mule team hitched to a two-mule i'm
plement saves time and money over
the usual one-mule outfit. In Texas
where the farms are comparatively
large, the two or four mule hitch is
generally used, but the farmers in the
Southeastern States are inclined to de-
pend upon the single rig to do their
blowing, planting and cultivatingy even
where their acreage is large. In pre-
pairing the land for cultivating crops
the southeastern farmer with his one
mule makes five trips across his field
to the Texas farmers one. The Texas
man cultivates both sides of the row
and the middle at single trip, but
one-mule hitch must make two or
three trips to accomplish as much.
Moreover, the single-mule farmer uses
twice as much man labor as does the
chap who drives team. In some
cases the one-mule farmers get around
this difficulty by exchanging mule la

Tobacco Prices for 800
Years Show Height
Reached in 1919

Little information is at hand con-
corning the price of tobacco to grow
ers before 1868. In the
money of the time, the jamestown to-
bacco sent to England in 1618-1620
had a price of "a ga cents a pound,
but by 1859 the price had fallen to sos
cents, and by 1864 to 800 cents. A
price of 152 cents is recorded for the
Virginia and Maryland crop of 1870
of AZ cents for that of 1875, and from
2.3 to 4.56 cents thereafter for the
colonial crops of various years to 1890
The producers average selling price of
the tobacco of 1847 has been estimat-
ed to have been 5 cents a pound; of
1849, cents; and of 1858, 10 cents
per pound. These facts are assem-
bled in an article contained in the
Yearbook of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, recently is
sued.
The annual estimate of the produc-
ers' average price of tobacco by the
Bureau of Crop Estimates began in
1863 with 14.8 cents per pound in
gold. In the decade 1865-1S74 the av-
erage was 9.5 cents, and low water
mark since the Civil War was reach
ed In l895-l904, when the average was
z cents. In one year-1896-the price
was as low as 6 cents. Thereafter
the upward movement of prices
brought tobacco to 10.1 cents per
pound in 1905-1914, 14.7 cents in 1916,
"a cents in 1917, % cents in 1918, and
80 cents in 1919. The gain in price
since 1896 may not have been entirely
due to the diminishing purchasing
power of the dollar. There was in
creased cost of production, and pro-
ducers have been stronger financially
and more able to hold for higher
price. Moreover, the postwar demand
has been unprecedented.

Smokers on the Grill.

Restrictive laws are by reason of
| those who abuse the privileges of
| freedom
And under them those who do not
abuse the privileges of freedom suf-
fer with those who do.
| For instance, there are laws against
driving a motor car more than eight
miles an hour in certain sections of
our cities, but there are times in
these same sections when with care
and judgment car could be driven
fifteen miles an hour in perfect safe

Up In my room, one of the better

was filled with men and good
average American citizens.
One young man, really better dress
ed and appearing than the others, Lit
a match by drawing it across the
counter top Ga safety match will ignite

| cigarette and blew a large volume of
smoke over everybody within range
of him.
The other night I stood at back
window of my home. A man in an
apartment building over on another
street struck match, lighted a.cigar-
cite, threw the match out of the win
dow to fall and set fire on an avn
ing below.
The fire soon spread to other avn
ings on that side of the building, the
fire department was called out and be-
fore the blaze could be extinguished
several hundred dollars worth of
damage had been done by the loss of
awnings, blistered paint and broken
glass.
Tobacco has not the emotional ap-
peal for the prohibition of its sale as
in the case of iquor-no man ever
spent all his weeks wage in a cigar
store in one evening and then went
home to rob his own trunk or throw
rocks at his own house.
Yet some of US have been abusing
the privileges of freedom by burning
carpets, scorching furniture, scratch
ing matches on polished surfaces and
setting fire to houses, and all the
property of others. Tobacco is next if
some of us smokers don't have
