There were nearly fifty thou sand pounds of twist and other forms of leaf. The eastern district out stripped the west in the production of smoking tobacco, manufacturing thir ty-one million pounds out of a total of fifty millions. The tax paid the gov ernment for manufacturing this to bacco was $96,496,538. The western district paid sixty-two million dollars of this, while the eastern contributed thirty-four million dollars. NEARLY OME FOURTH IN NORTH CAROLINA. The comparison between North Caro lina’s production and that of other Sates does not sink in until the total of the United States is compared with North Ciarolina. North Carolina man- ufactuied ninetv-six million pounds. The entire United States manufactur ed four hundred and thirty-five lion pounds. North Carolina manufac tured nearly one-fourth of all the to bacco manufactured in the United States. The valus of the stamps used in North Carolina’s finished product was seven million dollars. It was thir ty-four million for the United States. Noith Carolina paid ninety-six millions to the government ‘in tobacco taxes. The entile United States contributed four hundred and thirty two millions. This immense product was put out by only forty-two factories, whereas New York State has 578 factories and yet is way down the list in quantity of tobacco manufactured. Virginia has forty-nine factories, yet they man ufactured only twenty-three million pounds. IN THE EASTERN DISTRICT. The eastern district of North Caro lina used six million pounds of to bacco for the manufacture of 268,500 cigarettes, the west none.

The department’ asserts that during November and December 1911, 58 cases of trichinosis terminated latally in one California community. In each instance the disease was traced to sausage, eaten in an uncooked con dition. The disease is c«*used by a parasite, micropic in size, found in hog flesh Narrow Escape.
