In the matter of organization and the gen eral outlook, we have articles from President S. C. Adams and Mr. T. Y. Allen of the Inter-State Tobacco Growers' Association; Dr. T. W. Evau3 and Mr. Jno. M. Foster, of the Dark Tobacco Growers' Association, and Mr. O. L. Joyner, one of the foremost warehousemen and growers in East ern North Carolina. Mr. Adams declares that the auction sale system must give way to the storage plan; Mr. Foster gives an explicit account of how his Association has beat the trust; and Mr. Joyner takes a very hopeful view of the outlook if facet ers will nly-plant -and market wisely. ?On?tage 11 our Prof. Kilgore suggests some good fertilizer formulas, and our several letters on general tobac co culture from progressive farmers cannot fail to be helpful to all growers of the weed. Mr. A. J. Moye, Mr. B. N. Sykes, Mr. G. L. A'llen, and Mr. H. M. Johnson are all men of such recognized ability as tobacco farmers that their words carry double weight. In a word, it is plain that our "Tobacco Edition" ranks not one whit behind the goodly company of crop specials that have pre ceded it. And there are other articles besides those on tobacco Which should not be overlooked, such as the one on page 8 suggesting horseback riding for farm women, Mr. French's plans for fattening lambs, Uncle Jo's poultry suggestions, Dr. Moment's Easter note, A. N. Egg's bright Easter story, and the new chapter in the "Farm Home Beautiful" series. s --ir-I 1 1 4 I r , 1. 1 ,-. JL. ' - - 4 - i e L ' r h' b" i-Jii.ir kww -if 1 . -ax Filling the Tobacco Barn!
