Newtown, Friday, February ii, 1908,

The weather conditions of the last week have at last produced the neees- sary thickness of ice and the crop is being rushed in as fast as circum- stances will allow. The end of this week will probably see all the ice housed.
 At last tobacco buyers are out for business. After throwing cold water on the crop for two or three months they are now anxious to buy it but at low figures, offering 5c or Sc or less, occasionally more. They say the crop is not as bad as was expected, yet it has a bad reputation and must be sold accordingly. If sold on it's actual mer- its the better crops would bring from 1Oc to l2c. It is believed the larger part of the crop is sold. Only six buy CTS were along in two days, last week, with a good number out this week.
 James Lee has finished filling all his ice houses in this vicinity and starts on Tuesday for Bethlehem, where he has rented creamery for the year.
