Extensive experiments have been made by the British Tobacco Grow- ers’ association, whose members view the outlook with optimism.

Local:. difficulties must be ironed out and opposition that arises from a misunderstanding of the plan must be met.” Residents in some of the southern Minnesota counties are said to have confused Minnesota Amendment No. 1 with the Iowa law which, in addi- tion to a tax on autos, carries a tax on land to provide for Iowa high- WED.& THUR.
