We know Carbondale is unusually
hard-pressed for contributions at the
present time for church purposes. But
their liberality will not end at the
doors of the Lutheran church, which
is glad only to make livelihood in a

To Prevent the Grip
Laxative Bromo-Quinine removes the cause, -
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1901-11-22
New YORK, Nov. 13. 1901.

The little boom of last week has blown
over, and the situation has simmered
down to quiet condition of trade. In
quiry is still general, but not very spirit
ed, and sales are of the small order.
Sumatra. week in this branch of
cigar leaf has not been satisfactory one.
Every importer has more or less tobacco
out on inspection, however. and some
very good sales are pending. The pres
ent dullness is only temporary condi-
ton.
Havana Although this market is still
far from being active, there is much
better feeling prevailing in the trade.
Requests for samples from out-of- town
buyers have been more numerous during
the past week than at any time for
months past, and this naturally makes
importers more hopeful of the future.
Fine old goods are receiving most atten-
ton from manufacturers. Among the
sales reported were: go bales 1900 RENE
dios, lst Gays, at 67c; 200 bales do at 63c;
$50 bales 1900 Remedies, I'd caps, at 42c;
75 bales 1901 Partido at p. t.; 187 bales
1901 Vueltas, factory xega, at Sl.4O, and
12O bales O901 Vueltas, factory tobacco,
at S1.3O-all in bond.-Leaf.

Connecticut Valley Tobacco Market.

AS yet we have very little to report
relative to sales of leaf, either new or DID,
Occasionally we hear sale mentioned,
and, for aught we know, it may be of re-
cent sale, or it may be one that occurred
two months ago, and just now reported.
The weather for some time has been ex-
ceptionally dry giving splendid Indian
summer. A damp spell would be well
coined by all of our growers. When it
does come a large quantity of tobacco
will be taken from the poles. We would
suggest to the growers to take down only
so much as they can handle without suf-
fering damage, as it too often happens
from heating and coloring in the pile. 1t
is now very nice and choice. Keep it so.
Avoid putting either fat stems or suck
ers in the bundles, as they too often
cause damage and dealers surely find
them.
Our correspondents write as follows:
Hinsdale, N. H., Nov. s. "Most of the
growers commenced stripping the past
week and are we'll pleased with the
goods. It is fine, light, silky leaf with
out fault. No buyers in the field yet.
We are having fine weather for strip
ping" Warehouse Point, CT: "a por-
ton of our crop was taken down last
week, and it is nice; two or three sales
have been reported in town at from 1871
to 20 cents in the bundle" Whately,
Nov. IL: "There has been quite guam
tity of tobacco taken down. If there is
any sweat it is in the lower tier. The
crop is nice one. Mr.. P. Connolly sold
7 acres at II cents in the bundle to Geo.
Henry" North Hatfield, Nov. IL: 'Only
a few sales since the first squirt two
months ago. William Connolly sold 3
acres at 151s cents to George Henry in
the bundle. Mr. Henry has his assort-
ing rooms at Willis Holden's, North Hat
feld."- ."-Cultivator.

LANCASTER New ERA. Nov. II, 1901.

LANCASTER New ERA. Nov. 12, 1901.
The market was not active during the
past week, although a fair amount of
trade was done, showing that tobacco
must be had by some one to make the
many millions of cigars that are now
turned out from month to month. Both
our home District, the Ninth, and the
two big New York Districts passed all
their previous monthly records, which
shows that manufacturers are consum-
ing more leaf at the present time than
they ever did before. Sooner or later
this must tell on the local market, and
in most satisfactory way. The sales
that have been reported to us are 292
cases of Havana seed, sold by j. A. Vet
terlein; 425 cases sold by M. M. Fry; 5Oa
cases sold by Walter S. Bare, and 1SS'
sold by John D. Skiles; in all, 955 cases.
There is still no movement in the new
crop that is, none to speak Of A few
scattered sales are heard of, now and
then, but they amount to only few
acres. The dry weather for the past
month has interfered greatly with the
stripping of the new crop, and neither
farmers nor packers care to do business
with the tobacco still hanging on the
poles
Pretty much the same situation pre-
walls in the other cigar leaf states at the.
present moment. In Wisconsin, Ohio.
New York and New England more or
less tobacco was sold in the barns, andi
plenty Of trouble is promised in eonses-
quence.
