STATE BOARD
Makes Protests against Pro-

WHEELING. Oct. 2-Charging
that the proposed advance in freight

embodying vigorous

1t is limited that the advance

are finding it difficult to compete
with the West Virginia mines.

PROSPECTS FOR THE
1915 TOBACCO CROP !
EXCEED LAST YE.A AR
Growers and Government Offic-
ials Predict 100000
Crop 1915 Season.

HUNTINGTON, oct. 2.-The West
Virginia tobacco crop this year far
exceeds all expectations and will like
ly be the largest in years, according
to statements made by local tobacco
men who have been over the district
and have made a survey Of the OUT
look for the 1915 crop. Besides sur
passing last years crop in poundage,
the crop this season shows promise
of a much higher quality and color
It is estimated that about eighty
per cent of the crop has been cut and
that 1t is now In sheds, ready for
stripping. According to figures COM
piled by the Western Tobacco Journal
from statist:cs furnished by the gov
eminent, the crop this year will pro-
duce over Lightweight per cent, which
Inquired in pounds, will make the bur
ley crop in West Virginia about TO-
100000 pounds as compared with only
S,S56,O00 pounds last year.
From the same source, it was esti-
mated on September / that the PROS
pect for the 1915 crop were one per
cent more favorable than the aver
age for the last ten years.
E Kentucky crops. as did those Of all
southern districts, improved wonder
fully during August Prior to that
time the percentage of marketable
crops was below the average. but this
improved until now itiexceeds that OF
former years. The best growing CON
ditiens prevailed in Virginia and Ohio
where ninety per cent Of the entire
crop is assured.
The local warehouses are being
gotten into shape and will be opened
within few weeks to receive early
shipments for the opening of the
markets. The selling. however, will
not be begun until after the first of
December. ss
Local experts say that unless the
tobacco Of the surrounding districts
becomes barn burned or is deprecated
in handling. the quality will exceed
that OF any former year. The tobacco
as whole shows nice bright color
and is Of much better quality than
the 1914 crop.

primer Just issued by the National

greater part of the Seryian export in
pigs, and almost all OF Its export in
cereals, passed thorugh Semendria in
peace times. Its trade has been done
chiefly with Vienna and. Budapest.
Among Its exports are a superior
white grape and a delicious wine.
There is an interesting tradition
connected with the grapes OF Semen
dria. It is told that the Seryian
Prince George Brankoyich brought
cuttings Of the grape vines Of Semen
dria and planted them upon his sun
ny estate In Hungary, when he be-
came. the lord of Tokay there. This
transplanting of tho tSarvfan grapes
took place in the fifteenth century,
and 1t Is from these imported vines
