few sales of tobacco are made, but
prices are not mentioned. 1t fact, there
are but few lots that are held by the
growers, but in many cases they are held
partially on commission the real owner
stipulating the price to be obtained and
really is the factor. The sales that are
reported do not, of course, affect those
packings that are held for the use of
large manufacturers, and SO out of the
market. The new crop has made an ex-
cellent growth during the past mouth,
and is developing nice, clean and al
most perfectly sound leaf, that bids fair
to be perfect crop. Great care should
be taken to allow it to get fully ripe, and

served even though fans have TO be used.
We hear of one barn 325 feet in length,

A late issue of the n. Y. Leaf touches
upon subject that probably has often
been in the minds of tobacco dealers
when it says: The practice of knock
ing" as applied to the new crops of do
mestic tobacco seems to be more gener-
ally INDUCED in than usual this year,
and some of the defamatory reports cir
culated bear the earmarks of malicious
intent. Imperfections can be found in
nearly every crop by pessimistic critics,
but it should be remembered that these
defects are often exaggerated for utter
ior purposes. Prospective buyers would
do we'll to turn deaf ear to this class of
hear-say evidence and suspend Judgment
until they can determine by personal in
spection whether Or not the tobacco is
suitable to their needs.

A cablegram from London, dated Aug.
26th, states that an important conference
OF the tobacco interests has been called
TO take place in London Sept. 18th, in an
effort to curb the fierce rate war which
followed the formation of the rival COM
bines. The meeting will include repre-
sentatiyes of the American Tobacco Co.,
the Imperial Tobacco Co., manufacture
ers, importers and wholesalers, and it is
hoped by those interested that it will re-
suit in community of interest arrange
ment, whereby the trade viii be placed
on more satisfactory footing,

NOTE BOOB SKETCHES.
Edgcrton,

While the buying of the new crop in
for. the past three weeks in the Vernon
county section, the movement has hardly
gained force enough to precipitate gen.
eral buying as yet. Neither has the
movement extended beyond the limits of
the Vernon district embracing that and
Crawford counties, though considerable
riding has been done IN other localities
and some offers made. The information
reaching US is that the price paid on the
contracts so far placed rarely reach 1211a
cents, while the bulk of them range
around the 10 cent mark for bundle de-
livery. Growers have been generally
slow in accepting the offers made and
for this reason the movement has not
reached any great headway. A good
many buyers are still thoroughly can
vassing the country and the aggregate
sales are represented to be several hun
dred acres. However, the general rush
that has been witnessed in that section
for several seasons past has not so far
been experienced. The absence of the
buyers of the American Cigar Co. and
some other large operators from the
moderate methods that prevail.

The statistical tables of the two lead
ing tobacco growing counties of the
state, Dane and Rock, recently published
in these columns, brings to light some
facts that might have escaped notice.
While the acreage devoted to tobacco
growing fuctuates, steady decline in
the area cultivated the past few seasons
in each of these counties despite the fact
that some of the years have been fat
ones and none of them where the crop
has been failure. Many of the grow
ers have learned by experience that the
average farmer with the scarcity of help
that has prevailed of late years, espec-
tally during the harvest season, that they
could properly care for only moderate
sized crop. Hence the tobacco fields
have been reduced to point where the
ordinary help employed upon the place
would care for them. The general ten
dency, therefore, has been to cut down
rather than to increase the acreage
These growers have also learned that it
pays to devote greater care in the Guilt
vation and handling of the crop, turning
their efforts toward securing quality
rather than quantity of tobacco grown.
The increase in the aggregate of tobacco
produced in the state comes rather from
the new growers and the extending of
the tobacco growing section into new
territory than from the enlarging of the
fields in the older growing counties. AL
together this is most hopeful sign.

Read il in His NeWspaper.

George Schaub, well known German
citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is con-
stant reader of the Dayton Volkszeitung.
He knows that this paper aims to adver-
tise only the best in its columns, and
when he saw Chamberlains Pain Balm
advertised therein for lame back, he did
not hesitate in buying bottle of it for
his wife, who for eight weeks had suffered
with the most terrible pains in her back
and could get no relief. He says; cater
using the Pain Balm for few days my
wife said to me, i feel as though born
anew, and before using the entire contents
of the bottle the unbearable pains had en-
tirely vanished and she could again take
up her household duties" He is very
thankful and hopes that all suffering
likewise will hear of her wonderful re
covery, This valuable liniment is for

Strike Troubles.

The tension in the strike regions
is beginning to manifest itself in an
occasional outbreak between the
strikers and the men who are at
work. 1t is unfortunate that the
good order which is being observed
throughout tie anthracite regions
should be disturbed by these en-
counters. Innocent persons often
suffer through these conflicts as was
the case with the little breaker boy
at Wilkes-Barre last night. When
the police fred into the mob of
men, women and children gathered
about colliery the boy was the
only one hurt.
Last night at Lykens men re-
turning from their work were NAL
treated by the strikers and the
situation at that place is regarded
as extremely critical. 1t is still
hoped that peace may bepreserved
and that no act will be committed
which will precipitate 81 serious
outbreak. Sheriff Rciff is endeavor-
ing to uphold the majesty of the
law and has exercised tact in deal
ing with delicate situation.
Organized labor can gain nothing
by interfering with the rights of
those not identified with the unions
and the advice of the leaders that
nothing shall be done to destroy the
confidence of the public in their
cause should be taken. Disorder
and violence will accomplish moth
ing while peaceful methods may do

Making Cool weather.

Col, Henry Hall, in a recent
letter from Washington to the
Pittsburg Times, says: Tired,
probably, of attempting to predict
what the weather will be, Willis l..
Moore chief of the bureau, is now
trying to put it under partial
control. He has, after two years
of experiment, invented machine
or apparatus fer the purpose of
purifying and cooling the air by
gravity and the use of certain
chemicals, the formula of which is,
of course, kept secret Mr.. Moore
has examined over 200 patents
taken out upon machines for this
purpose, and finds that none covers
his invention. In an experiment
made to-day, Mr.. Moore reduced
the temperature in the room from
81 to 81 degrees, or d fall of 20
degrees. The air entering the
apparatus at 81, came out at 80
degrees, and in addition, all noxi-
Gus germs and dust were removed,
as well as two-thirds of the mois-
ture. Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson is enthusiastic over this
invention and says that it will
'1es8en morbidity in humanity and
decrease mortality"
Mr.. Wilson will urge President
Roosevelt to have one of these
machines put in the White House
at once. The cost is said not to
be very great, certainly not SO high
:as to place this invention beyond
the reach of the moderately well-to-
do. No power is used, and Mr..
Moore says that house can be kept
cool in the heat of summer for
about as much as it costs to keep it
warm in winter

Bright Republican Prospects.

The prevailing confidence among
Republican in Washington as to the
ability of the party to carry the
elections this Fall and secure ma
jority in the next House of Repre-
sentatives is only d reflection of the
situation as seen by candid
observers. There was never any
ground for the hope of Democratic
success, so confidently uttered
except the popular belief that off
year elections go against the party
in power and the fear that some
mistakes had been made by the
army in the Philippines which
would reflect on the national
Administration.
Developments have shown that
expectations based on these argu-
ments are not to be trusted. The
superstition in favor of an anti
Administration majority in the
House OF Representatives in a mid
Presidential year has been shattered
again and again. The elections of
1856, in the middle of Grover
Cleveland $ first term, returned a
Democratic majority to the House
of Representatives, and the
electors of 1898, in the middle Of
William McKinley's term returned
a Republican majority, There is
less reason to except an opposition
victory in 1902 than in either of
those years. There are fewer signs
of it, There are fewer arguments
on which to base an expectation of
a politician revulsion now than
then.
The other reason for looking for
a political overthrow, that some
mistake has been made in the
Philippines is admitted even by the
Democrats themselves to be
groundless. The attempt to base
a national campaign on the "water
cure" and a few evidences of
harshness in retaliation for Filipino
treachery has been abandoned by
those who sought to make it. They
have found that the people, instead
of growing enthusiastic over such
issues, have looked with wonder
and disgust at a party defaming
the soldiers of its own country and
seeking to ride into power on
slander and abuse. Such scheme
demands too low an order of
intelligence for it to succeed with
the American people.
The Oregon election indicates
he direction in which the ride is
letting. The largest Republican
majority that State ever gave on
Congressman is a forecast of the
answer the country will return in
November to those who have tried
to make merchandise of the army's
good name. That majority fore
shadows a disappointment for the
Democrats as profound as it will be
merited, and points to the election
of Republican Congress that will
help the Administration maintain
the honor of the cOuntry.-Phila-
