been furnished for same by architect
G. G. Mitchell, of this city. The build
ing will cost $35, 900 and will be mod

bacco, was postponed until next Sat

not get to come, and on account of the
heavy snow and very inclement wealth

siderable interest is being manifested,
and large number will no doubt ex-
pertinent in the culture of tobacco the
coming season. James M. Gaunt, a
former Kentuckian and tobacco grow

bacco can be grown here profitable, as
it is in Greene county.
