SALES FOR
LAST WEEK
Largest Opening Week For
Several Years, In Tobac-
co Market.

The sales of tobacco last week ag-
gregated $483. UC0. record. breaker
for opening week.
In 1910 the initial offerings were
10000 pounds; in 1911, n 500 pounds;
in 1912. 40,320 pounds; in 1913, ST.
800 pounds.
Most all of the tobacco was in bad
condition. The wet weather that
began week before last, and which
thoroughly saturated the tot acco
with moisture, continued last week,
and the offerings were in anything
but the proper shape. To add to
this, much of it showed far too little
firing, some of it had been handled
without much care, etc.
Prices showed a decrease from last
year of about 81 to So per hundred
on most grades. The average for
the market was about SIS 60 per hun
dred. While this is much lie than
had been hoped for, it is far better
than the tobacco being a drug on the
market Ii e cotton, and this was what
had been feared and predicted in
many quarters.
Whenever tobacco of good grade
and fair to good condition was struck
it was in active demand, and brought
much higher prices. Dealers say
that tobacco that is too wet is worth
from 81 to So per hundred less and
the quotations of last week bear this
out. At least three farmers sold to-
bacco at very satisfactory average,
these being johnson & Pool, of
Christian county. whose tobacco
brought an average of $3.50; w, F.
Wood. of Fairview. got an average
of $3.50 for his; John @. Thomas, of
Trigg county, got 1925 average for
his.
Prices toward the end of the week
showed more signs of strength, this
being probably dueto smalleroffering
than the great rush on the opening
day, the show ng of some better
grades, and slight Improvement in
the condition as the result of cold
er weather.
The schedule of the prices for the
week was as follows:
Trash $3.50 to So.
Lugs So So" $3.50.
Low Leaf $3.50 to $3.50.
Com Leaf $3.50 to $500.
Med Leaf $500 to $40.
Good Leaf Sill to $l2.

MUTT & JEFF in MEXICO
Our Heroes Develop a Penchant
For Travelling.

Gus Hills fourth seasons offering
of the irrepressible cartoon character
play Mutt & jeff" ca led In Mexi-
co, has been framed up on a more
elaborate and costly scale than the
original production. Undoubtedly
due to the confidence naturally in
spired by the extraordinary success
which has been his since the premier
offering of the Bud Fisher conceit,
of like title. Mutt & Jeff in Mex
leo" represents new school of mus
ical comedy production. Unlike less
active and aggressive producing
managers, Mr.. Hill is continually on
the trail of his attractions, studying
the likes and dislikes of theatregoers,
as well as the work of his actors and
actresses, managers, agents, etc.
Being continually in touch with his
interests he is enabled to judge of
what is best suited and acts accord
ingly. Fully one half of the lines,
situations and business of a Hill pro-
duction is the fruits of his indefatig-
able brain and energy, therefore
Mutt & Jeff in Mexico" contains
the pure essence of real comedy en-
tertainment properly compounded
right from the doctors prescription
and is given in large and pleasant
doses for small price of admission.
Mutt & jeff" and their whole Off
cial family are scheduled to appear
at Hollands Opera House on Satur-
day, Dec. 10.

The snowstorm of Sunday morn
ing was unusually heavy for this
time of year. A total snowfall of
6 inches was recorded. though some
of it melted as it fell, leaving 81
inches on the ground. The rainfall
was also .s5 of an inch. The cold
wave Sunday night sent the mercury
down to degrees above zero.
The sudden changes and weight of
snow caused great damage to tele-
phone and telegraph poles. The

mates its damages in the county at
not less than $1,000. The country
service is very seriously disturbed by
numerous broken poles and snapped

The snow was heavy on the trees
Sunday morning and many branches
were broken off by its weight.
Yesterday the sun was out again
