NEW YORK, June 10, 1908,

The seed leaf market remains rather
sluggish. Pennsylvania Broad leaf, 1900
and 1901, has been moving with some
freedom, and about 500 cases were sold
in various lotsand at ruling prices Small
deals in Wisconsin, Connecticut and
Zimmers have been put through, though
hardly any have have been considered of
sufficient Importance by the sellers to
warrant them in quoting the sales. Out
of town buyers have been scarce this
week.
Sumatra.-The new Sumatra is NOV
ing satisfactorily, and during the past
week this branch Of the leaf industry has
shown more life than any other. Sales
aggregating 800 bales, mostly new goods,
have been put through since our last
issue. The next inscription will be held
in Amsterdam on Friday, and three more
will conclude the spring series-two in
Amsterdam and one in Rotterdam.
Havana.-There is "a little something
doing in Havana leaf, but buying is not
as animated as the outlook would seem
to justify. No parcel of good, service
able tobacco on the market today will
experience any weakening in price this
year. If there are fluctuations the ten
dency will be upward, and manufactur-
ers who are delaying their purchases in
expectation of a slump in prices, will see
the error of that policy before the year
is over.-Leaf.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, Wis, June 19, 1908


The planting of the new crop is now
going forward in all the growing sections
of the state as rapidly as circumstances
will permit. The weather conditions so
far have been rather favorable to trans
planting, being generally cool with fire.
quent light showers, all helping to Sc
cure good stand in the fields. There
is quite likely to be shortage of plants
IN some localities, the rotting of plants
in the beds. the frosts of last week and
the delay of cold weather ali contribut-
ing to this result Just how much the
intended acreage will be curtailed from
this cause cannot yet be foretold. The
depredations of cut worms on many
fields also helps shorten the supply of
available plants. The coming week, un-
der ordinary conditions, ought to see the
bulk of the crop transferred to the fields
The developments in the cured leaf
market are unimportant. Sales from
first hands or from packers are scarce
transactions. A little warehouse work
is yet being done but generally speaking
leaf dealers are enjoying a summer vaca-
ton.
The shipments out Of storage reach
but 400 cases for the week past from this
market to all points.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1903-06-19

Showers continue every day or two, as
reported last week, and farmers are lab
oring under disadvantages. Some re-
ports of plants rotting in the beds are
heard but while the ground may be too
wet for machine planting the old-fash-
ioned method Of transplanting by hand
is being resorted to, which means many
of the overgrown plants may be utilized
In few instances scarcity of plants Isl
reported by farmers, but it is still early
for transplanting and there will be am
pie time as we'll as an abundance of
plants for every farmer to plant as great
an acreage as he may be able to handle
properly. Careless methods Of cultiva~
tion have this season entailed great exs
pense to packers and taught them les
son. The time is at hand for these evils
to be corrected, and il the warning fails
to be needed it will certainly be the
farmers turn to be taught a lesson by
the packer.
Buying in the country still continues
at prices ranging from Sc to &c through
for thinner, sc and &c and Sc toy SC
straight for seed leaf. Deliveries are oCr
casionally in evidence.
Rehandling at the packing houses is
being vigorously prosecuted.

Baldwinsville, n. V

Rathbone, Steuben Co.-The probabil-
tiles are that there will be a slight re-
duction In the tobacco acreage in this
town. About 20 per cent of last year.
tobacco is in growers hands. 1t is be-
ing held for from &c to 10c per 10. Seed
beds are making good progress. Trans
planting commenced in some sections as
eearly as May y.
Chemung, Chemung Co. But little
old tobacco remains in growers hands.
Plant beds which were retarded by the
cold weather are now coming ahead rap
idly. Setting has been in progress for
some time. Little trouble has develop
from the insect pest. There will be a
slight decrease in acreage. Had the dry
weather continued much longer the de-
crease would have been heavy. Tobacco
growers are not showing much interest
in the crop. Gazette.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1903-06-19
EVANSVILLE, WIS, June Is, 1903.

Matters are not looking so promising
for the farmers at present as they did
some few weeks ago and some are feel
ing little gloomy. The weather during
the past two weeks has been so variable
that the plant beds are in bad condi-
tion in some instances. The frost on the
morning of the 18th caused many of the
plants to turn yellow and make little or
no growth. This has caused some farm
ers who thought they had plenty of
plants few weeks ago, to have some
doubts at present as to whether they
will have plants to finish out their trans
planting The more favorable weather
of the past few days has improved the
conditions somewhat and it is hoped
there will be plenty of plants, even
though they be later than desired. Those
who have plenty of plants are going
ahead with the trensplanting. There is
some complaint that the cut worms are
doing damage in some sections.
In old goods there is no change in con-
ditions and the usual business in small
lots has been done.
AS far as can be ascertained the crop
of 1902 is sweating out in good shape
and gives promise of some fine goods.
E. Haskins, who formerly did business
here for j. Marquisee, is visiting here
from Syracuse.
Henry Scott, who has been superin-

New York.
New YORK, June 13, 1908.

Though Water street intersects Wall
street it was and is luckily not infected
by the slump of values that has taken
place in our neighboring stock district.
Some effect, however, of the depression
of stocks in Wall Street seems to be Wis
ible in Water street, inasmuch as it
seems to have toned down the complaint
of the market in regard to the shrinkage
of the value of cigar leaf, for no such
slump in prices can take place in Water
street as it did in Wall Street. If profits
are curtailed and transactions limited in
quantities the business remains anyhow
a safe, healthy and steady one. OF
course at this season no large seed trans
actions are expected. Nevertheless the
stock is dwindling down and the Fall
season will find very little old stock on
hand. The Sumatra market, however,
is quite active as wrappers are in de-
mand, and Sumatra is the only available
leaf to cover all dssnands. Besides it is
reasonable in pffce and an enormous
yielder. Sales for the week about 300
bales The Havana market, too, remains
strong and firm. Though sales in quan-
titles have somewhat abated, there is
not the least sign that holders of old
goods are weakening. Quite the con-
trary. They look with greater conf
dence for rising market than they have
for many year past. Journal.
