The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1901-11-15

That Wisconsin tobacco should receive
the absorbing attention OF the eastern
markets for several weeks past creates
no surprise among the local trade which
are familiar with the growth, curing and
handling of the 1900 crop. Ever since
it became known that this tobacco
would pass the curing stage practically
free from black rot damage and other
there has been no ques-
ton but this crop would offer the trade
the most desirable binder the state ever
produced. Shrewd dealers who were
first to recognize this fact lost no time
or opportunity to increase their holdings
and the large transactions with local
packers several months since only car
ried out business policy that has since
been amply justified. When the sam
Piles of this crop were exposed in the
eastern markets and the manufacturers
given a chance to become acquainted
with the merits of the goods, they were
not slow to recognize that the tobacco
was worth the advanced price asked.
Packers have thus been able to realize
higher prices for Wisconsin leaf than be-
fore in many years, SIMPLY because the
goods are the best that have ever been
offered the market. It may be long
years before this state is able to offer a
crop equal to it.
~
The Lancaster New Era says it is in
position to give our readers very fair
idea of what has been done during the
season by the government in that local
ity, in its experiments with Cuban seed,
grown for filler purposes, under the di.
rection of Mr.. Massey. The seed was of
the Vuelta Abajo variety the best of all
the Cuban kinds, and came direct from
Cuba. In all eight acres were set out,
in four plots of two acres each, in differ
ent sections of the county, namely: On
land of e. X. Hershey, in Manor town
ship; on land of l.. N. Greider, at Mt
Joy; on land of L. N. Reist, in Mannheim
township, and on the farm of j. F. Root,
at Landisville. The tobacco was cult
vated as Pennsylvania tobacco generally
is, but planted twelve inches apart, in
rows that were three and three and one
half feet apart. Some of this tobacco
grew to the height of eight feet, but the
average was about four and a-half or five
feet, with eighteen leaves to the stock.
The greatest yield is estimated at 1000
pounds to the acre, but not all will go
that high. It is too early to say which
plot will show up best with a filler
growth. The size of the leaves runs from
fourteen to sixteen inches, the most de- |
sirable filler size; the thickness is about |
what is needed. The packers who have |
examined it pronounce it of good quality, |
and are much interested in the final out |
come. 1t is all pole-cured and is now
being stripped, and will at once be put !
into bulk sweat. The present indica- |
tions are that it will prove great ad- |
vance on our local filler types, the seed
leaf and Havana seed. Much interest |
has been manifested in these expert |
ments during the season, and more than |
ever now that it is soon to be put upon |
the market in a marketable condition.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET
EDGERToN, Wis.,. Nov. Is, 1901


Wisconsin leaf still has the call of the
eastern markets where the great bulk of
the sales of the 1900 crop are made. This
tobacco is the most ready seller the state
has offered in years and is bringing bet
ter prices than heretofore. Movements
in the local markets, while confined to
moderate sized lots, are quite numerous.
The Owen & Pepper packing of 60Ocs is
reported sold TO Friedman & Co., Chicago.
F. S. Baines sold 248cs of 1900 and pur-
chased 132cs of w. B. Conrod for the
week; s. B. Heddles 100cs lot to Thayer
for the account of Young & Newman.
The Hoffman packing of '99, put up by
J. L. & M. f. Green, is reported sold to
an eastern manufacturer.
The movement in the new crop is wait
ing the return Of casing weather. So far
the hanging tobacco has not been in
condition to examine since it is cured.
Buying in the Vernon county district is
also suspended for a similar reason, ex-
cept in an occasional instance. Some
riding might be looked for as soon as
curing weather brings about the COM
mencement of stripping.
The shipments out of storage reach a
total of 10 car loads, 493 cases, for the
the week past from this station to all
points. Since last report 750 cases of
cigar leaf were exported from New York.

New YORK, Nov. 6, 1901.

Notwithstanding the interruption of
business which is inevitably caused by a
holiday, and particularly by municipal
election, the first week in November has
been one of considerable activity in to-
bacco trade circles. October closed with
something of boom in Wisconsin leaf,
and the fact that the storm has not been
followed by dead calm is an indication
that expectations of good early busi-
ness are well founded. While new Con-
necticut Havana Seed and new and old
Wisconsin seem to have been favored
grades, there is more or less of demand
for nearly all kinds of domestic leaf.
The feature of the week was the closing
out of an entire packing of 1900 Wiscon-
sin by Water street firm. Several up
town manufacturers have been in the
market during the past few days, and
while they bought cautiously, they

Connecticut Valley Tobacco Market.

There is yet but little effort made to
buy the new crop. And it is we'll that it
is so. When the crop is taken out and
stripped, then it can be shown, and the
buyer can examine the goods and buy
understandingly and know just what he
is buying. This buying in the field, or
by the examining of a few plants on the
poles, is too much like buying in the
dark, and then when the tobacco is de-
livered, then comes the tug of war. The
dealer is, perhaps, disappointed in the
color of the cured leaf, and he swears
fearfully and refuses to receive the crop
only at large reduction from the price
agreed upon, and otherwise he utterly re-
fuses to accept of it's delivery. Too often
he succeeds in cutting the price. The
grower should insist upon payment of
sum of sufficient size to bind the bar
gain, that shall be forfeit if the dealer
declines to live up to his agreement. It.
is quite possible that an effort will be.
made to surround the 1901 crop, as every
ounce of it is wanted in consequence of
the shortage. The recent visit of the
Porto Ricans makes it quite evident that
that island is to play an important role,

New York.
NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 1901,

Wisconsin still holds the attention OF
and boxes went to an uptown manufac-
turing concern at figure near, if not
above, TIC. There are but few houses
which can be counted on the finger tips
of one hand, with any large holdings OF
Wisconsin, the rest either having sold
out completely or hold what they have
for distribution for their regular custo-
mers. The selling out of Wisconsin in
huge blocks to large manufacturers is
but confirmation of the statements
made repeatedly in this place that Wis
consin will be the scarcest article in the
market the coming year, and that veri-
table famine in binder leaf is coming.
Nearly all the large manufacturers are
laying in a second years supply. and
those that hesitate will haye to pay a
considerably advanced price for inferior
goods. The prediction made by the U.
S. Tobacco Journal months ago that
Wisconsin will bring 18c and 20c is not
being poo-hooed as much now as it was
then. For there is no abatement in the
progressive activity of the cigar industry
in spite of the still lingering scare. The
figures published in our columns today
of the output of cigars in the two largest
centers of our cigar industry, the Ninth
Pennsylvania and our Metropolitan dis
tricts, tell a wonderful story. In our
Metropolitan districts the increase the
past month amounted to over twenty-one
millions, and for the ten months OF the
calendar year, which closed on Oct 81
one hundred and twenty-one millions!
And the Ninth Pennsylvania never ex-
perienced such booming month in it's
cigar industry as in October. It's output
was the highest on record and was twen-
ty millions more than only three years
ago in 1898. Why then should the leaf
market not share in this increased vol
ume of business?
The Sumatra market remains fairly
active. Sales seem to be made mostly
for immediate wants. These sales are,
however, only in small lots. They aggre-
gate for the week about $50 bales.
A great improvement is being notice
able in the Havana market. The better
grades of Remedies are again finding
willing buyers and prices have stifened.
Nearly 1900 bales of Remedies were sold
during the week, and they were scatter
ed in smaller lots, besides goodly guam
tity of Vueltas. The fact that the new
Remedies will not be available for months
to come seems to have impressed itself
on the manufacturers, and they are be-
ginning to absorb the old crop again

LANCASTER New ERA, Nov. s, 1901.

LANCASIEh NEW LhA, NOV. y, ISOI.'
The market was not so we'll sustained
last week as for several weeks previous,
and for which there was seemingly no
good reason. This season of the year is,
or, rather used to be, brisk one in this
market, but times and conditions appear
to have changed, and no one can tell
what may turn up in the market tomor-
row. New factors and new methods
have come to the front, which have, in
measure, upset the old order of things,
or at least diverted them into new chan
nels. At the end of the season, how
ever, things appear to have evened up
about as usual The usual volume of
business has been done, even though the
profits are not always as great as is hoped
for. The only sales that have been
brought to our notice are 165cs sold by
Walter S. Bare and 260cs sold by B. F.
Good & Co. For the corresponding week
of last year 847cs were sold.
There has been no general buying of
the new crop SO far. Messrs. Falk & Son
and the American Cigar Company have
been the only ones who have entered
the field. and they have not bought
heavily. 1t is too early even to forecast
the probable prices and future of the
crop. AS many farmers were compelled
to hang part of their tobacco in their
grain barns and other places not speci-
ally intended for curing purposes, there
will be difference in the character and
quality between this kind and that cured
in the regular tobacco barns. We sug-
gest the two kinds be kept separate, as
to mix them may prove disadvantage
to the grower.

EVANSVILLE, Wis, Nov. s, 1901.

The prevailing feature of the local
market is one of extreme quiet. Buyers
are letting the new crop severely alone
and are not even riding. The farmers
need not be discouraged, as every pound
of tobacco, good or bad, will be wanted
ere the robins nest again. Good tobacco
will bring good price.
The cold weather of Monday morning
reached the interior of the sheds and
caught little tobacco uncured, but not
much was uncured at that time. Casing
weather will now be- welcomed by the
farmers.

trade is quiet, owing to period of in

market is docking up little. They
argue that manufacturers are beginning
to realize that the old tobaccos suitable
for Seed and Havana goods will be de-
cidedly scarce before the 1901 Remedies
is ready to work, and that they are now
beginning to pay good prices for first
class goods

old tobacco and number of sales have
been reported during the week. But
few sales of the new crop, however, have
come to notice since last week. A few

the warehouse of Elias Bach & Son and
the shipping of the 1900 packing of the

has not yet been finished. The following
sales of old tobacco have been reported
as made to Albert Calm at prices rang
