General Trade Conditions.

Duns Review says: Evidences of
trade recession are confined to indus
trial lines, strictly mercantile condi.
tions remaining favorable. The reac-
tionary tendency in iron and steel has
become more marked, further recess
sions being announced in prices and a
slackening of operations noted at some
mills.
Through the process of lowering
quotations new demands have been
stimulated in certain directions, and
consumption is we'll maintained, with
hopeful views expressed regarding the
outlook. While the report Of the lead
ing producers for the September quar-
ter did not equal expectations, with
one exception, the net earnings ex-
ceeded all previous records for the
period and substantial gain was
shown over last year.
Labor troubles will exert an adverse
effect in some industries, but cotton
goods manufacturers are well engaged
and values reflect increased firmness
as result of the high cost of the raw
material.
Bradstreet's says: Trade currents
will run irregularly, with activity
tending to shift from first hands. to
final distributors The rush of fall
trade at primary markets apparently
reached its zenith two weeks ago and
is now lessening, but there is more
doing by interior jobbers. who find
that cool weather and crop movement
have stimulated retail trade.
Special mention is had this week OF
activity in holiday and winter goods.
In industrial lines the feature is the
further quieting down of demand for
| iron and steel. There Is a more quiet
tone in industry generally, and posi-
bly, more idle labor than at any time
since last spring.
Wheat, including flour exports from
the United States and Canada for the
week aggregate 4,108,392 bushels
against 6,408.275 bushels last year.

Danvi!lc. VA, September lathe re-
ccipts have been quite light the past
week as the farmers are still very
busy curing. Double sales have lasted
about an average only Of two hours a
day.
The proportion OF stalk cured" to-
bacco has been much larger in the
breaks this week. and it indicates Il
good scrviccable crop hut not of rs
fine color or quality as has been gen
orally anticipated. Hardly enough Of
the crop has been sold as yet to cstah-
lish prices definitely, but they have
opened up fully as high on nearly all
grades as they did last season.
With one or two exceptions. all the
buyers have entered the market but
so little tobacco has been sold so far
that the probable requirements of the
larger concerns has not as yet been
indicated.
since tho storm OF last week the
weather has been favorable. and that
part OF the crop that was left in the
field has no doubt been somewhat i'm
proved.
Increased receipts are locked for next
week. and as soon rs curing is over
and when the weather is least favor
able heavy receipts will be the result.

same. When he reached King William
County he was told that only the
black goods to be sun cured could be
raised in that region. He examined
the soil, and reached the conclusion
that he could grow the brights and nuc
cure them just as well in King William
County he could in Mecklenburg
or anywhere else. Having been as
signed the management of n large farm
owned by two good ladies. Miss Moore
and Mrs. Averctt, he decided to try Il
few acres in q bright experiment
Accordingly he built two log barns and
supplied them with tues for curing
purposes, and planted the tobacco ac-
cordinS to the rules familiar to bright
tobacco makers in Mecklenburg and
other South Virginia counties His
success was near to perfection, and
last week Mr.. iancey brought to Rich
mond something near thousands
pounds of his low grade brights and
put the same on sale at Hutchcson' $
warehouse. Captain j. \. Hutchinson,
of that house, got busy and had little
or no trouble in selling out the whole
lot to the Imperial Tobacco Company
for 16 cents per pound.
Plenty of Good Lands.
Mr.. Yanccy still has about seven or
eight thousand pounds OF his best
grades of the bright leaf in his barns,
and will place the same on the Rich
mond market in due time. The to-
bacco dealers of Richmond are of the
opinion that these better grades will
average Mr.. Yanccy something like 30
cents per pound. The same land put
in dark tobacco to be un cured would
have brought Il weed that could no;
under the most favorable circum-
stances, brought over cents per pound.
Mr.. Yancey has examined the soil Of
the tobacco growing regions OF King
William, Hanover. Caroline, Louisa and
other counties that grow much OF
the dark weed for sun curing, and 1t
is his opinion that every acre Of this
land will bring the bright just well
and that these counties can become
RS famous for the nuc- cured brights
aS they now are for the dark sun
cured weed
Then again it really costs less money
and less care to handle the brights
than it does to handle the sun cured
and the money results are something;
more than double.
Moreover the growing of the briShts
where the sun-curcd stun is now all
the go Will make Richmond briCht
market that will attract a small army
OF buyers, and the tobacco business
OF Richmond, so far ~ the loose leaf
is concerned, will become greater and
moro varied There will be more buy
crs here and greater competition. An6
| this does not mean that Richmond will
| be any less dark and sun cured
market, but will be also a bright loose
leaf market and just three times a:
much interesting because of that fact
Already numbers OF Mr.. Ianccy':
cignbors are preparing to seed tho
bright goods for cutters, luGs. filters
etc. and they are already cutting logs
| for barns. in which to do their tiu,
| curing FOR another season. The com
! ing Of Mr.. Yanccy to King William
! County seems to be blessing that
| the people knew not of when he landed
| in that good county.
