TOBACCO CROP

Condition in Cigar Leaf Sections
Are Brighter Reports From
All Over the Country

Frankfort, KY, July 3.-That there
will be no new record made by the
tobacco crop CT the United States In
1911 is a fact CLEARLY indicated by a
thorough canvass just completed in
all the important tobacco-producing
sections of the country. In many
localities the farmers, after having
had a somewhat proloIg d period OF
advancing prices, have become dissat-
isfied with a slight slump in the
market and this has had tendency to
curtail the acreage to certain ex-
tent. The hot, dry weather of the
month of May was unfavorable for
the development of the plants in the
beds and the baked condition of the
soil prevented favorable planting
everywhere.
The very lateness of the season in
many localities renders it little
more difficult than ordinarily to secure
accurate data as to the acreage plant
ed in tobacco this year. In the large
producing sections such as kentucky,
North Carolina, Virginia, Ohio, Tonnes
see, Wisconsin and Connecticut, a
careful canvas has been made, and
the total apparent acreage in ALI ssc-
tons in 1911 amounts to 953,65S
acres.
Computations based on the aver
age yield per acre for the past 10
years in the various states named
indicate a total tobacco yield in the
United States this year of 7S6,410,-
435 pounds. The harvested acreage
in 1910 was estimated at 1,149,S31
acres, with a yield of 9S1,06S,695
pounds.
In the Ohio valley the crop Is
from two to three weeks late and
a great deal depends upon the kind
Of growing weather from this date
on. In the blue grass section OF
kentucky fear of early frosts is al
ready causing some alarm, though
of course this is a little premature
In Wisconsin conditions are report
ed as the most favorable in many
years. The crop is all transplant
ed and the plants reported in
thriving condition, The acreage is
above that of last year, and the out
look seems good.
The apparent area planted to to-
bacco in Kentucky, the greatest to-
bacco-producing section in the coun-
try, or for that matter in the world,
amounts to 2S2,751 acres. The aver
age yield per acre in Kentucky under
present conditions is not far from
$50 pounds. On this basis the 1911
acreage should yield approximately
0,33S,350 pounds of tobacco. The
estimate last fall for the 1910 crop
showed harvested area in Kentucky
amounting to S75,9OS acreas, yielding
1877 ,652 900 pounds of hurley, and 1884,
2S3, 400 pounds OF dark, total OF
336 1885, 400 pounds of tobacco.

COURT OF INQUIRY Held
YESTERDAY MORNING
County Attorney Smith Goes A.
ter Violators Of Law-Sev-
eral Warrants Issued.

A court Of inquiry was held at the,
office of the County Judge yesterday
morning before Judge r. R. Weddin 3
conducted by County Attorney G. e.
Smith. The result of the inquiry is
that several warrants have been is
sued for various PARTIES in the coun-
ty charged Wi III selling spirituous,
vinous and malt liquors in violation
of the law.
1t developed in most instances that
the sales were made under the guise
of selling lingo or some non-intoxi-
can't drink. The office of Collector
of Internal Revenue, at Greensboro,
was called by County Attorney
Smith, over long distance telephone
for the purpose of ascertaining the
names of PARTIES in Ohio county who
have rNid the government license tax
which authorized thdm, so far as the
government is concerned, 10 sell
spirituous, vinous and malt liquors.
He was informed by Chief Daputy
Farmer, of the Collectors office that
such information could net be fur
nished except on written application
for a certified copy Of the license
which has been made by the County
Attorney, and in the course of few
weeks the County Attorney will be
in possession of officially issued cop
les of the license to every psrson in
Ohio county who are authorized by
the government to sell spirituous,vi-
nous and malt liquors. The delay
in furnishing certified copies Is oc-
casioned by reason of the fact that
this is the beginning of the Fiscal
year and the office force in the Col
lector's office have great deal OF
work to do ait this particular period
of the year. The Statutes of Ken
lucky make this possession of govern
ment license prima facia evidence OF
guilt of selling spirituous, Wlnous and
malt liquors and these official docu-
ments will not only show who are
authorized by the government to sell
such intoxicants but will be used by
the County Attorney as evidences
against these to whom they are is
sued.
We are advised by the County At
torney that the inquiry into the IL
hcit sale of intoxicating liquors has
only begun and will continue from
time to time until such Illicit sales
of all intoxicants in Ohio county are
blotted out.
A great dead OF difficulty attends
the enforcement of the local option
laws as it is almost universally the
case that anyone who buys illicitly
attempts TO shield the one from whom
he purchases. There are exceptions
however and 1T is to those who when
called upon TO testify, that make nc
effort 10 shield the violators Of
the law that credit will be due for III
enforcement.

Louisville, KY, July 3.-With the
full returns from twenty five
counties missing In the state
wide Democratic primary held Satur-
day, there are two races which are
still in doubt. These missing coun-
ties are practically all in the Tenth
and Eleventh congressional districts.
The races for lieutenant governor
and state auditor are close contests.
From reports received by the Cour-
ier-Journal in the lieutenant COVER
nor's race James P. Edwards leads
E. j. McDemott 141 votes. These
same returns show Ruby Laffoon
leading Henry NJ, Bosworth 3,711
votes. Meager reports from some OF
the missing counties indicate that
McDermott may overcome Edwards
lead.
The counties missing are claimed
by the Bosworth managers to have
rolled up heavy majorities for their
candidate. Whether Mr.. Bosworth can
gain practically 1000 votes in these
counties is a question. The Laffoon
managers say that their candidate has
won the race by at least 1000.
Great effort was made to obtain
some information concerning the lieu
tenant governor and auditors races
in these counties, but to little avail

Just Hopes.

A gentleman never snatches his
trousers away from his wife when he
discovers her going through his peck
cts. He only hopes she will leave him
enough with which to go downtown in
the morning. He is perfectly welcome
to go through her purse any time and
help himself to anything he can find.
That is what married life means. A
man should not allow his feelings to
be hurt when his wife runs across
loose change or a roll in his pockets;
he ought to play the game and take
such little conjugal pastimes for
granted.

efficiency.
"Now every nerve is steady and my
