makes them possible. Theories, based on the belief that man is material, have been tested for centuries and found wanting. In this age ii is possi- ble to work from a higher basis, namely, that man is spiritual and i'm mortal now. The wonderful works already accomplished in the healing of sickness and the overcoming of sin, is most convincing evidence that this teaching is correct.
 CHRISTIAN SCIENCE HEALING.
 Many persons are reluctant to ac- knowledge that God is willing to do for mortals what they have failed to do Tor themselves, working from the basis of belief in material cause and erect. When material methods prove iheiIectual there IS little hope that the heed can be met in any other way, ana not lnfrequently mortais have con- c'uded that God is in some way re- sponsible for the outcome.
 When the sick have been healed. without the aid of drugs or any visible materlal agency, and it cannot be de- iileo' there is a tendency to attribute !he good work to some influence that material in it's nature. When Jesus healed the sick. the restoration was so complete that it could not be questioned, However, there were .hose who refused to believe that God had anything to do with it and they sald This fellow doth not cast out oeVils' but by Beelzebub the prince of devils" p''"so VI

material sense of things is believed to be the reality of existence, mortals will have material sense of cause.
 Christian Science reverses the usual order and starts with cause. The scriptural teaching that God is spirit. Life, Love. and Truth becomes the basis of thought and demonstration. The mortal belief about man and the universe is no more correct than is the material. finite conception of God. The seeker for truth must become as a little child and learn to behold creation alright because he is gaining the true idea of God. Then he be- gins to comprehend the scriptural teaching that man was created in Gods image and that nothing less than the divine likeness can be man.
 THE TRUE IDEA OF GOD.
 The power of good in Christian Science is due to it's spiritual rec ognition of God and man. Every re- ligious teaching is based upon some belief concerning the Supreme Being. A man S religious views must of neces- ssty be in accord with his conception of the infinite. What a man does rather than what he says. is in har- meny with his thought of God and shows whether he believes God is directly concerned with the experi. e1ces and affairs of everyday life and to what extent it is a mans duty or privilege, to rely on Him for the help that is needed to work out har- mony in what are termed his material associations and environments
 Few persons will deny that mortals could, with profit to themselves and great good to others, exercise moro practical faith i'll Gods ever-presence and omnipotenoe. Since mans reliance on God cannot be out of pro. portion to the correctness of his be. lief, 1t is manifest that the great uu. man need is to gain that idea of God which makes possible the forever un- folding of faith and the constant and consistent application of the eternal truths revealed in the Scriptures.
 MANS RELATION TO GOD.
 Next in importance to the ouestion What is God? is the considera tion of mans relation to his creator. In the Elohistic account of creation. as given Tn the first chapter of Genesis We read that man was created in inc image and likeness of God TbiS scientific statement is not in harmony with the generally accepted theory that man Is material being who is suolect to, and governed by. material laws.
 Ssn. sickness, and death have re- suited rom the belief that man has eNlstence apart from God. Every dis coraant condition known to human>ex- perience, Is the outgrowth of this tunoamental error. The effectual remedy TOT these evils is the teaching wnich goes to the root of~the matter ana destroys the false belief which

LANCASTER, Pa, June 21, 10

LANCASTER, Pa, June Il, 1916.
A decided furry has been created in
local tobacco circles by confirmation of
the rumors that agents of big outside
tobacco concerns, one of them being
the United Cigar Manufacturers Co.,
were contracting with this county s
growers for the 1916 crop, which is not
yet planted. Of course, it is under
stood that the contracts have been Of
fered only to growers who have the
reputation of growing Al crops. What
the general price offered is cannot be
definitely stated, but few growers
have been offered fifteen and three.
A provision is attached to all contracts,
calling for the delivery Of tobacco of a
specified standard.
1t looks as though the prophets who
had their say about the 1915 crop had
gone asUray, if we may judge by the
prices being paid lately for this tobac-
CO, which cost the packers nine and a
half and ten and half cents. The
earlier packings sold brought fifteen
and fifteen and half cents, but within
a week 500 cases were sold for eighteen
and half cents by Siegler Bros. of
Lancaster. Earlier in the sweating
period the 1915 was alleged to show an
unusually large percentage of black
rot, and later, of must. However, it
seems as though there is nothing wrong
with the new packing. The prices be-
ing, paid are not evidence of the exist
ence of an inferior packing.

NEw YORK. June "a, 191,


The cry now in the leaf market is,
what will the manufacturers do when
the Fall comes, as to securing leaf to-
bacco to replenish their fast depicting
stocks? Not in many years past has
there been such consistent demand
for all grades of tobacco as exists at
this time. OF course, we have former
ly had our spells of unusual demand for
either one commodity or another, but
in this instance all grades of tobacco
whether it is high-priced imported Su-
matra or the stagnant 1913 Pennsyl-
vania crop are in demand, none of them
being sighted in the least. Conditions
such as these have not developed in our
leaf market for many years. 4 When
manufacturers are compelled to come
down to the market and practically beg
for shipment of even a small lot of
tobacco to tide them over, it is indeed
something to be marveled at. Only the
other day well-known cigar manufac-
turer pleaded with Porto Rican leaf
packing house to be good enough to
ship MIN just few barrels of stripped
tobacco, in order that his factory might
be kept working until larger ship
ment arrives in a few weeks hence.
These conditions are likely to become
worse rather than improve, as was pre-
dicted in these columns some time since.
From present indications it appears
that cigar consumption will increase,
whereas the available supply of raw
material is fast diminishing. journal.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, June 20, 1916.
Transplanting of the Connecticut val
ley crop has progressed rapidly. Some
of the growers around Suffield have
already cultivated and hoed once that
portion of their crop that was set out
first. This year in the town of Sufield
the acreage is expected to reach 4600,
including about 1000 acres of shade
grown.
Connecticut valley tobacco growers
are especially hard hit this year by the
labor shortage Around Simsbury, CT,
women are being employed on the to-
bacco setting machines and growers
who have tried this experiment report
it an entire success. Women are also
being employed in helping to put on
cloth for the shade-grown crop. A
large number of negroes are on the
way north for work in the fields of the
American Sumatra Tobacco company
Most of these are expert help who
have been employed on southern plant
ations of the company. The close of
this week will see practically all of the
crop around Simsbury transplanted.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS, June 80, 1916.


Under more favorable weather condi-
tions the planting of the new tobacco
crop has gone forward rapidly during
the week with promise that, except
with a few belated growers, will be
fairly we'll completed by July 1st,
which is within the usual limits in this
state. The chances are too that there
are plenty of plants of suitable size to
supply the intended acreage in each
community. The reported injury from
cut worms and other insects in the new
set fields are less than the ordinary
year. The present outlook TO see the
crop well started growing in the fields
is quite encouraging.
There is fairly good demand for old
leaf of all descriptions. Packers are
holding the lightest stocks in yea 8
with prospect of greater shortae e
ever known before the new leaf come
on the market
The only sale reaching us is 65c
lot of IA sold by Gunderson Bros. of
London to C. H. Spitzner & Sons. Ex-
porters are still reaching for anything
suitable for their needs.
The shipments out of storage reach
only about 500cs from this market
since last report.
