Prices of Connecticut valley tobacco have increased, however, sin^e 1916, reaching the maximum in July, 1918, with an increase of 80 per cent over 1916. Tlis increase was due to the great demand for low grades of leaf tobacco, and the decrease of the better grades through injury by storm and frost. The demand for low grades steadily raised the minimum price.
