TOBACCO MARKET. 
Trade in domestic leaf is exceedingly 
dull. Small dealers and retailers are doing 
more comparatively than the larger houses, 
and the bulk of the tobacco that has 
changed hands has been in lots of from 
one to 10 cases. Conditions in Sumatra 
are little better. In western leaf, sales for 
export trade show a slight increase. Sellers 
are firm in their views, particularly in low 
grades.—Tobacco Leaf.

BUSINESS BITS. 
Many farmers are planning an increased 
acreage of corn this season. According 
to present prospects there will be money 
in corn next Fall, and the fertilizer ques¬ 
tion must be considered carefully. Brad¬ 
ley’s old reliable fertilizers may be depend¬ 
ed upon, and can be procured in special 
makes for grass and grain. 
Griffith & Turner Co., of Baltimore, 
Md., are large growers of all kinds of farm 
and garden seeds which possess the ad¬ 
vantages of being grown so far south that 
they quickly spring into life, and produce 
more than usually good results in earliness 
and vigor when planted in localities farther 
north. These people are also headquarters 
for a full and complete line of farm, garden 
and orchard tools, embracing their famous 
single-row corn planters, center-cut over¬ 
lapping disk harrows, spray pumps of all 
kinds, barrel, knapsack, kerosene, etc., 
also all kinds of garden tools, seed drills, 
single and double wheel hoes, plows, hi 11- 
ers, etc. All these things and hundreds of 
others will be found in their large general 
catalogue. Write for it. 
Farmers who intend to build a silo this 
season would do well to get information on 
the subject now and make plans early. We 
are told that some cheap (?) silos being 
shipped from Buffalo, N. Y., are not worth 
putting up when they arrive. Write for 
catalogue of the Green Mountain silo to 
Moseley & Stoddard Mfg. Co., Rutland, Vt. 
Shakespeare never wrote Macbeth. We 
can state this as a positive fact, because 
the poet lived in a time when the lamp- 
chimneys made by Macbeth were unknown. 
If Shakespeare had lived in our day he 
would have written Macbeth, Pittsburgh, 
that “pearl top” or “pearl glass” lamp- 
chimneys never break unless you hit them, 
just as thousands of men and women write 
from all over the globe. Macbeth’s name 
is known wherever lamp-chimneys are 
used. Tf the “best” means anything it 
spells “Macbeth.”
