I take this method of saying to friends and others planting tobacco that I do not think that it will pay you to save tho short dirty leaves that you might get from an early croping. The eoM. of eroping and tim care that wou'd have to bo used to clean this tobacco would cost so much to make it merchantable that it would scarcely pay. All the buyers want tobacco that they can sell, or work to advantage?honoe--dirly, burnt tobacco never brings much of <i pvioo. I want also to advise that yon top your tobacco low enough to avoid having little "sheep oar tips 'as I am advised that the A. T. (a> , will use all the good rip 5 tips that they can get at a good price to the planters. I expect to be at the 1 lorry Tobacco Warehouse to moot all who will bring us their tobacco this year to sell, and I do not tear to say that you will get as much money for your tobar o at t he Horry as you can get anywhere in the world.
