Editor The Daily Item:
AS one interested in the tobacco
planting farmers of the Pee Dee sec
| tion of South Carolina, have followed
closely the arguments and attempts
being put forth by the Tobacco Asso-
citation Of the United States, and by
certain, leaf tobacco dealers Of Vir-
ginia and North Carolina to reduce
the acreage Of fancy brights" tobacco
grown almost exclusively in Eastern
North Carolina and Eastern South
Carolina.
The editor of the News and Courier
recently brings to our attention a few
facts regarding the circulars with
which Virginia and North Carolina
"old belt" tobacco growers and their
representatives are flooding eastern
replying to this circular says in part:
'The Tobacco Association, however,
very naively suggests that as the old
belt can not raise any money crop
but tobacco, therefore the crop
should be curtailcd in the cotton Sec
ton" Not a word is said about cur
tailment in the "old belt Virginia and
North Carolina" but "a conservative
planting in eastern North Carolina
and South Carolina is vigorously urg-
ed."
This is nervy to say the least.l An
other thing in the Tobacco Associa-
tons circular which is hard to un-
derstand is why an over production
Tin 1914 of one-siXth) as put down in
the circular, should have cut the price
one-third. The Tobacco Association
seems much put out about the al
legged doubling of tobacco yields ~

since 1910, (which | think an untrue
statement, but the "old Belt Virginia
and North Carolina" grew in 1913 two
hundred million pounds of tobacco as
against one hundred million pounds
in 1910.
Therefore the "Old belt" seems to
be about as guilty of "oVer produc.
ton" as the fancy bright sections
of eastern North Carolina and South
Carolina. The Tobacco Association
however appears to think that east
crn North and South Carolina are en-
lircly responsible for the alleged

For the past three years the aver

per pound for the entire amount soll.
and it is the opinion of experts that
good prices will continue, as it is es-
timated that the worlds supply is
short Of the demand about one hun
dred million pounds. Hence it will
take five years, with big crops to ma
terially affect prices"
Notwithstanding there was an in
crease in the acreage in 1913 over
preceding years, statistics show a de-
crease of fifty per cent for the past
ten years throughout eastern North
Carolina and South Carolina, where
the fancy brights are grown, and the
consumption of this class of tobacco
has increased over two hundred per
cent. in the same length of time.
Hence the ready demand, and good
prices are paid"

CHALLENGE ARRIVES
 WITH BIG CARGO FISH

the voyage was pleasant in every way
 But one untoward event happened dur ing the voyage and consisted in the loss of one man who was blown away from the ship during heavy fog and who was recovered only with great difficulty. The captain states that sev- eral other vessels engaged in fishing in the southern waters were not so fortunate and several lost some of their men at different periods during the spring.
 The schooner Gallilee lost two men, one of which was picked up again after spending eight days in the dory sub sisting on raw cod. The other man could not be found. The Challenge is the third vessel to leave Nome for a cargo of fish and is the only one that has been successful, the others all failing for one reason or another. Cap tain Matson says that the voyage has demonstrated to his complete satisfac- tion that there are ample opportuni- ties to fish on commercial scale in
 Boring sea and fish are abundant al though the banks are difficult to locate. Once found, however, there is no diffi- culty in securing a cargo. The matter of ascertaining the exact location of the fish banks is the most difficult part of the business, Matson says. There are over twenty thousand fish in the cargo brought by the Challenge and the fish Is of the highest grade, owing to careful selection The entire cargo will be disposed of in the local mar ket in any quantity from a pounld to
 a ton. A. Polet is acting as the dis | tributing agent.

The long overdue schooner Chal- lenger Captain Charles Madsen, arriY- ed in the roadstead at twelve o'clock last night after being away from Nome since October last year. The vessel brings between forty and fifty tons of cod and salmon as a result of the fish ing carried on in the Boring sea side of the Alaska peninsula in addition to about eight hundred salted salmon caught in the waters of Nushagack bay all of which will be placed on the local market.
 Captain Matsen states that he found excellent fishing ground on the north side of the peninsula and had no diff
 ficulty in loading the vessel to the matches in a few days after locating the codbanks. The Challenge wintered at King Cove on the south side of one of the islands of the peninsula group until the middle of May at which time the vessel departed in a search for the nSn1nS STOuIluS. lie cruioe UT tie Nco- sel extended along the coast from False Pass to Bristol Bay and considera- ble number of good fishing points were discovered. At the time of sending the message to A. Polet in early June from the steamer Pavlov of which mention has been previously made, the Challenge had already secured about half of the present load. After send l ing the message Captain Matson states
 that he was caught in a storm and could not locate the fish again for near 1 ly week but the balance of the cargo space was filled within five days there after as the fish were there in thou
 sands. After filling the vessel to the l limit Matson proceeded to Nushagak
 where he laid for some days employing
 the time in catching salmon which
 were also salted down and placed in
 barrels The vessel departed from ! 21st day of the present month and ar
 rived off Sledge isla i'd about five days ago. Captain Matson states that the
 report of Captain Cochran some days
 ago to the effect that he had sighted some vessel resembling the Challenge
 was undoubtedly correct as the Chal- lenge was in the vicinity of the isl- and at that time. Watson says that

 representations to Zapata demanding an explanation of the assault on the person of Allan Mallory, an American, who was dragged from his automobile by Zapata soldiers while en route to the coast during the recent fighting near the Mexican capital. The com munication of the United States also demands an explanation of the alleged attack on the flag which was flying from the machine in which Mallory was travelling and which it is claimed was torn from its staff and trampled under foot by the soldiers.

Arrivals from Flambeau river state that the run of salmon in that stream is the greatest in years and thousands of the fish are fairly crowding each other out of the water in their efforts to get up stream. It is said that the natives caught such considerable mum bers that they were unable to dry them owing to heavy weather and hundreds spoiled. It is said that hundreds of the splendid fish lie rotting on the banks of the stream. Owing doubtless to the muddiness of the water. but few sal mon are being caught in the streams adjacent to town this season and while there is no scarcity in the local mar ket, the fishermen consider their catch very light.
