possession of the buying end of the in
dustry. The buyers paid the growers
good prices in the knowledge that any
grade Of New England tobacco in mer-
charitable condition would be in demand
before it was ready to market. The
fact must not be lost sight of that the
1913 Connecticut Havana Seed yield,
though admittedly binder crop, was
bought at wrapper prices. One does
not have to be an expert mathematlc-
ian to figure out that the reduced per-
centage of wrappers means that the
packer must get pretty stiff price for
binder grades, and he is getting it.

Tenth Annual Report.
The council on medical education.
presented it's tenth annual report,
showing in 1904, when the. council
was created, there were 100 medical
colleges in the United States. many Of
which were organized and conducted
on q purely commercial basis; that,
due largely to the council, the num-
Der OF colleges has been reduced to
about 100, and that, whereas in 1905.
there were only four medical colleges
having q high standard of entrance
requirements, there are now 81 col
1eges which reQdire one or more years
of college work in addition to a stand
ard four years high school course az
condition for entrance.
The council pays a tribute to the
medical colleges OF the south for the
remarkable manner in which they
have grappled with the problems of
medical education. In 1907. the
southern section Of the country had
