Dizziness is still the talk of the market:
but there is much less cause for it than
for the bug, unprecedented and phenome-
nal boom in Wall street. For there is no
abating in the activity and progress of
the cigar industry and every Individual
cigar manufacturer seems to increase his
output ia spite of the artificial scare
created because of the formation of the
American Cigar Company. The output
is larger than ever before and the out
put OF the industry in our metropolitan
districts for the month of April, just
closed, beats the record of the output of
April OF last year by nearly twenty mil
lions and of any month of April preced-
ing. Considering that the manufactur-
ing strength of the American Cigar Com
pany is not in New York city; consider
ing, furthermore, that the great cigar
factories ia this city have been com
PEELED to transfer the bulk of their out
put to rural districts on account of last
years strike, the fact that the cigar in |
dustry of the metropolitan districts shows |
nevertheless an increase of nearly twenty |
millions for the past month over April of |
last year, when there was no thought of |
the formation of the American Cigar |
Company and of the impending strike,
speaks volumessfor and is the best straw /
for the healthfulness of our cigar indus
try, and is at the same time the severest
of the rot and rubbish
hat our cigar industry is being wiped
)ut by the organization of the American |
Cigar Company. And such being the
act, our leaf market must shortly feel
he beneficial effect of the increasingly
Increasing output of our cigar industry. |
And trading is being done in the mar
ret continually, only it does not assume
he volume of accustomed big individual
transactions. On the whole, however,
BUSINESS is spread the more evenly.

By ahother turn of market condition S
Wisconsin filters have again come into
demand and packers have been actively
hunting these grades again of late. The
outlet is IN expert one and the opening
apparently large enough to take unlim-
tied quantities of low grade tobacco.
For more than a year past filters have
been a drug upon the market. The
uses OF the domestic trade required
heavier 5odied goods than the usual
Visions filler and out side of the needs
of the stemmers and cutters there was
but limited demand for them. Under
such conditions filters became slow
property and packers were glad to dis
pose of them at cost price. This year,
however, our filler grades are of such a
light character that they answer fairly
we'll the demands of foreign binder
trade and dealers engaged in the export
trade have awakened to the fact that a
profitable business can be transacted in
exporting Wisconsin low grades. The
movement is likely to clean the state out
of very large quantity of this class of
goods, astd in great measure accounts
for the sctivity of dealers in gathering
up the remnants of last years crop.

One of the best plans to push the
growth of young tobacco plants, says E.
M. Pace, IN the Wilson IN. Co. Mirror, is
as follows: "Take'a barrel that viii hold
some fifty gallons; fill a guano sack half
fual ofAgeod, rich'stable manure; tie the
sack half way up; then put it in the bar
rel with swamp or branch water (well
water lis not SO good unless You draw it
and let tstand all day.; raise tine bag
several times, and let it down in the
water, using itsas pump. Then lift the
bag above the barrel, putting two sticks
glnder the sack large enough to hold it
and small enough to make the weight
bend the sticks, SO as to sag inc the mid.
die, ;to let theGiquid drop in the barrel.
Remove the bag when the dripping is
wver. Now yeu have barrel of liquid
which lis toosstrong for your plants. So
fill the barrel with swamp sor branch
water, and after pumping it with a hoe
1T lie ready fer use. You might, if you
will, add three pounds of nitrate of soda,
which can be had for about three cents
"a pound from any merchant who han
dies fertilizers. Apply this diquid thus
made everysOther evening for three eve
nings, or tbree times a week, rain or
shine. When this is done you can stand
bysand see the plants grow. A barrel of
water should go over bed'of 100 square
yards; the same proportion to bed
larger or smaller.

forward the belated plant beds where

An unusual warm spell together with a

young plants are commencing to appear
thickly upon the beds. The plants came
very quickly under such conditions

from this time oa good thrifty growth
should be continued. Growers need be

WITHIN fortnight of his reappoint
ment Chief Justice Depue has rendered
his resignation to take effect in November,
when he will have completed term of
thirty-five years on the Supreme Court
bench OF course this revives interest in
the matter of successor, and the grape
vine specials" on the subject are
numerous and varying. The one which
seems to bear the most weight is that
Senator Pitney is to be considered, as a
Justice. The reason for this move is that
Senator Pitney, being formidable candi-
date for the nomination for Governor,
should be removed from the field in order
that Franklin Murphy may have no oppo-
sition. There are many who believe that
Mr.. Murphy would not have serious op-
position if Senator Pitney remained in the
race, but if his retirement can be accom-
plished by any honorable means-and ap-
pointment to the Supreme bench certainly
comes under that head-there cannot be
any objection, for it is generally conceded
that Franklin Murphy is entitled to re-
cognition of the highest kind, and the
Gubernatorial chair is the highest in sight
at present.

has held the Office for two terms, was reel

Senator Sewell and by SO doing voiced the
wishes of the people who elected them as
representatives. The scene was quite diff
ferent from that in Pennsylvania short
time ago. There were no insurgents at
Trenton, no need of undue influence, no
bad feelings when the work was done, no
fear of disruption in the party. Senator
Sewell was again honored because he has
been valuable official and because the
people wanted him returned to the high
seat he has filled with honor to all.
