May Object to Crop Next Year.

Judging from the views expressed
by several prominent men affiliated
with the Burley Tobacco Society, who
have talk ed since the tobacco conver.
tion in Lexington last week. there is
one clause of the committees report
hich does not meet their endorse
me mt and which if finally adopted and
put into the RE tform to be promugat-
ed by the delegated convention called
to meet in that city on January 5, may
prove a troublesome obstacle in the
way Of the hoped for working agree
ment between the independent and the
pool adherents whose crops are now Tin
the Bulley Tobacco Society's pool.
This is the clause that recommends
no pooling of the 1911 crop and the
cutting out of tho 1912 crop by order
ing that no tobacco be grown that
year.
1t is argued that if crop is grown
in 1911, even if pool is formed by
union of all interests that there will
be enough Burley tobacco raised cut
side of the pool in Kentucky, Indiana.
Ohio, Missouri and West Virginia,
which adCed to what the tobacco trust
has already bought this year on the
open market, to supply it for at least
two years yet, and under these cir
cumstances nothing would be accom-
plished by cutting out the 1912 crop,
while the 1909 and 1910 crops held by
the poolers would have to be sacrificed
if disposed of at all.

"Co-education is the western SYSTEM
he said, and in the east and south they
are gradually coming to our view. Baltl-
more is a city, in point. Some years ago,
visiting the grammar schools there, 1 found
segregation was the rule. The present sup

and by degrees he Is establishing co-educa.
ton, and public sentiment is changing &c
his support. An isolated instance or two
OF success achieved through segregation
does not prove the principle. The tendency
is at present nearly all In the direction OF
teaching the boys and girls together. Thar
system has proven its merit so signallS
that the old-time plan is generally being
