NEW YORK, April 13. 1904.

The only real activity in the local leaf
market during the last few days has
been created directly or indirectly
through the manufacturers anxiety to
examine the Sumatra situation in con-
junction with depleted condition of old
domestic stocks.
The 1902 Pennsylvania is fetching fair
prices and meets with demand Wis
consin, 1902, has been selling literally,
at least 500 to 800 cases having changed

ent activity in Wisconsin may possibly
be caused by the known Indifferent quail
ity of the new crop.
Sumatra.-The manufacturer is natur-
ally conservative at this stage, and while
purchases are many they are mostly
small on account of the general desire to
hold back orders until samples are on
view here from more than two or three
inscriptions, after which they can form
more comprehensive view.
Havana.-The market is in a more or
less dormant condition. as Sumatra is
holding almost monopolistic attention of
the manufacturers. Sales are small in
size, but are quite many in the aggre-

Report of Bureau of Soils.

The Department of Agriculture has
just published as Circular No. 13 of the
Bureau of Soils pamphlet entitled
"The Work of the Bureau of Soils"
which was prepared by Prot Milton
Whitney, the present chief OF the bu-
reau. The pamphlet, which makes a
document of thirteen printed pages, con-
tains condensed account of the work
of the Bureau from it's creation in 1894
up to the present time. According to
this report there are at present in the
employ of the Bureau twelve tobacco ex-
perts.
The pamphlet closes with the follow
ing treatise on the bulk" method of fer
mentation, by which tobacco 30 ferment-
ed is seldom damaged by the ravages of
the "black rot'':
Another important line of tobacco in
vestigation in which the Bureau is en-
gagged is that of curing and fermenting.
UP to few years ago all the tobacco
grown IN the northern and western
states was case fermented The whole
process of fermentation by this method
was largely one of chance. Under the
case method of fermentation much of
the tobacco was lost by the ravages of
a fungus called the black rot The
bulk method of fermentation prevents
the growth of this fungus and tobacco
SO fermented is seldom damaged Dur
ing the year 1901 there was fermented in
Pennsylvania, under the supervision of
the Bureaus. experts, over five million
pounds of tobacco, of which thirty five
pounds was damaged by black rot It is
estimated that S500,000 annually has
been saved to the Pennsylvania packers
alone as a result of the Bureaus work
During the year 1902 100000 pounds of
tobacco was fermented In Ohio under
the direction of the Bureau, with no loss
from black rot"

LANCASTER NEW ERA, April II, 1904.
There has been some Improvement in
the local market in cased goods, but it
has shown itself only in spots and has
not become general. The sales are
principally 1901 goods, which is finding
buyers in the West, and Ohio and Con-
necticut seed, with now and then a case
of 1902 Pennsylvania seedleaf, which is
found sticking away in some corner. We
cah hardly look for a lively market until
the 1908 crop has gone through its sweat
and shows it's qualities. If it turns out
all right, it is likely to come into imme-
diate demand; if not, it will keep COM
pany with the 1901 crop. The sales that
have BEEN brought to our notice are as
follows: B. F. Good & Co. sold 100cs of
1901 goods to western firm; l. II. Wea-
YER sold 189cs OF Ohio and 100cs of Penn
sylvania, and Meiskey & Heiland bought
SECS and sold 156; in all, 627cs. For the
corresponding week of last year the sales
were 607cs.
The buying of the 1903 crop is still
actively going on. The deliveries in this
city, by wagon and rail, continue very
heavy, but not nearly so much of the
crop has been sold as has been reported
bv local journals and sent away by cor
respondents to metropolitan journals,
There is plenty of it still for sale, and
will be for months to come, not to say
FOR. fifteen days, as some have reported.
While nearly all of our packers have
been buying the crop, the heavy buyers
have been few, and it takes good many
crops to make $4,000 cases. ..-

some Seedleaf as low as and &c, and
other as high as &c through. Only
portion of the packers are operating,
however, and the deliveries are more
like intermittent spurts when compared
to the old time continuous streams of
wagons that almost blocked the streets.
The reason given by some packers for
not operating now, and by some farmers
who refuse to sell at present, is because
the packer and the farmer also imagines
that he may do better later on.
Many farmers have sown tobacco seed
for the crop of 1904 and many more are
preparing to sow soaked seed as soon as
more settled weather prevails. s.-News.

Some old leaf is being bought from

Freezing nights have held back the
making of seed beds so there is but little
sowing to this date for another crop and

Judge Parker as a Leader

If Judge Parker takes the stump as
the National Democratic Committee
desire, it will be interesting to follow
his discussion of the issue of the cam
paign. The Democratic Convention at
st. Louis avoided the financial issue
because the delegates could not agree
on financial plank. but that convention
did take positive position on the tariff,
Philippines, the trusts and other ques-
tons. This was more than Judge
Parker did in his speech of accept
ance. In that dignifed utterance
Judge Parker was uncertain and al
times apologize regarding the issues
Of the campaign. On the tariff he
said: Il am for tariff revision but
there need be no fear because nv
party cannot do anything to revise the
tariff because Of u Republican Senate :"
What further contribution on the tariff
can Judge Parker make if he goes on
the.lstump? Will he stand with his
party and denounce Republican pro-
lection as robbery, as one of the great
est evils of the age and still admit
that he and his party can and will do
nothing to change this, if he should
be electedP
On the trust question Judge Parker
was still more equivocal and uncertain,
almost justifying the decoration of Bry-
an that his nomination nullifed the
trust planks in the St. Louis platform.
Judge Parker in his speech of accept
ance justified the complaint of trusts
and said the common law was enough
to deal with them the courts could
apply the common law, nothing more
in law was needed, but if he was mis-
taken ia this view, he was willing to
be convinced Of tn at mistake and act
