the 1901s opportunity had come. The
sales that have come to our attention are
l65cs sold by Meiskey & Heiland, 1901
and 1902 goods, and 12lcs, OF various
years, by John d. Skiles: in all, 2S6cs.
For the corresponding week of last year
the sales were 3l3cs.
There has been no increased activity
in the sales of last years crop. A few
buyers are still at work in a quiet kind
of a way, but they are making selections
rather than buying promiscuously, as is
generally the rule. Perhaps with the
opening year new buyers will enter the
field and the situation become more
active.
Last week was notable for the sale on
Tuesday afternoon of 202Scs of tobacco
belonging to Sutter Bros, and sold by
Walter Genett, agent of the American
Exchange Bank, of New York, who had
advanced money on the same. Tobacco
men from dozen cities were at the sale
to the number of several hundred. The
tobacco was divided into twenty four
lots 1t was of the 1901 and 1902 crops.
Among the buyers were Elias Bach &
Son. New York; Rothchild, Sons & Co.,
and j. Friedman & Co., of Chicago, and
some other houses of the local market as
we'll as outside.
The goods sold at from to 131a cents.
Some damaged filters sold at IL cents.
The sale realized about $60000 The re-
ceivers of Sutter Bros. were present, but
offered no objection to the sale.

The first week of the new year is gen.
orally not particularly auspicious one
in our market. Factories are too busy
with clearing up odds and ends and with
starting their salesmen on the road to
apply themselves to the needs of their
raw leaf stock and the market itself is
as rule taken up at this time with ship
ping orders received or taken in the wan
ing weeks before the new year. Never
theless, some new business was trans
acted, partly for replenishing the stock
of some burned out factories and partly
for some jobbing houses that did not
amply supply themselves during the
rush of the fall season. journal.

EDGERToN, WIs.. Jan: Is, 1904.
Word comes to us that buying of the
new crop is again being revived in many
of the growing sections of the state.
This statement has some significance
when it is known that the American Ci-
gar Co. have sent out their buyers who
have been riding this week in the north
ern Dane county and Rio sections, in
Vernon county and in the town of Cen
ter. Other buyers representing local
firms are also riding and while the par
ticulars of the sales have not reached us,
we learn that contracts have been quite
freely entered into at figures ranging
from Z to cents for the wrapper and
binder grades. The tobacco is still hang
ing powder dry in the sheds so it cannoS
be claimed that buyers are given a
chance to examine into the quality of
the goods that they are trading in, but
possibly are willing to assume the risk at
the prices named. 1t is quite probable,
however, that large share of the crop
could be moved at the figures quoted, as
growers are unable to see, now that win
ter is going fast, how they will be in
shape to sort their tobacco, even if cas-
ing weather should come soon. A Janu-
cry thaw would certainly liven up mat
all along the line.
A quiet market for old stock continues.
Geo. Rumrill reports the sale of 145cs of
'O2 goods for the week while other trans
actions are confined to small lots.
The shipments out of storage reach n
car loads, 1300cs, from this market to all
points for the week past.

VIRooUA, WIS.,, Jan. 5, 1904.

Vernon county, and every other to-
bacco growing section in the state, is
seriously hampered by failure of sufi-
cient damp weather to permit removal of
tobacco from poles to the shed. Farm
ers, warehouse workers and buyers are
waiting patiently for a change to mild
and damp weather. Last year all to-
bacco had been removed from the poles
and put in bundles, and much deliver
ing done before this date. Financially,
it is great drawback, and it is causing
hard times to be felt more keenly than
for some years. The old fashioned Jan
uary thaw is longingly looked forward
to.-Censor.
