AN IMPORTANT FOOD LAW.
Heavy Penalties for Selling Articles
OF Food Containing Unhealthy
Ingredients.

The following law was passed at the
last session of the Missouri Legisla-
ture, taking effect August 20, 1899:
SECTION l. That it shall be unlawful for any
person or corporation doing business in this
State to manufacture, sell or offer to sell any
article, compound or preparation for the pur-
pose of being used or which is intended to be
used in the preparation of food in which article,
compound or preparation there is any arsenic,
calomel, 5ismuth, ammonia or alum.
Sec 2. Any person or corporation violating
the provisions of this act shall be deemed guilty
OF misdemeanor and shall, upon conviction,
be fined not less than one hundred dollars,
which shall be paid into and become part of
the road fund of the county in which such fine
is collected
The operation of this law will be
mainly against alum baking powders
But the manufacture or sale of any
article of food or article intended to
be used in food which contains any OF
the substances classed by the law as
unhealthful-from Arsenic to Alum
is absolutely prohibited.

1t was in the true sense of the word a
holiday week. Most of the leaf houses
were closed from Saturday last till We'd
nesday, and for all practical purposes
they could have been kept closed the
entire week. But few sales were made,
and those of no special consequence.
In another column the y. S. Tobacco
Journal presents it's readers with the
statistics the first published the
output of cigars, cigarette and manu-
factured tobacco in the two Metropolitan
districts for the fiscal year which ended
on June 30 last. It will no doubt cause
a surprise to learn that the output de-
creased in every product of the tobacco
industry But the decrease as regards
the cigars is rather more apparent than
real. In the first place, the enormous
increase in the output of cigars in the
last few months of the fiscal year '97-'98
was forced in anticipation of the war
revenue tax. In the second place, the
apparent deficiency is more than made
up by the nearly two hundred million
''little CIGARS" which practically sup
plant the consumption of certain quan-
tity of full sized cigars. And in the third
place, some of the larger factories have
established branch factories in other
districts, where the cheaper grades of
their output are now being manufacture
ed, and which reduce by just so much
the total output of the Metropolitan dis
tricts. Proof of it is the fact that the
9th Pennsylvania District reports an in
crease of nineteen million cigars for the
month of June, an increase probably due
entirely to the opening of a branch
factory in Lancaster by a New York
house.
The inscriptions at Amsterdam are be
ginning to lose all interest for the Ameri-
can market. At the one held last Thurs
day, the 9th inst, only a few hundred
bales were taken by the Americans, the
pick of any number of lots. Not single
house bought as much as a hundred
bales, or even fifty bales of the same
mark-Journal.

Connecticut Valley.

The sales of old tobacco, SO far as our
advices are concerned, are quite insig
nifcant. Really, we have but small
amount of leaf remaining in the growers
hands, and those holding are not anxious
to sell until the sweat is completed. A
movement has commenced in the 80
crop, none of which is as yet topped. We
hear of sales at from 26c to 30c for lots
where the growers reputation had, per
haps, much h to do with the sale; or, as it
is claimed by we'll l-posted parties, that it
sold on it's prospective merits. 1t is con
fidently claimed by well-informed parties
that 30c, even, is not the limit of prices.
We are inclined to depreciate the prac-
tice of selling until the leaf is ready for
the packer to see and Judge of it's quality
when it can be examined and its value
understood.
There seems to be no doubt but the
use of Connecticut wrappers in place and
instead of Sumatra is constantly on the
gain. The only hold the Sumatra has on
the trade is it's appearance. While the
Connecticut leaf has the merit of fine,
fragrant taste that is enjoyed by our best
smokers, it is without any doubt vastly
superior in every way except the looks

Crop Prospects.

The crop and weather bulletin for the
the week give the following encouraging
reports concerning the coming harvest;
The warm, showery weather during
the early part of the week was very ben
eficial to corn, which is fully as far adj
vanced as at this date last year. The
rains have interfered with cultivation
and many fields are weedy, but a good
crop is promised. Winter wheat and rye
are ripening rapidly and some pieces
have been cut. These crops are good
except where winter killed. Oats and
barley are excellent crops. Barley is
we'll filled and beginning to ripen. There
is some complaint of lodging on rich
soil, but generally the crop is in fine
condition. Glover cutting about COM
pleted. Haying delayed by the rains.
Pastures in excellent condition. Pota-
toes are doing fairly we'll. Early varie-
ties ready for market and of fair quality.
Fruit of all kinds abundant and of good
quality.

EDGERToN, Wis, July IA, 1899.


The tobacco remaining in country
hands is still being sought after, which
is each week taking good slices off the
remnants. The recent revival of buying
has probably lifted half the leaf left in
first hands month ago. The following
sales show the trend of prices:
James Craig, 62cs '98 at s, 7, 5&3c.
Geo. n. Hauge, 47cs at Sc.

set are we'll towards bud. Altogether
the prospects are decidedly promising

growth.

New York.
New YORK, July 5, '99.

Since our last report there have been
only two full business days in the leaf
market. Saturday last was cut short, as
usual, by the regular half holiday, and
the doors of nearly every house in the
market remained closed to business until
this morning. To-day has been spent
largely in picking up the threads of last
weeks trading, and the few deals which
have been put through since our last
issue are not worth reporting. At the
present writing the domestic leaf market
is very inactive. Considerable life is evil
dent in Sumatra, and Western buyers
are taking hold of both the old and the
new goods quite freely. The demand for
Porto Rico filters is on the increase, and
a number of transactions have been put
through recently. A sale of 80 bales is
reported this week. The inquiry for
Havana continues steady, but there have
been no deals worthy of especial note

The ideal weather that has prevailed
since transplanting began, has given the
growing crop most remarkable start
toward maturity. There is plenty of
moisture in the soil and warm weather
enough to keep plants growing rapidly.
From all parts of the country come the
same reports. Some complaint about
cutworms is made, and in some instances
portions of fields have been reset. A
few of the earlier plants have leaves
nearly as large as mans hand, and
stand a foot high. The farmers in general
are much pleased at the outlook.
About the warehouses a general quiet
prevails and only an average business
was done. No large sales are reported
