WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET
EDGERToN, WIS, Sept. 81, 100

EDGERTON, WIS.,, Sept. q, 1900.
Interest in tobacco matters seems to
be centered in the movement of the new
crop, which is still going on in the Yer
non county section. The latest informa-
tion we are able to obtain from the field
of operations is that the buying cam
paign is still lively there and more than
o-thirds of the crop is contracted for
to date with the prospect that the bal
ance will be cleaned up. The section
embracing Crawford and Vernon coun-
ties has nearly 5000 acres of tobacco, es-
timated to yield from $4,000 to 10000
cases. Probably the bulk of the sales
have been made by local buyers, though
the Bamberger firm, Sutter Bros, I'm
derhill and Mabbett have each secured
fair sized packings. The average price
is believed to be about S19c round for
bundle delivery. So far no buying in
other localities is reported.
In old leaf the most important trans
actions are the sale of the Shannon 4
Eckhart packing of '99, 60Ocs, at WestEy,
to the Bamberger firm and the Helger-
son & Epseth packing at Viroqua, 120Ocs,
to Reickert & LaBoule, Milwaukee deal
ers.
The first cold wave of the season has
been safely passed without frost enough
to injure the few stray lots of tobacco
outstanding.
The harvest, however, has practically
closed and clearing weather is again fav-
orable TO curing of the shielded leaf
The shipments out of storage amounts
to but 10 carloads, 45Ocs from this sta
ton to all points for the week past.
Since last report 1O5Ocs of cigar leaf
were exported from New York.

asking for first look at their stocks and
an active business can be looked for
when samples are ready to be shown.
II never put in item days of harder
work in my life," remarked western
buyer yesterday, after he had finished
making his purchases and was about
leaving for home. 'In New England to-
bacco the difficulty of making selections,
high prices and hot weather has been a
combination that has made the life of a
buyer anything but picnic. | have
never seen such disparity in the pack
ings as there is this year. No two of
them seem to run alike, either in grad
ing Or quality, and this puts an extra
strain on the gray matter of those who
want to buy" This but echoes the SEN
timents of many of the out of town buy
ers who have visited the New York mar
kets during the past few weeks.
Sumatra. the trade in general
this month does not promise to equal
August in point of the quantity of bust
ness transacted, but August was big
month, and at the present time importers
are disposing of their stocks with readi-
ness that cannot be other than satisfac-
tory.
Havana-The demand for Havana
continues strong, but importers are bad
ly handicapped. What little tobacco
comes over is tied up indefinitely at the
Appraisers stores, and business can only
be carried on in small way.-Leaf.

Sun PRAIRIE, Wis, Sept. IA, 1900.

There has been a general rush among
the tobacco growers to get the crop in
the shed. Help has been somewhat
scarce and this, with the fact that many
have had to enlarge their sheds, has
caused some delay in the work. This
week will see all but few late fields
shielded.
Some fields are badly damaged by
rust. A number of instances have been
reported where the rust was so bad that
the growers would not harvest it. There
has also been some left in the fields
which the wind had torn to an extent
which made it unfit to cut.
Shielded tobacco is curing out in good
condition, the weather being very favor
able. There is danger in some cases on
account of the over -crowding of sheds.
There has been some movement in old
leaf, some buying Of the '99 crop has
been done. Mr.. J. K. Reindahl, local
buyer for Henry Miller, has been riding
in the vicinity of Stoughton and Edger-
ton and has picked up over 1000 cases
of 99 leaf at prices ranging from to 10
cents.-Countryman.

Total 1886

1t will be noted therefore that these fig
ures indicate an increase of nearly 5000
acres over the crop of year ago. Max
ing due allowance for palpable errors in
the Rock county statistics, it is quite pos
sible that the increase ought rather to be
placed at 5000 acres over that of last
year, to yield not less than 10000 cases
more. Were all this tobacco merchant
able leaf it would be fair estimate to
say that the 1885 acres would pro-
duce not far from 10000 cases for the
Wisconsin 1900 crop. This is by far the
largest amount of tobacco ever produced
in the state and would stagger any packer
who might figure on cornering the crop
or the choice tobacco of it either. The
same authority as quoted above gives the
acreage in the state for the past nine

Dealers seem to think the indications
are for better market. There was in
quiry for various kinds of goods which
could not be supplied, and later it is be-
lieved the situation will improve very ma
terially. Many packers are busy exam
lining their packings, but some defer
their sampling a few weeks longer. The
sales that have been brought to our no.
tice show the best record for some weeks,
and are as follows: Kramer & Goldberg
bought 500 cases; III. Mayer sold % cases;
M. M. Fry sold 10 cases and bought 254
G. III. Welchans & Co. sold $50 cases and
A. K. Mann bought 500 cases, in all ,542
cases. For the corresponding week of
last year the sales were All cases.
Several long trips through the county
in various directions gave us a clearer
insight into the condition of the growing
crop. We found that not nearly as
much has been cut as we were led to be-
lieve from the reports that had reached
us.
We are quite sure in saying that in the
parts visited not more than one third has
been housed. We found the crop in
every stage of growth and condition.
Much of the tobacco is still small and
the leaves short and narrow. Some
patches that have been visited by hail
has been plowed under. Very few fields,
we venture to say, will reach the usual
average in weight.

NEW Iohh bCpt. LIZ, IOoO.
The rush in our market continues.
Perhaps never before was the market
cleared out of nearly all it's light wrapper
leaf and Connecticut seconds in as short,
a time as it was during the past two Or
three weeks. But it is only repetition
of the old experience that the scarcer an
article the greater the demand for it,.
But the packers of New England leaf
are nevertheless not happy With one
voice they declare they are passing
through the experience of the Sumatra
importers, from whose importations the
light marks are being sold while they
are left to shift with the balance of the
dark leaf for years. But do not need
fear that their dark wrappers will re-
main on their hands such a length OF
time. At price they will be taken
quickly enough. Of course it will re
duce, if not wipe out altogether, their
profits. But they may console them
selves with the consciousness of having
turned over all the profit to the farmer.
The binder question, however, will be
the problem of the year. There is some
fine, almost ideal, binder leaf in the '99
Wisconsin crop, but it is of a very limit
ed quantity. The Onondaga Will furnish
mostly BIS, and the Big Flats will not be
big factor in the market this year. The
principal sales in filler leaf were of the
99 Zimmers, of which about 1890 boxes
were sold. The market price is reported
to be l6c.
The Sumatra market shared the gen
eral activity, with sales of about 3504
bales. And the Havana market is grad
ually disposing of the old stock. Sales
of the new leaf are impeded by the Ap-
praisers' Department, which is holding:

NEW YORK, Sept. u, 1900.

Out-of- town buyers are here in force
again this week, and healthful activity
prevails throughout the market The ar
rival of the new thinner Spanish has
stirred up little more interest in filters,
and remaining lots of 1898 thinner are
receiving some attention as well as the
new crop. The damage which the grow
ing crop in Ohio recently sustained ought
to bolster up the demand for both the '90
and '99 goods.
The demand for seconds of the New
England tobacco continues to increase
daily, and already several houses have
entirely disposed of their stock of this
grade OF tobacco. All eyes will soon be
turned to the '99 Wisconsin, which must
furnish the bulk of the binder supply.
Already packers have received numerous
letters from manufacturers and dealers
