while the plant il entirely too green. They
should let it got ripe.
We arc sorry to see 20 many many bare
spots in 20 many Of the fields and venture
the prediction that in the future there will
be = larger portion of the crop planted
earlier than it was this year. Replanting
was not success this year many of tho
plants had better be taken in and kept for
next years planting, as they arc very lit
tie larger than good plants now. In
fields now being cut you will find plenty
not larger than a mans hand. and they
were planted within ten days of the origi-
nal planting.
Sampling of the ''s1 " has commenced
and the goods are coming out excellently.
Packers are feeling good and claim to have
one Of the best packings ever put up in
the county.
"cxpected" for the "82" and say buyers
arc around prospecting. Buyers on the
other hand say they will not be in hurry
stripped. We shall sec. One thing we,
have from perfectly reliable grower looks:
as though thGfe was some movement 60,
ing on He says he had letter from ths
party who bought his crop last year that
they would be at his place to buy his crop
inside of two weeks, and also asked him
to be ready to 20 with them to buy moro.
He sold last year for % through, and ex-
poets to get more this season.
We have learned Of sales Of two pack
ings of ''81" on private terms during tho
last week, and prices are said to be very
satisfactory to both buyer aud seller.
Lebanon County Tobacco.
A correspondent sends us tho following
from Shaefferst0Wn, Lebanon county:
Eds. " Lancaster LHelligencer."
As q reader OF your paper i have no
ticed almost weekly reports Of tho grow
ing tobacco crop +; and an We consider our
county not altogether an insignificant part
in the production Of tho weed, wo con
cluded to report our observations while
out among the farmers. We have been
around good deal, and are convinced
that Lebanon county can compete with
either Lancaster, Chester, York or Ju-
niata counties for nice tobacco. While wo
could mention many names that have
extra fine weed, We will coufine ourselfto
only . few parties, viz Brendel, Loose
s. Steinmetz, all Of whom raised weed
on the Brendel farm near Shaeferst0WD,
of . very superior quality, topped medium
low 80 that the leaves are very largo and
regular. We measured q leaf the other
day 46Sx25 and q fraction. Leaves from
36 to 80 inches arc quite common. And,
as the weather is 50 favorable now We ex-
pect to show at least 800 ares of such
goods to your city buyers. Growers are
very busy cutting the weed at present,
and if the season should not bo too damp
SO that it will not rot or burn ON tho poles
you may expect to hear big reports from
old ShaeferstOWn. In regard to white
veins We have NO anxiety, the late rains
have 10 filed the stalks with moisture
that it will cure very slowly and not dry
like hay on the scaff0ld without changing
color as it did last season.

New York Tobacco journal.
A somewhat better inquiry for old goods
was noticeable during the past week, and
while as yet sales are by no means large,
the absolute lethargy that has character
lied our market for 80 many months past
is lacking. The prices realized were not

In new tObaccOs, Wisconsin has taken
the lead no far, the sales amounting to
about 900 cases at II to % cents. This
tobacco, or at least that offered mp to tho
present time, has some resemblance to Su-
matra hence the prevailing preference.

bought new Pennsylvania at this time Of
the year, and the writer. illustrates tho
sentiments Of his class toward this to-
bacc0. 80 ..
"Have you examined the new Penn
syivania %
"Yes."
"What do you think of it?'
"Splendid. 1t is better than the '7s,
'78 and '80." x
"And the price 20
II have been asked between 25 and 30
cents for the bert, and think, compared
with the previous crops uamed, it 10
cheapcr.''
"Y You always bought new Pennsylvania
at this time of the year. Why don't you
buy it now, especially - you thiok it
cheap?"
"Because have learned a lesson.
Pennsylvania is apt to change in all its
features within q few months. II, in .
few months, it looks as it does now, I'll
buy it !; if it doesn't, won't. Good BY"
