LARGE TOBACCO SALES

Growers of Weed Got Much Good Christmas
Money--Sales of Burey Unexpectedly Large.
But Few Sun Cured Wrappers Shown.

Notwithstanding the cold and harsh
weather the receipts and sales of loose
leaf tobacco on all of the Virginia

large the past week. This is always
the case the week before Christmas.
for In spite of the fact that ma
jority of the tobacco growers in the

they cannot get over the old-time
habit of marketing the weed to get
christmas money
The sales in Richmond opened Mon
day with large offerings of shipped
sun cured tobaccos and an unexpectedly
large supply of Burnley The Burley

Ohio and Virginia farms, and in the
aggregate amounted to something like
25U,000 pounds. The bulk of these large
receipts were sold on Monday, but all

GREAT INDUSTRY

The Old Virginia Cook Is Get

Them Left
o LD-TlME REcoLLEcTloNs
A Remedy That Comes BY Way
OF a Mere Haphazard
Suggestion.
oLD-TlME RECOLLECTIoNS
BY j. NJ. BELL.

In considering the industrial fea-
lures of Southern farm life at the pres
ent writing, perhaps there is no more
important branch of labor than the
farm cook. Country airis bracing, and
generally fosters and at the same time,
as it were. perpetuates hearty appe-
tite, which must be appeased thrice
daily. Hence it can be readily seen
that the person who prepares these
three meals for Ss5 days in the year is
not only an important factor, but
really the most important factor in the
economy scheme on the farm.
To those familiar with country life
in the South it will hardly be necessary
to emphasize the fact that the profit
able running of the plantations them
the qualities of the dusky queen of the
kitchen. For II she was initiated in
the mysteries of cuisine and at the
same time put her knowledge to every
day use was cheerful and willing in
the discharge of her heavy duties, an
air of happiness pervaded the atmos-
phere OF the whole place.
With three regular meals, we'll
cooked and served, not only the owner
and his family, but all the negro farms
hands, We're IN mood to push the
work of the plantation along, On the
other hand, surly, slpshod cook made
trouble all the time. Irregular and
badly cooked meals tostered a spirit OF
discomfort in the family and among the
farm hands, reducing the pleasures of
country life to the minimum, If the
products of field garden, orchard and
poultry yard were TO be practically
ruined by had cooking. Therefore the
family got little satisfaction out Of
good bacon and cornmeal can be easily
converted into mighty poor fare IL
