The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1906-11-30
Lancaster.

LANCASTER, Pa, Nov. 20, 1906.
But for operations in Connecticut and
Ohio leaf tobacco, last week, the local
tobacco market would have been dead,
and even with those goods it was fiat
enough. The packers are unable to get
the inquirers after the 1905 goods to
make any raise whatever on their offers,
and the prices remain as low as they
were month ago, those packers getting
20 cents a pound being fortunate, in
deed. Few of the intending buyers are
willing to give above 1917 cents. In con-
sequence very little 1905 goods were sold,
and most of it went to small manufac-
turers. About the largest transaction
reported was sale of 150 cases of Con
nacticut tobacco by l. FL. Weaver
just as little was doing last week in
the new crop as in the 1905. The grow
ers still demand stiff prices for their
holdings, an average of Is cents through,
and the packers hold back from paying
it, declaring it is more than they can af-
ford to pay. 1t is doubtful whether
much more of the crop will be sold until
after it is stripped.
