NOTE BOOK SKETCHES.

The report Of the buying of few lots
of the new crop in the field in the Yer
non county district has reached us,
though made under circumstances that
will hardly induce general buying at this
time. This conclusion is based upon the
opinion of other dealers who have been
in the field during the week. Mr.. G. T.
Mabbett is credited with making few
contracts possibly half dozen all told
at prices ranging from 10 to l21a cents
for bundle delivery. These contracts
are made with growers whom the pur-
chaser has dealt with for several years
and he is satisfied to take his chances on
the present crop at the figures men
toned. It is reported that few lots
have been contracted for by other buy
ers, but altogether the amount pur-
chased is hardly enough to create much
stir or to induce other packers to enter
the field The movement of buyers,
however, is being closely watched and if
the large operators, like the American
Cigar Co., should enter the lists, there
might be a general scramble for the
growing fields without delay. Mr.. Nab
bett brings the information that the
crop in the Vernon, county district is
nearly two weeks later than in the lower
counties and has not much advantage in
general appearance.

We present herewith the first stats
tics regarding the extent of the present
tobacco crop. The figures presented are
the result of the census returns of Dane
county, the largest growing county in
state
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1902-08-22

It will be noted from the above that
the town of Dunkirk holds the record as
the largest growing township this year
with 1875 acres, while Pleasant Springs
and Christiana are close seconds. Each
of these towns in other years exceeded
the area of the banner township. Add
ing the acreage of Albion to the above
mentioned towns, all producing more
than 1000 acres, and it will be found that
the combined area equals pretty nearly
half of all the tobacco growing in the
county. In 1900 Dane county produced
1901 acres, an amount even greater
than the present crop. The yield in
pounds of the 80 crop was nearly four
million pounds greater than the figures
show was raised 10 1901.

The writer paid visit to the shade
grown tobacco field of S. B. Heddles &
Son at GAINESVILLE on Thursday last. A
two-acre field in the western limits of
the city was placed under canvas at an
expense of about $1,000 It was planted
to Sumatra tobacco which is now about
ready for the harvest. The tenting
reaches to the ground on every side, en-
tirely enclosing the plat, which is entered
by doors, cloth screened With the ex-
ception of one corner on which the plants
were drowned out early in the season,
the tobacco has reached a remarkably
full growth. Many of the plants which
have not been topped reach the roof of
the tent, nine feet in height. It was
beautiful sight to see this large field in
full bloom, and many visitors are at
tracted to the place every day TO see the
experiment of growing tobacco under
shade. The tobacco was set close in the
rows, about II inches apart, but very
fair sized leaf has been obtained. rang
ing from 18 to "a inches, which is the
usual size of Sumatra leaf The tobacco
has commenced to ripen and the first
printing, that is the removing of the
lower leaves which first ripen, will COM
mence this week. After willing the
leaves will be strung upon twine and
taken to the curing sheds. The work of
harvesting the shade grown leaf by re-
moving the leaves from the growing
stalk is the most expensive part of this
method of culture. A portion of the crop
will also be topped and cured upon the
stalk in the usual way in order that
test of the different methods may be
given. The result of the shade grown
experiment in this state will be anxious
ly awaited by the growers generally.

NEW YORK, August 13. 1902.

The situation in local leaf circles is
more promising at this writing than il
has been for several months past. A bet
ter feeling became apparent early last
week and has steadily grown more pro-
nounced. 1t begins to look now as
though the customary fall revival would
set in earlier than usual, and that the
market is to be favored with good busi-
ness during the latter portion of the year.
Already out-of flown buyers have begun
to make their appearance in the street,
and large coterie of Western men is ex-
pected next week. By that time big
portion of last years packings will be
ready to show. This week there has been
quite lively interest taken in the mar
ket. Several more fair sized lots of Penn
sylvania Broad leaf of the 1901 crop have
changed hands and there has been con-
siderable inquiry for the new State goods.
Manufacturers are looking largely to On
ondagas and Flats for their binders this
year, and these goods will undoubtedly
meet with ready sale as soon as they

The buying of the new crop, which
was started in the Vernon county dis
trict during the week, is now the talk OF
the local markets. The information that
| reaches us is that few hundred acres
have been contracted for in the fields at
prices ranging from 10 to Il cents. Buy
ers have been riding quite extensively in
that section and while as yet but few are
interested in making deals, many more
are watching future developments and
If the movement should reach much
headway general scramble for the
growing sections might ensue. The
more conservative buyers, however, do
not approve of early buying in the fields.
The growing crop is showing great
improvement, as it reaches development,
as regards size of leaf and that portion
which is yet to be harvested promises to
reach the average of other years. The
heavy work of securing the crop is now
on and growers are working long hours
every day. The absence of much wilt
ing weather may lead to some damage if
the farmers are not careful about crowd
ing while hanging in the sheds. A few
complaints from this source have al
ready reached us. The weather con-
tinues cool and quite favorable for the
harvest, barring this exception.
The market for old leaf is uneventful
and no transactions of any moment have
come to the surface. What trading
that comes to dealers is in small lots to
manufacturers.
The shipments out of storage reach IL
car loads, 590cs, for the week past to all
points from this station. Less than $50
cases of cigar leaf were exported from
New York during the week.
