WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS, November 7, 1902.

A moderate movement of the new crop
continues and buyers seem determined
to keep up their riding so long as any
portion of the crop remains unsold.
Since the casing weather has arrived
buyers are active again and large inroads
are being made in the fraction left in
growers hands. That prices are steadily
maintained is demonstrated by the ap-
pended transactions.

EVANSVILLE, Wis, Nov 5, 1902.
The moist weather of the past two
days have brought the hanging tobacco
into good case, and many of the farmers
have taken a portion of their crop down
preparatory to stripping. The earlier
crops are all cured out, making this pos
sible. Albert Schnell, on Milton avenue,
has already taken down portion of his
crop and has it stripped. The dealers
are anxiously awaiting early deliveries,
that they may be enabled to begin the
asserting season, which will be long
and busy one.
Messrs. Baines & Schnell are pleased
with the condition of their shade grown
tobacco and most of it has been cased up
and is ready for asserting S. B. Heddles
is equally successful with his shade
grown Sumatra.
The damp weather has started the
buyers riding with renewed activity as
the hanging tobacco can be examined
more thoroughly. For about week To-
cal buyers had been rather quiet.
