NEW YORK June -. 1901.

1t begins to look as though the domes-
tic leaf market had settled down to it's
regular period of between seasons dull
ness; and if such is the case, it is no
more than might be expected at this
time of the year. All the better grades
of old tobaccos are pretty we'll picked,up
and the few remaining lots are held at
good figures. No sales of Importance
have been reported this week.
Sumatra. branch of the market
continues to have the best of it. All
firms holding the new goods are doing
more or less business and a few have
had good substantial week of trading.
Havana present condition of the
Havana market is by no means as active
as importers expected it would be at
this time of year. A little business is
being done every day, but, as one i'm
porter expressed it, the tobacco is going
in "driblets." While some of the trade
may be caught mapping in the fall with
leftover lower grades on their hands,
the importers who have unloaded their
cheaper goods earlier in the season and
who now hold only good, desirable to-
bacco, have no visible cause for alarm as
such goods will always be valuable prop
erty. Sales reported during the week
are not refficient in the aggregate to war
rant their publication.-Leaf

LANCASTER NEW ERA, June IL, 1901.
The home market, after the brief squirt
of last week, has relapsed into it's usual
quietude-the quietude, we mean, that
has been prevailing the greater part Of
the present spring. Small lots of course,
were disposed of to manufacturers; that
is made evident by the heavy cigar out
put of the past month, which was one of
the greatest in our history, but little
beyond a hand mouth business was to
be found.
The past week was a busy one with
the farmers, even though it was dull
one with the packers. They tried to
make up for lost time for the rainy
weather that prevailed for two weeks.
They were in many fields, men, women
and children, and the amount of plants
set out was caution. From what we
personally saw last week, we have come
to the conclusion that great deal of to-
bacco will this year be set by machines,
the tobacco planters being found all over
the county. They not only do their
work better than human hands can, but
so much more rapidly that at critical
times this turns out to be double ad-
vantage. We saw many fields last week
and, while the plants were small in near
ly all, they were, nevertheless, healthy
looking and apparently not much troub,
led by cutworms.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET,
EDGERToN, WIS.,. June 81, 1901.

EDGERToN, Wis, June 81, 1901.
This has been busy week with the
tobacco growers of the state, who are
working long hours transplanting the
new tobacco crop. The work which is
general in all sections is being carried
on under most favorable conditions, the
soil being in excellent order while the
weather is suitable for good stand in
the fields. Several showers have oc-
Cured during the week giving the re-
Gently planted fields prompt start.
The earlier set tobacco is already we'll
rooted and coming forward amazingly
well. The usual complaint from cut
worms is heard requiring some resetting
but their ravages are not greater than
other years. There seems to be an
abundance of plants for the intended
acreage and the completion of the trans
planting promises not so far behind
other seasons as was feared few weeks
ago.
The inquiry after packings of last sea-
sons crop continues though most of the
stock in local hands has already passed
into the hands of large holders. The
American Tobacco Co. are credited with
buying 700cs of '99 of Barnard & Wilder
of Evansville, and 5OOcs lot of e. G.
Hopkins 1900 packing. G. L. Culton
closed out the last of his '99 goods, 100
cases, during the week. Frank Baines
purchased couple small packings of
1900 at Cambridge recently and 64cs of
'99 of Alex Nelson at Deerfeld.
An occasional lot of last years tobacco
is being purchased in the country at
about former prices, but it requires a
good deal of riding to find them.
The shipments out of storage reached
1021cs, 20 carloads for the week past
from this station to all points. Since
last report 3250cs of cigar leaf were ex-
ported from New York.

DEERFIELD, Wis, June IA, 1901.

Everything about the tobacco indus
try seems to be in an encouraging condi-
ton. Several sales of old and new pack
ings have been made within the last
week or ten days. S. E. Simonsen sold
40 cases of old and new at satisfactory
figures, and Alex Nelson has sold his '99
packing at profit. Work in the ware
houses is practically closed except at
Klinefelters where some tips are being
sorted. Planting has been progressing
for week and plants that were expect
ed to be too late are now rapidly getting
up to the required size. The late rains
helped matters very much, bat more is
needed.-News

The buying of the new crop has dwin-

not an active manner. Not over a half
dozen buyers are riding from this mar
ket and these 60 after some crop they
had located before
A large percentage of the tobacco yet
in the hands OF farmers is of the cheaper
grades although there is some good to-
bacco left.
Planting began this week somewhat in
earnest and next week will see the farm
ers all busy. Several farmers are we'll

able growth to the plants and thev are
making good time.
Cased goods are still receiving some
attention and several lots have changed

and Silverthorn, of Footville, sold 100
cases.
Several sorting rooms have closed and
only about a half dozen are in operation.

The business of the present in the val
ley is the transplanting of the new crop.
Plants are not over abundant and many
will have to purchase portion of their
plants. Many new setting machines
have been purchased, but on many fields
the unusual rainfall has kept the soil
so soft that it has been difficult to use
team, and this has compelled quite a
number to resort to the old-time method
of hand setting but the plants as rule,
have been late; some few growers have
used steam heat to bring on the plants.
The bulk of the growers have begun set
ting and few are through. If good
weather should now prevail there is
time enough to secure good crop, but
good care must be given the crop, and
late plants must be nursed up by giving
dose of nitrate of soda or dried blood, or
some other quickly operating fertilizer,
and if possible get them to mature with
the early plants.
Our correspondents write as follows:
Feeding Hills, June 4: Tobacco setting
has we'll begun on those places that are
dry enough to get on with team. The

made beginning, setting two or three
acres. The cut worms have not proved
troublesome as yet" Windsor Locks,

The market continues quiet here. Es
z. Frazee is still buying few crops for
J. Vetterlein & Co., and shipping to
Philadelphia as fast as tobacco is re-
ceived. A small shipment was
made from the Elias Bach q Sons ware
house Monday. Nothing is being done
at the other warehouses. The continu-
Gus rain of the last few weeks has re.
tarded the growth of plants in THE vi
cinity, SO that they are about two weeks
later than usual. Some of the growers
expect to begin transplanting the latter
part of this week or early next week.

A ride through the rural districts
shows the farmers busily engaged in
planting the new crop; a large amount
is already set. Another week of good
weather will about finish up the plant
ing. The first settings are showing up
nicely. Work at the various warehouses
is still being carried forward.
Buyers are still riding, but the pur-
chases are few, as the most of the 1900
crop is now in the buyers hands.

ESIDENTS along the south
ern coast have apparently
Il been arousd to action by
the efforts OF the people
who are endeavoring to save from
extinction the native song and in
sectiverous birds. 1t is said that
strong sentiment is growing in Louisi-
ana for the protection of the sea birds
on the gulf coast. The result of in
vestigations proves conclusivcly that
unless protection is given, the gulls
and water hens will become entirely
extinct in that region within a very

The same is practically true, it Is
declared, of other islands in the neigh

severe laws enacted against the de-
struction of these useful birds and
their eggs and to rigidly enforce them.
The state of New Jersey has had a
similar experience to that of Louisi-
ana, only public sentiment was not
aroused soon enough. Thirty or even
twenty-five years ago sea gulls were
