90 to 300 cases have been effected during
the past few days. The darker wrapper
grades are not being Disseminated
against as much as was anticipated, and
there is feeling in the market that no
sound tobaccos will go begging.
Several of our packing houses have
been busy this week grading the new
Wisconsin, several thousand samples of
which have been received here during
the past few days. The tobacco exhib-
tied is exceptionally clean and sound,
but the quantity of binder goods is small.
especially in that part grown in the
southern section. For example, one lot
of 933 cases graded out only 301 cases Of
binders, the balance being B grades; and
some other lots showed even a smaller
percentage of binders. Therefore it is
quite evident that quotations for the
better grades of the 1901 Wisconsin will
rule high. 1t has been many years
since the B grades showed up as hand
somely as they do this year. The tobac-
co is as sweet as nut, and has the
requisite gum to make it, with age,
very acceptable filler

The fact that the quite large number
of dealers should be found to commence
in earnest to buy the new crop while yet
on the poles, and offering such prices,
too, has rather startled the growers.
Among the buyers were the American
Tobacco Company, Sutter Brothers, Tay
lor of Westfeld, Hoffman of New York,
L. Gershel & Brother, Hinsdale, Smith
& Co, L. B. Hass of Hartford, and Kaf-
fenburgh of Boston, and their purchases
reached about 1900 cases. The prices
ranged from 20 to 2215 cents, and even
25 cents assorted. These crops were
mostly in East Hartford South Windsor
and that vicinity. The fact that the
early-cut tobacco has cured without any
damage is one reason for these early
sales. The later cut leaf has not yet
reached the stage where it is free from
pole sweat. Up to this time probably
three tifths of the crop is past the sweat
ing stage, and the weather still remains
fayorab BILE. We do not think the acreage
this year is over s per cent. larger than
last year. Then the hailstorms destroy
ed many acres of plants, thus lessening
the acreage somewhat, yet the soundness
of the leaf as compared with the crop of
last year. So good judges think that if
no pole sweat occurs to damage the late
crops, that there will be fully 10 to 1219
per cent. more leaf than the 1901 crop
yielded, and of superior quality.
Our correspondents write as follows:

The seasons tobacco crop is all har-
vested safely, and curing is progressing
under the most favorable conditions.
The crop promises to be considerably
above the average. That the buyers
have faith in the new crop is evidenced
by the avidity with which they pick it
up. A number of buyers have been
scurrying the country and in all about
25O acres have been bought hereabouts,
the American Cigar Go. being the heavy
est buyers. We have only partial list

EDGERToN, Wis, October 3, 1902.
The buying of the new tobacco is be-
ing pushed with about as much vigor as
at any time since the market opened.
The Vernon county district is also re-
ceiving attention again and quite good

do not exceed that of other sections
Buyers are out in all the growing locali-
ties and the aggregate sales of the week
are probably as large as any time of the

A long stretch of damp, wet weather
that has prevailed of late, conditions
that produce shed damage, has caused
some uneasiness among growers, few
of whom built fires in their curing sheds
as preventative. Possibly some dam
age from pole rot has occrued, but it is
hoped not serious enough to cut much
figure. Clearing weather again has put
an end to all these dangers, but growers
need to watch their sheds closely.
The market for cured leaf has devel-
oped no new features and only moder-
ate trade is reported. A sale of 1O0cs
lot was made by G. L. Culton Wednes-
day. Randell & Hartzell sold 26cs of

LANCASTER New ERA, Sept. %, 1902.

The operations in cased tobacco dur
ing the week were quite small in this
city. Nearly the entire volume consisted
of small packings by country dealers.
Some large deals are spoken of as being
in the course of consummation, but the
uncertain "slip twixt the cup and the
lip" may present itself. The sales of
which we have been advised were Toes
by Walter S. Bare; 125cs by Keller Bros.
of Lititz; 200cs by B. S. Kendig, 1900
goods; and 350cs of 1901 goods by Mr..
Musser; in all, 750cs. For the CORES
ponding week of last year the sales were
979cs.
The work of buying the new crop is
still going merrily on. Several other
firms have joined the buying contingent,
one being the large firm of Sutter Bros
Prices have remained pretty steady SO
far, but we learn that cents through
has now been offered for some choice
crops. The weather has grown warmer
during the past week, and this, along
with frequent showers during the past
three or four days, has been of much ad-
vantage to the late tobacco, Of which
there is still great deal outstanding.

New YORK, Sept. 27. 1902.

NEW 1ORk, OopC. ~. lSOl.
Trading during the past week has
been quite satisfactory to the market.
Although no big transactions were eff
fected, sales were going on all the time
and in every type of leaf. Everything
goes, light, dark, sound and damaged
leaf; for manufacturers are beginning to
realize that the market is not stocked
enough to supply their increased de-
mands, with choice and select parcels
for the entire year, SO everything is be-
ing taken at price to do service from
hand to mouth. In consequence, about
1000 boxes went into consumption in
small lots.
Sumatra is moving along in quicker
pace than it has done for many years.
There is not only the need for it, but the
yielding capacity of the leaf offered. as
we'll as the price, seems to be an extra
inducement to use it again in increased
quantities. About 300 bales changed
hands.
And the Havana market is not slow,
either. Of course factory vegas have a
steady call and demand stiff prices.
Good wrappers have also free sale and
ready takers, though the prices are be-
ing kicked against. AS for Remedies,
they are not altogether the neglected
quantity some are complaining of. Good
clean Remedies are in demand and bring
fair prices, while the trash is being taken
to ease nscience.-Jcurnal.

From Sioux City Journal: Few people
realize the enormity of the dairy indus
try in the United States. Even the
dairyman, as a rule, does not realize
the magnitude of the industry in the
aggregate of which his own dairy is q
part. We might say that In round
numbers there are one billion dollars
invested in the dairy industry in the
United States, and the marketable
value of the products therefrom VIII
amount to more h two million dol
lars for every day in the year. The to-
tai amount of the dairy products will.
crowd the one billion lola mark. This
sum represents more than foul times
the annual production in the United
States of gold, silver bullion, pig iron
and wool combined.
OF this enormous amount the terri
tory covered by the northern half of
Iowa, the southern half of Minnesota,
South Dakota east of the Missouri
river and the northeastern portion OF
Nebraska will produce more than four
times as much butter as the same area
anywhere in the world. One peculiar
