes, things have been rather strenu
Gus with us said Mr. Gregory. 1--WE
have paid out about half million dol
lars. | want to make it clear that it il
not directed at the independent firms
although it may hurt them. but w,
can help that You know high prices
are being paid just now for peaches
hogs, and most every thing the farmer,
can grow. We do not want the farmers
to go out of the tobacco business anC
we figured that it would be the bes
policy to pay the prices we did. | thinl
the farmers are well satisfied. and
know we are.
Estimating the yield in Essex count,
at four million pounds, this means thai
the farmers will receive 5000, ,OOOfor thi
years crop. which is certainly record
breaker. Kent county will produce an
other million Or two pounds.
The tobacco men all agree that tn
yield this year is better in quality ant
larger in quantity than last year

Windsor, Ontario, Canada, Evening
Record OF Sept. Both. The Mr.
Gregory referred to is Mr.. William I

CLERK III. E. Brown, OF the COrpor-

has been we'll done. All railroads
in the State are shown, together
with proposed roads and lumber
roads. The number of miles OF rail

ought to resign or be deposed if there

upon felons as provided by the last
