Tobacco has become one of the
money crops of the South and prices

before the war. This has given on-
couragernent to the farmers and they
_ are getting their finlds in shape

Prices for cigarettes promise to

to Mr. Carrington. It is still too

as to yield but even if the crop
should be short. reserve supplies
