kets and new developments in the field
Of commerce, or whether they watch

the Times Herald more satisfactory

A Few Noi Is in Tobacco Affairs.

There was perfect jam of vehicles
heavily loaded with tobacco about the
local warehouses the past week. Sat
urday was the banner day in that line,
however From an early hour in the
morning till dusky evening the streets
were blockaded. and in the vicinity of the
depot and warehouses there We're solid
acres of teamsters waiting to unload
The deli veries were principally to home
dealers and no shipments of bundle
goods have been made to outside points
within few days.
Many farmers Notwithstanding the
great rise in building materials, are
hauling lumber at this time to enlarge
their sheds and build new ones. The
results have been so satisfactory with
growers the past few years that there is
every prospect on which to build the
prediction that the acreage will be in
creased at least one-fourth to one-third
over last years crop.
OF the conditions in the state and
throughout the country, the Edgerton
Tobacco Reporter comments:
There is apparently a marked decline
in the movement of the new leaf. But
few buyers are riding and even these are
Noly luObuOuo ebhu Ing
only on favorable terms. Dealers are
too busily engaged in receiving the new
crop to spend much time increasing
their holdings just at present. A crop
is occasionally sold at about former
quotations but the bulk of sales are
made at prices less than prevailed a few
weeks ago
The excellent qualities of the '9S Wis
consin is certainly making a reputation
for the state that will prove lasting
benefit to u.s. This leaf has proven so
satisfactory to manufacturers for binder
purposes that dealers have found it the
quickest selling goods they carry. Many
of the large factories have recognized
the merits of Wisconsin binders for
years, but a host of small shops
who would never use anything but Con-
necticut, have at last awakened to the
fact that Wisconsin seems SO near filling
the bill that they too have fallen into
line. The difference in price, too, has
great argument in favor of our goods,
and having once broken away from
their idol, it is quite probable they will
continue to use the western grown leaf
All this helps broaden the market field
in domestic use of Wisconsin leaf and
must result in benefit to both dealer and
grower of our state.
