HALF CROP ALL
POSSIBLE, SAYS
COL. JOEL FORT
Quality Poor, Manufacturers
Short, And There Is No Rea.
son For Cutting Out
Next Crop

Colonel Joel B. Fort, who is speak
ing in the interest of the tobacco pool,
saws the Lexington Herald, returned
to Lexington Sunday from ten days
tour of Kentucky and Ohio. When
asked about the crop Of tobacco he
said:
81 have been growing tobacco all of
my life and think that have had ex-
perience enough to make me competent
to Judge the present condition of the
cror. Since have been here, more
than two months, have travelled over
every part OF the Burnley growing sect
ion, and have talked with tobacco
growers from every county in the dis
trict.
81 have never seen the prospects for
an average crop of tobacco as poor in
all these years. l have seen tobacco
come out of dry spell into a rainy
spell and make fine tobacco. have
never seen it come out of an exceeding
iy wet spell into dry spell and make
a crop. In all my travels have seen
only one crop large enough to top.
Ordinarily the bulk of the tobacco
should have been topped by the fourth
day Of July.
Hundreds of acres have been aban-
doned on account of the grass and the
weeds during the wet spell Hundreds
of acres have been planted in late corn
and millett, and the tobacco which has
been cultivated, and from which grass
has been taken, is still yellow and
shows no signs of growth. Hundreds
of acres are blooming only a short
distance from the ground, rendering
the plant practically worthless.
When asked what was his estimate
of the percentage of the crop, he said:
Half a Crop Prospect
"Judging from what have seen my
self, and information that | have re-
ceived, from reliable and competent
sources, | am satisfied that there can
not be possibly mare than half crop.
Owing to the late season and the i'm
possibility of satisfactorily curing to-
bacco late, that which is produced will
be of very inferior quality.
Gas to increased acreage, that is all
bosh. That talk has been gotten up
for the purpose Of frightening the farm
err and those who have tobacco in the
pool.
"This will fail of its purpose. The
managers of the Burley Tobacco So
ciety we'll know that there is no surplus
in the hands of the manufacturers and
short crop to follow in 1910 makes
the excellent crop of 1909 now held in
the pool most valuable piece of pro-
perty. These facts are being COM
municated to the poolers. Former dis
satisfaction is disappearing, and the
pool sediment is growing rapidly.

SOLE POWER TO DECLARE POOL
VESTED IN VOTES OF GROWERS
With This Guarantee, District Board Elects To
Fight Out Aggressive Campaign Along
Original Lines--Eventfu Meeting
Adjourns
From The Lexington Herald

The motion which adjourned an
eventful meeting of the District Board
of the Burley Tobocco Society late
Thursday, also ordered members to
buckle on their armor and go forth to
battle as crusaders worthy of their
cause.
The most important result of three
days meeting that love feast closed,
was the unanimous determination to
defend their convictions and not change
a contract that they believed was sea-
worthy. AT least some who came to
champion per cent clause amendment
went away convinced that real peril
had been removed.
WHIRWIND CAMPAIGN TO START
Arguments which had encroached
largely upon the sessions of two days
bore good fruit in disillusioning some
who had been led to believe that
malady afflicted the Burley District;
they departed convinced that designing
quackery was the i'll
The eyes of others we're opened as to
the real source of the dissatisfaction
complained of, and the position and
tactics of the enemy were made clearer.
Confidence was re-established with
courage, and harmonious membership
left for homes sanguine that the assur-
ances they carried would abundantly
satisfy their constituencies and enlist
them in a whirlwind campaign that will
be inaugurated all over the district.
NO COMPROMISE GROUND.
The determination of the board to
burn bridges behind and wage war
without quarter upon menacing inhu-
ences, was manifest. and a fighting
spirit was dominant in the getaway
Conscious of responsibility, they elected
to fearlessly fight out the campaign
upon original lines.
The issue before TIE growers at large
will be either to take an aggressive
stand for the pool and the perpetuation
of the movement, or admit that their
hearts are with the enemy. No COM
promise ground will be sanctioned.
GROWERS TO RAISE POOL ISSUE.
Resolutions adopted by the board
vest in the growers themselves the sole
power to declare the pool in effect and
with the chance of all to gain, they
have the safeguard of nothing to lose.
1t was the confident belief of the
board that in signing his own tobacco
the old pooler will become an active
