NOTE BOOK SKETCHES


Another season of damp weather dur
ing the week brought the hanging to-
bacco again into case and permitted
growers to take from the curing sheds
the balance of their crops. The tobacco
was in such fine condition that we inn
agine the growers did not neglect the
opportunity to remove and complete the
work of stripping. 1t is generally con-
ceded that farmers were never favored
with more ideal casing conditions than
nave prevailed this season, which will in
sure the delivery of the crop in almost
perfect packing condition. 1t is rare
that casing weather comes just at the
proper time when growers can turn their
attention to the work of stripping and
prepare their crop for market so early in
the season. The weather of late has
been SO mild and pleasant that the to-
bacco has gone into the bundles without
being frozen and delivery has taken
place under the best conditions. Now
that the crop will practically be ready
for delivery before the new year, packers
will find themselves up against the same
perplexity as year ago when every
grower was urging his claims for early
delivery. While packers will be able to
receive their purchases earlier than
usual this year, it is nowise probable
that the tobacco can all be taken in one
week or one month, and farmers must
learn to cultivate patience in this matter.

+ Statistics emanating from the agricul-
tural department showing falling off in
acreage of tobacco since 1899 in the
United States ought not to deceive any
one. The report indicates total acreage
of the country some $4,000 acres short of
seven years ago and yet the cigar leaf
states are producing more tobacco than
they did at that time. The falling off
has occurred in the southern states
where over production and constant low
prices have reduced the acreage. The
same Influences curtailed the cigar leaf
production up to 1905.
***
Some of the evil effects of buying to,
bacco in the fields has begun to develop
in Lancaster county. A correspondent
writing since receiving commenced says:
Last Saturday was receiving day with
some Of our city packers and the results
we're in some degree what was predicted
long ago by some tobacco men. There
were many lots that were mot taken be-
cause mot assorted as the contracts de-
manded. The very thing which the
packers tried to avoid by sending out
the circular spoken of in this correspon-
dence, bas occurred. Many growers have
put up their cases with little regard for
their contracts. All kinds mixed to-
gether without any effort to keep wrap
per and filler grades separate. The re-
suit has been that there we're many re-
jections. One packer told me that a
number of growers tried to sell him their
rejected crops for several cents pound
less than they had contracted them for
early in the season. Unless there shall
be some improvement in this particular,
| apprehend lot of trouble for the care
