LANCASTER, Penn, May 7, 1906.


Nothing doing is still the cry among
our local tobacco packers, though there
have been few sales of small lots, at an
average price of 2l19 cents pound. The
largest sale reported is that of Reuben
p. Swarr of Landisville, 121 cases. The
dealers say that such sales as have been
made have been outright sales, and not
conditional, the buyer taking all risks.
In discussing the situation one we'll
known dealer said the packers would be
better off if they would shut up shop for
a month and take a holiday, when they
would be free from inquiries after goods
and be just as well off in the end. The
tobacco is not ready for gampling yet,
and the buyers will not take much of it
until they have chance of seeing what
they are to get.
Some Of the packers expect the selling
prize to settle down at 25 cents pound,
although some of them are worried now
at finding more black rot than they ex-
pected TO find. Still it is not in such
evidence so far as to cause alarm.
The young plants are seemingly com
ing along nicely, and will be ready for
setting out in snort time.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET,
EDGERToN, Wis, May IS, 1906

If sent to order the weather could not
be more favorable to the growth of
young plants than we have had the past
week. With plenty of moisture in the
ground and the warm sunshine over
head, the plants are making a rapid
growth, and many farmers report bet
ter stand of good healthy shoots than is
usual at this season of the year. Owing
to the increased acreage this is most
gratifying news, and gives promise of a
good start for the new crop.
The hunters after low grades are hav-
ing hard time of it and to pick up a
small load requires drive of many
miles, and yet few operators are still in
the field. The trash that IN other years
was consigned to the fertilizer pile, is
now being disposed of by the growers at
seemingly remunerative prices and the
buyers, who are small operators, will
make good day wages on their transac-
tions.
Shipments out of storage reach about
800 cases from this market to all points
for the week.
