an easier tendency. Prices were we'll

breaks are now anticipated until the
close of the season. rs only a small
quantity of tobacco now remains in
the hands OF farmers.
Trading in re-dried tobaccos for the
week has been quiet.

brought the sum OF S1.665, 067.5l, or an
average of $3.50 per 100.
The Lynchburg report Is as follows:

be handled without watering. and, as
people are afraid to use water at this

tinue very light, there being only So

The amount of tobacco now in the
farmers hands is variously estimated,

mand. with price. firm, no change in
quotations being noted from last week.
Preparations are being made in this
section for an average crop of tohac-

heard in regard to plants. the very dry
weather killing many of them, and in
some instances entire beds have been
destroyed
Unless there is rain soon to bring
out the beds 1t is feared that the crop
may be seriously curtailed.

PARCEL POST DINNERS
Meals Fresh From the Fnrm I'm Time for
City Tnblc-Much Trouble SnNcd.

writer in Farm and Fircside de-
scribes the activities of an Ohio man
and his wife who are making a living
by sending food from the country to
city customers. In packing cases they
send plump young broilers, banked on
one side by perfectly made cheese and
on the other by n bottle OF Jersey
cream. In addition, the following veg
etables are included: green corn. young
potatoes. green beans and shelled peas.
Raspbcrries and other fruits are also
sent in season. The author of the ar
ticle goes on as follows:
why isn't this fine opportunity
for any women who loves to make
things grow. and who owns or Is able
10 rent small place in the first or
second zone from the city?
1T is SO hard at present to procure
competent farm labor that many farm
erS would gladly rent their small ten
ant houses which formerly were used
for farm hands to live in and arc now
vacant and n small tract of land with
them. This little house may be made
quite co2y. and by the judicious use OF
fertilizers the few acres will produce
wonderfully. An agreement should be
made for the privilege of renting the
ground for n fixed number of years, so
that the labor and expense OF setting
small fruit need not be lost By the
termination of the lease.
Such things as blackberrics, rasp-
berries and Strawberries bring in quick
returns. All kinds OF vegetables should
be raised. and 1t is surprising how
many kinds there are and how large n
yield may be had. One horse Will be
necessary to get the ground in good
condition and tend the truck. A good
cow or two and few dozen chickens
Will add greatly to the income"

Farmers throughout this section of

 Gov. Strong appointed committee of three to inspect the credentials of the delegates, but beyond this there was very little business transacted. Several short addresses were made, a general reunion had and the meeting adjourned to o'clock this afternoon. at which time 1t is confidently ex- pected that the old breach will be found to have healed.
