TOBACCO NO LONGER LUXURY; WAR PROVES ITS IMPORTANCE

BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN Many cigar leaf growers could not understand why there should have been a runaway market in Burley, in the face of a constant decline in the price of cigar leaf, or indeed the absence of any demand whatever for Ohio fillers. In comparison with the various cigar leaf types Burley is really a cheap tobacco. The situation was strained and apparently most unnatural, as Indeed it was, compared with average times and years. Comparatively but a small percentage of our cigar leaf has ever been exported, while Burley has always gone abroad in large quantity, because it has always been the cheaper leaf and more suitable to the needs of foreign manufacturers. Burley is essentially a smoking tobacco; it is used for pipes and in the manufacture of cigarettes, and worlds of it have been used in the manufacture of plug for generations. The bright Burleys are of comparatively recent origin and are really a Missouri and not a Kentucky product. We had occasion to write somewhat extensively as to the development of the Burley market and culture of this particular leaf some years ago, at a time when bright Burley began to be the only leaf grown in many former Dark Burley districts. Demand and Supply. Had the demand for cigar leaf types ranked up with that for the Burleys the former leaf would have undoubtedly brought the most money. But

there was no such inslstant demand;

JEWISH MINISTER URGES CHURCH AID "The crime of the ages is that the Church of Christ does not go to the Jews with the story of God," said Dr. Frank B. Solin, a native Jew and Presbyterian minister in one of Chicago's leading churches, who occupied the pulpit of the First Presbyterian church of this city at vesper services yesterday afternoon, and delivered an address regarding the Jewish question in the world today. "The churches which believe in Jesus Christ go to the Hindu with their message, they take great interest in converting the Japanese, the Korean; they go into South America with their missionaries; they take great interest in the negro question, but they do not take particular interest in my people. "My people are intellectual. Their names are emblazoned on the most important business houses. When they go into the law or into the medical profession they somehow become a great success. They have labor leaders, prima donnas and so on down the line of professions, but the tragedy of the last 1900 years is that we do not have very many Jews who have become interested in the church of God. We have a few of course, but comparatively few compared to the multitudes, and we must come to the sad conclusion that the Jewish people have descended from missionaries to those who badly need missionary teachings." A collection for the national Jewish mission fund was collected following Dr. Solin's address. Dr. Solin has a number of friends in Richmond. He is a Wabash College man, and one of the best known ministers of Chicago. He became a Christian twenty-five years ago.

Out of the pre-war breweries in Ger

many, 12,000 in number, there remain

cause of the war. But we must not lose sight of the fact that we have been exporting no cigar leaf wojth mentioning for a long time. So far as

can be learned and as is reasonable to suppose, if they are going to manufacture any cigars in the war-torn countries they must buy the leaf. Admittedly there is a whole lot of inferior leaf in South American countries, suitable for both cigar and smoking material. And there is, moreover, an accumulation of various grades and types of leaf in Java and Sumatra, which the thrifty Hollander will as speedily as possible, bring to home ports for distribution. But none of this will replace American leaf, wherever it has been previously in favor. More than this the large contingent of our men which will remain abroad will continue to use American made cigars, and to continue to advertise the goodness of our leaf to the foreign manufacturer. America is to the forefront all over Europe, with the exception of the countries with which we have been at war, and as purveyors to the wants of most of the earth, every market will be practically open to welcome all our products. The American cigar leaf grower, and his product, will not be made an exception to this general rule. We predict that more American tobacco of every kind and grade will be sold in Europe in future than ever before in all our history. Millions of foreign soldiers have learned to like it. As civilians these men returning to the arts of peace will spread the gospel of American made tobacco products, of the goodness of American made cigars and of the mild, sweet cirtues of our domestic growths, as against ths usually rank tobaccos of the tropical interiors and rainy coasts. Insofar as the market for choice Havana and the silky Sumatra is concerned there is a world-established demand and one which has little or no bearing on the use of American types of leaf in foreign countries. It is to be hoped that the very high prices obtaining of late for Sumatra will be reduced to the benefit of our manufacturers, for this will also help our domestic trade to the benefit of fillers and binders. It would also reduce the cost of manufacture, to a degree and hasten the time when some of the old time straight prices on popular smokes will be re-established, to an increase in sales and in leaf consumption. Whenever the time comes, and it should now come soon, that tobacco

has the right-of-way on the high seas

and free vessel room at all our ex-' port ports, tobacco will move freely once more. The American packer who is holding high cost leaf will not sit idly with folded hands. H6 will go out after the business. There will be,men : who can "talk the language" in every ; part of Europe wherever it may be thought there is a chance for the J

sale-of our leaf. This appears to us to be a natural and indeed an inevitable conclusion. Packers' National Convention There will be an important meeting of cigar leaf packers, brokers and others ' interested, at Lancaster, Pa., on May 19 and 20. It will be the annual meeting or convention of the national organization and, in view of all the circumstances, should be the most important convention of the leaf trade held in many years. We judge that thi3 question of exports will be handled broadly, and it may be that some policy will be discussed and advocated as to purchase and distribution of the remainder of the 1918 crop, in view of the recent legislation and restrictions, and added taxes on the entire tobacco manufacturing industry. To these, however, all are now becoming accustomed, even the consumer, who always pays the tax. But that is only fair, isn't it? Don't we all work for the consumer, and isn't it he who reaps -the benefits of our combined investments and labor? At the coming national meeting we should be able to gather some reliable statistics as to cigar leaf stocks, conditions, and average prices paid for every grade of leaf entering into this consumption, for the meeting is entirely an affair of the cigar leaf industry. Lancaster Farmers' Organizations Some of the Lancaster county organizations may fittingly be cited as models for our friends in Ohio; notably those whose efforts have resulted in co-operative packing and storing. Take the case of the tobacco colony at Mount Joy, a short distance from Lancaster. The association was capitalized, as a separate corporation, to pack the leaf, store and to insure it and properly care for it as a warehouse asset having lonable value at the banks, and later when coming regulations are in effect to be also good collateral at the district Federal Reserve bank. This is something real and tangible. It forms a basis of credit ani "the means to carry

stocks at the lowest prevailing rates j of interest. They have an agricul- j

we have made previous mention, and j

in which the farmer and tobacco grower holds all the stock. In spite of this fact the Agricultural bank at Lancaster does quite a large city business. Its officers are capable men, well known in the community, and their banking rooms and vaults compare favorably with those of their much older and longer known competitive city banking institutions. The carrying and marketing of tobacco leaf is largely a question of first-class storage facilities and the proper packing of the leaf, to begin with, and then of access to funds to carry until a convenient season or market to sell on and to settle up.

In the interim, if needed to be used! as collateral, tobacco should be as j good a security in the warehouse as I

is "old wheat in the mill;" one of the'

best and most widely used securities in every city or village. ; The time (if such a time ever was

since tobacco came into use), when

toDacco was classed as a luxury, has long since passed. Tobacco now ranks with the prime neessities of life and the world war amply proved this contention. "Simply a habit," you say. Yes, and no. "Man is a bundle of habits," some one wrote long days ago. This, however, does not enter into the discussion. It is accepted that tobacco is a great factor in civilization as to its general

use, and In the raising of revenue, .

either as a state monopoly or through taxation on its handling by private enterprises.

ADVERTISING DRIVE BY EASTERN TOBACCO GROWERS IS PLANNED

SPRINGFIELD. Mass., April 28. Another industrial advertising campaign, involving about $1,000,000, the point of which would be to educate the tobacco consuming public as to the merits ol New England grown tobacco leaf, is being planned by the New England Tobacco Growers' Association. The campaign is being considered along the lines of a three-year run of copy. Joseph W. Alsop, of Avon, Conn., one of the most prominent of the New England tobacco growers, and a cousin of the late Theodore Roosevelt, favors the advertising plan and would assess every tobacco grower $10 a year to meet the cost. This would give the $1,00,000 fund, he says. Deadlock on Price. A curious price situation lies behind the planned campaign. A deadlock exists betwen the growers of Connecticut Valley tobacco and the buyers on price, the result being that many growers have not yet disposed of their 1918 crop. The growers have faith in their tobacco as a quality product and believe an advertising campaign, which would eddcate the public to demand Connecticut Valley tobacco.' would break down the opposition of the cigar manufacturer, who now, it is charged, is controlling the price at a level which makes cigars made of New England tobacco sell below their worth. Neither the farmer nor the manufacturer is disposed to accept smaller profits, and while the deadlock continues millions of dollars worth of tobacco is being tied up for the time being, and the farmers insist that neither he nor the manufacturer who uses New England leaf is making any money.

Pile Sufferers! Clever Ohio Chemisl Says This Great Prescription Taken Internally Has Never Failed.

Even chronic cases of 20 to 30 Tears standing;, with profuse bleedtns;. bare been completely cured tn from three to ten days. No discoverv of recent years In the

field of medicine has caused such a stir amongst the medical profession as the recent discovery that piles can be suc

cessfully- treated and cured at home by a wondernil prescription known to druggists as Mlro Pile Remedy. It has been proved that so called external remedies applied or Inserted Into the rectum cannot cure piles and at the best only give temporary relief. This Is also true of surgical operations which simply remove them after formation, but in no wise acts on the source of the trouble. This prescription, although taken internally. Is not digested in the stomach, but is rapidly passed on unchanged to Jhe intestines in a short time, reaching the exact place where by its soothing, healing action, it first allays all

inflammation and then by direct contact with all ulcers and piles, causes them to heal and disappear forever. It's positively marvelous how speedily it acts. Blessed relief often comes in two or three days at most, even in cases with profuse bleeding that have resisted all known treatments and operation, really wonderful results have been accomplished. The author of this amazing discovery desires all sufferers to know that he does not want a cent of anyone's money unless Miro Pile Remedy decisively conquers even in the worst cases and he has instructed druggists all over the country to guarantee it in every case of blind, bleeding or protruding piles. IMPORTANT: What is known as itching piles are not piles In the true sense of the word, although this condition may accompany a true case of piles. For this condition Miro Pile Ointment has been prepared as in such cases it Is not necessary to take the internal prescription. Adv.

for Distribution off fte Sltamicllaird Oil Company (Indiana)

THE service which, at all times, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is prepared to render its patrons, rests securely upon a solid, foundation of complete distribution. To perfect a system which shall make every product manufactured by the Company instantly available to anyone, anywhere, any time, has been the goal toward which this Company has been working since the day of its organization. As yet this ideal has not been achieved; but the system as it stands is conceded to be the most perfect of its kind in the world. The present equipment for distribution, including grounds, buildings, storage tanks, motor trucks, wagons, etc., represents an investment of more than $30,000,000. There are 27 main stations where complete stocks of . all products are kept on hand. Supporting these are the bulk stations located at 2881 carefully selected points in 11 states. These stations are equipped with storage tanks having a combined capacity of 86,113,650 gallons of gasoline. 66,115,300 gallons of kerosene, and 4,300,000 gallons of lubricating oils. It is necessary to carry this tremendous stock total 156,528,950 gallons at all times to insure quick, convenient service to the patrons of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) wherever they may be, regardless of transportation difficulties or weather conditions. To enable the Company to fulfill its obligations to patrons, and deliver to them the products they require, it is necessary to maintain a fleet of 3700 motor trucks and a caravan of 3500 horse-drawn wagons, either active or in reserve. These tank wagons are so organized that they, at regular intervals, can reach 75 of the homes in the territory at present served by this Company. Supplementing the wagons, an equipment of 530,000 iron barrels, representing an investment of more than 7,000,000, is kept in service to insure the safe delivery of oils and gasoline, even to those remote places where the dark-green tank wagon never has penetrated. For the convenience of the motoring public, a chain of 1300 service stations has been organized and many others are in the course of construction. These stations are prepared at all times to supply the motorist with his requirements of gasoline and lubricating oils in any quantity and at the lowest prices. This, in outline, is the distribution system upon which the service of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) rests. It is the hope of die Company that the time is not far distant when no person in the territory served will be more than five or six miles from a Standard Oil Company (Indiana) service station if he lives in the country, or more than one mile away if he lives in a town or city.
