Hold Your Tobacco.

The present low price of tobacco is
evidently working hardship on small
growers, and at this time it does not
look like the price will advance any
time soon. Ii our Judgment it will
prove better for the growers if they
will hold their tobacco. There will
be but little grown this year, and the
amount now on the markets will soon
run out. 1t is a commodity that will
keep if properly handled, and sooner or
later it is bound to bring better prices.
We remember that many years ago
the market was as dull as it is now.
Mr.. JAS. Holiday, Of this county,
priced and shipped six hogsheads to the
Louisville market, and When the sales
day came this tobacco was put upon
the breaks The offer for it was less
than three dollars per hundred. Mr..
Holiday was notified, and he ordered
his tobacco shipped home. From the
railroad he hauled it to his farm and
rolled it into his apple orchard, cover
cred it with boards, and it took the
weather for two seasons. At this
time tobacco went up, and buyer
came to this county and paid Mr.. Hol.
laday something like two thousand
dollars for the six hogsheads 1t did
not cost min anything to hold it, and
he was well paid. 1t may be several
years before prices are better than at
the present, but If you hold your crop
you will eventually come outon top.
