lucky farmers who produce about
thirty per cent. Of the country's to-
bacco. have experienced u~nprecedent-
ed prosperity since 1915 and this an
tumn were able TO get nearly three
times the price with which they would
have been content at the beginning OF
the war.
Eighty per cent Of the 25o.O00.O0O
pounds of hurley tobacco used In the
United States comes from Kentucky.
In 1914 prices for all qualities Of leaf.
Tugs and trash averaged between ten
and twelve cents a pound, while the
price for the heavy. dark export type
OF tobacco crown In the black patch
OF western Kentucky climbed from six
cents to sixteen cents.
When the war began tobacco pro-
duction in European countries was
virtually halted and there was a ire
mendous drain on the big stocks Of
American tobacco in Euro pean ware
houses. 1t was the demand made up
on these reserve stocks that sent
prices upward, rather than the over
seas shipments. which were in reality
smaller than those in times of peace.

plies decreased, American exporters
began guying in the American market
to replace the stocks when peace
would bring adequate transportation
facilities.
The amount now held for export,
however, Is not sufficient. in the opin-
ion of big dealers, to replenish foreign
stocks. They say hat this condition.
