EVANSVILLE, WIS, Sept. %, '99.

Except in a very few instances the late
crops viii! be in the sheds and out of
danger from frost. All things considered
the '99 crop is one of the largest and
best crops ever grown in the state, and
bids fair to bring to the farmers goodly
amount of money We have learned of
no sales nearer than ten miles of the city.
P H. Torpey, of Center, who sold for 7c
through, being the nearest. Several
sales at to &c have been made near
Orfordville and Footville, also in north
ern Dane county and Vernon county.
Some reports have been current that
nearly 2OO0 acres have been contracted
for in the state, but we think the figures
are greatly exaggerated.
Local dealers have not purchased
pound yet and say they do not care to,
as buying before the crop is cured is a
fruitful source of contention, and they
think the price averages to high. They
claim that there is very large crop in
the state and there will be enough for all
and that prices will lower when the rush
is over. The rush after the pick of '99 is
almost over, but it is liable to begin
afresh at any time.
In old goods fair trade is maintained
although no large sales are reported.
During the past two weeks Rudolph &
Co. have sold 3O0cs of 98 and they an
ticipate good run of business on these
goods.-Farm and Home.

selling it readily.
Havana-The eyes of the trade are
turned toward Cuba, and activity in this
line locally is impossible until trading
begins in the 1899 goods. Owing to the
high prices which tobacco is bringing in
Havana, the winter trade promises to be
forced, hand-to-mouth business at the
best. Buying will be done sparingly,
and importers will have to figure on close
margins.
Sumatra A canvass of the trade shows
very fair business for the week and a
good feeling existing in the market.
Many importers claim that buyers have
already begun to see that there is moth
ing to be gained by waiting for the fall
Inscriptions, which open on Friday, and
many who examined and rejected goods
early in the year are again inquiring for
samples of the same lots. 1t is the
general belief that the supply will be lit
tie, if any, larger than the demand.
Sales reported during the past week
amount to about $50 bales. Leaf.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET,

EDGERToN, WIS, September 29 1899.
The movement in the buying of the
new crop is gradually dwindling away
with indications that the first furry is
about over. The effort now seems to be
confined to the selection of few of the
very early large growth crops for which
very good prices are paid. We learn of
a couple of sales made at Evansville at
&c or better. But nowhere now is there
any general riding being done.
Sales coming to notice since last re-
port are:
John Bolstad, 13a at Sc straight.
Joe Shively, 5a at Sc st.
Henry Searles. 5a at 914c st.
CD. Hamre, Sa at Sc st.
w. D. Hempell, Ga at 74c.
Old leaf has been hunted some in the
growing districts during the week and
we learn VIM. Isaacs sold 27cs of '97 at
lOc and B. Hartwick Secs '9S at D. t.
Packers are disposing of moderate sized
lots, the most important being the sale
or |ZocS OF 9S by T.. l.. CultOn.
Sampling is now the order of the day
in nearly all the warehouses and there
seems to be very little complaint as to
the character of the '99 crop after pass
ing through the curing process.
Samples of the partially cured new
crop are also being shown coming from
the early harvested fields that show sur
prisingly fine tobacco, very much after
the style of the '98, thin, light colored
but sounder leaf.
The shipments out of storage reach
Il car loads, 600 cases, from this station
to all points for the week. Since last
report 665cs of cigar leaf were exported
from New York.

LANCASTER New ERA, Sept 19, '99.

The past week was one of unusual ac-
tivity in the home market. 1t has be-
come known that our 1898 crop is giving
every indication of being very useful
crop for the cigar manufacturers, and
the result is that it is being rapidly
bought up by spectators and cigar
makers It was at one time believed il
was too leafy to suit the wants of the
trade, but it turns out to have as much
good, short tobacco as the average of our
crops.
The following sales and purchases
have been brought to our notice: John
Longenecker sold 459cs to Weaver &
Nissley; Walter S. Bare sold 125cs; G. FL.
Welchans & Co. sold 35Ocs; Isaac Stirk
sold Toes; M. M. Fry bought 118cs from
John g. Rush, 4O3cs from B. G. Melting
er, and 131cs from Amos McAllister, in
all, 652cs: in addition he purchased $50
cases of New England and Western goods
and sold 450cs. M. Kemper 81 Sons. of
Baltimore, bought Martin Sheaffer's
packing and another small one, in all,
about 2OOcs Total transactions, 2,452cs.
The SO crop went into the sheds rapid
ly last week, the fear of frost having. no
doubt, contributed somewhat to that
result, as the nights have been growing
cooler rapidly. Most of the tobacco is,
however, fully ripe, SO no further injury
from that source need be apprehended.

SToUGHToN, Wis, Sept. %, '99.

With the exception of the sampling of
the '99 packing, business remains quiet
at the several warehouses in our city.
0. G. Lee has secured during the week
4lcs of fine goods of the '97 packing of
Jacob Quale at 10c and 34cs of '98 of
Jens Finsmore at 8&5c. 0. K. Roe picked
up about 80 acres of the new crop the
past week, paying from 81 to 7c for
same. Mr.. Roe shipped samples of 600
cases of his '98 packing to New York on
Thursday for inspection by eastern deal
ers. O. Gunderson shipped another car
of booked tobacco Wednesday, consist
ing of 76 cases. Mr.. Gunderson now
ships about two carloads per month

MIAMIsBURG, OHIO, Sept. 20, 80.

Another week of dry weather has
hastended the drying of the tobacco in
the sheds. 1t has been claimed hereto
fore that it should come into damp con-
dition several times to assist the curing
process. What will be the outcome re-
mains to be seen. In speaking of the
September rains last week the word
"about" was substituted for absent.
Buying has become general. Same
buyers for large houses do not appear to
book many contracts, though around
among the farmers. Spanish and seed
leaf are, as yet, the leaders. Dutch not
being bought to great extent.
Quotations remain as last reported, viz:
For choice go Spanish in warehouse, 10

seedleaf, 5 to &c; Dutch, no sales report

There are still many unharvested
crops, and last Friday nights frost is
said to have done damage in some sec
tions. There is plenty of activity in
New York and other markets, with de-
mand for all kinds of goods. Buying of
the hail cut continues, but no quotations
are obtainable at this point.-Gazette.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES.

The sampling of the '99 holdings which
is now being generally done by packers
in this state brings to light some char
acters of this tobacco that is very en-
couraging to it's owners. In the first
place the leaf is thoroughly cured
much more so than is usually found
after one summers sweat. This indi-
Gates that the tobacco has had hard
sweat and so very little raw leaf is to
be found in any of the packings. Some
packers assert that this leaf is in better
condition now to go onto the manufac-
turers tables than the average tobacco
OF this state at two years Of age.
Another striking fact is the unusual
quality of the '98 crop which seems des-
tined to make it favorite of binder to-
baccos in the market. In this respect it
is claimed to be superior to the 81 which
was also we'll thought Of The present
high prices of Connecticut seconds will
also turn the attention of manufacturers
toward Wisconsin '98 as the next best
stock, strengthing the demand and en-
hancing the value of this leaf Packers
generally are more than pleased with
the result of the sampling up to date.
Some damage from black rot is being
encountered but the percentage of loss
from this source is no where as great as
the cost of cleaning the cases IF we are
correctly informed the damage in the
cure in Wisconsin leaf is much below
that of any Of the other cigar leaf states
this season.

Hints From the Cooking SchOOls-The
Right Kind Of Dish Toweling, Etc. :
In one Of the larger cooking schools
of Greater New York all the pupils
were required to furnish for their in
dividual use several articles-three
towels, & :iishcloth, an oven holder and
a pot hclder. Commenting upon this
requirement, a writer in The Ladies
World says: Some of these seemed to
the uninitiated rather unnecessary, but
after practical use, however, one soon
learned to feel the need of these articles
and to appreciate their extreme useful
ness.
The towel for the glasses and dishes
was made of regular barred toweling
cloth-white with dark blue stripes
and cross stripes being preferred to the
white with red stripes, as the latter
color does not always wash we'll. So
many people use crash toweling for the
dishes, which is a mistake since the
lint even in old crash towels, will per.
sist in clinging to the china, making
drying doubly hard.
The towel for the knives, forks and
! other utensils besides the glass and
china was made of crash.
The third towel. which was designed
for hand use, was attached by a safety
pin tc the upper left hand side of the
apron, thus being at all times conven.
lent during the cooking, when one must
wash or rinse ones hands times with
out number.
The dishcloth was made of a 5 inch
square of crash toweling, neatly hem.
med, and, by the way, this was re-
quired to be washed thoroughly with
hot water and soap and hung up to dry
at the close of each lesson. or as il
! would be in home life after each meals
dishes were washed.
The oven holder or cloth was espe'
cia]ly useful, inasmuch as it not only
kept the towels from being used and
soiled on the stove door in removing
pans from the oven, but in preventing
many painful burns which occur SO fire.
quently when removing things from
the oven with only the ordinary towe
to protect ones hands. The oven holder
was made of heavy bedticking, brown
and white, about one-half by third
yard, neatly hemmed.
The pot holder was made from twt
pieces Of crash toweling, circular i,
form (the diameter being about one
eighth cf a yard), interlined with SOM
heavier material and bound around tn
edges with tape
One can scarcely realize the conven
fence Of these articles until one ha
given them trial.
