While considerable tobacco in Ian
caster county has been cut, cutting is
by no means general yet, the growers
appearing to have determined to take
the risk of the crop being nipped by
frost in order to give it the very last
chance to develop. The late rain was
undoubtedly beneficial to the tobacco,
and if the frost holds off awhile longer
the Improvement will be marked. Near
ly an inch and half of rain fell last
Tuesday night, and, as the weather has
not been cold since then, everything
was in favor of the crop. AS we stated
last week, there will be good deal of
fine filler tobacco, the leaves, while
small, being heavy. Some reports have
been made of the crop, being less than
half crop, but this is putting the crop
below what it will be. Some experts
believe it will make so per cent crop.
Little old tobacco is selling, because
the stock on hand is small, just about
sufficient to meet the demands of the
local manufacturers.
There is more doing in the new pack
ing, and a good deal is changing hands
at rather stiff prices, with further
upward tendency in prices. Sampling
is in full blow, but will not be finished
before November. New Era.

The Wisconsin frost, together with
the hail storm earlier in the season, re-
moved 1000 acres out of 10000 acres
of tobacco. The damage was heaviest
in the north, but in the. southern part
of the state, where actual frost injury
was not so great, the farmers hastened
to cut the tobacco, and in this way
much unripe leaf is now in the sheds,
which makes the situation more serious
than if they had waited for the good
weather. There has been considerable
movement in 1903 tobacco in Wisconsin

NEW YORK, Sept. 18, 1909.
The market continues to be enlivened
by demands for the New England crops.
Manufacturers, big or small, keep up
the demand, and it is only question OF
very short time when there will not be
a sprig left in the market of last years
crop. Prices naturally remain firm,
though there was not advantage taken
of raising them to the limit. The ex-
traordinary demand for this type of
leaf this year has, however, stimulated
what must be stigmatized as an insane
speculation for the crop just off the
field. Prices are reported to have been
offered for crops of this years growth
at figure for which the crop of last
year cured and packed sold in the mar
ket. And this years growth was handi-
capped by an unfavorable growing sea-
son and it's outcome is yet problem
atical. 1t looks as if the profits made
this year on that type will be lost on
it next year. Another troublesome fac
tor for the market just now is the
binder question There is hardly any
old Wisconsin left, not even of the
abundant 1906 crop, or what there is
left can hardly be ranked as of the ser
viceable class. And with almost one
third of this years crop frost-bitten
last years crop will have to cover the
entire field. The prospects are, there
fore, for very strenuous binder cam
paign. In Sumatra trading fell off
somewhat during the week. But Flor
ida is moving along again at a good
pace A rather low price seems to serve
as an inducement for the manufactur-
ers to turn their attention once more
to this type. In the Havana market
brisk trading took place. The exigen-
cies of the holiday trade for which or
ders are being rapidly placed with our
clear Havana cigar manufacturers de-
mand larger and safe supply of the
raw material, for which the stock on
hand in the market is being literally
drawn upon. And as new crop has
not turned out of a more engaging
quality manufacturers prefer to supply
them with old stock. journal.

Rains have delayed the harvest or
the crop would have been practically
secured by the close of this week. Suit
able curing weather has prevailed and
much of the early cut is out of danger
of shed damage.
Old goods in growers hands continue
to be taken over freely, even at ad-
vanced prices. A. S. Flagg has pur-
chased about 400cs of '08 and A. Jen-
son & Sons about 150cs of '07 and '08

Rapid work has been done among the
tobacco farmers of Vernon county the
past fortnight. Cool weather and frost
retarded action for few days, but the
warm sun-rays of late have materially
added to the size and quality of late to-
bacco. Much energy and all the work
ing help that can be commanded have
been pressed into service. By the close
of the present week good percentage
of the acreage will have been gathered
into the curing sheds. Censor.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

The coming week will see to '09 crop
practically secured in the sheds. Ex-
cept with a few belated growers the
principal concern is now with the cur
ing. Nearly all the late harvested por-
tion has been housed in thoroughly
ripe condition and in conse sequence is
curing very rapidly. The weather con-
ditions of late have been exceedingly
favorable to a satisfactory curing. The
early shielded portion is so nearly cured
down that very fair idea of the quail
ity and character of the leaf may be
obtained. Being quickly grown crop
there is certainty of a remarkably
thin leaf, and the colors, too, promise
unusually light. So much of the crop
being of a large growth, the percent
age of binder grades will run way be-
yond the normal yield of Wisconsin
binders. A thin, large, spready leaf is
what the market most demands of
binder tobacco and it seems almost cer-
tain now that the '09 crop will meet
these requirements more nearly than
any crop the state has produced in some
years past.

The tobacco industry in Canada yields
a little over six and half million dol
lars revenue to the dominion govern
ment. Nearly three and a half million
of this is derived from an import duty
placed on tobacco shipped from the
United States. The tax on manufact-
ured tobacco is lower than the internal
revenue tax in this country. The con-
sumption of tobacco is less in Canada
per capita than here and only small
part Of the leaf manufactured is grown
within the limits Of that government.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1909-09-24

In view OF the anCl-clgareCCe laws IN
force in several states and the constant
warfare against tobacco carried on by
various societies, some statistics about
the weed may be of interest. So far
from decreasing, the increase in per
capita consumption in the United States
since 1870 has been more than 250 per
cent, as compared with Sc per cent in
England and 25 per cent in France. In
the United States more than six pounds
per annum is consumed for every man,
woman and child, or II pounds for ev-
cry male over 16 years of age. Austria
uses 2.9 pounds per capita, Hungary
"a, France %, England exactly 2 and
Italy but IL pounds. While the United
States uses much more tobacco per
capita than any of these other coun-
tries, it derives much less proportionate
revenue from the tobacco business.
The combined internal revenue and GUS
toms taxes average but II cents a
pound. In Hungary the same taxes
total 33 cents pound, in Austria 40
cents, in Great Britain "a cents, in.
France 85 cents and in Italy SO cents
per pound. Our annual revenue from
tobacco is about $87, 900, 900. The Brit
ish rate or taxation would give us
revenue of $3.50, 600, 600 from the same
quantity and the French rate would
mean revenue of $436, 100000.
Estimates of the cigar leaf tobacco
crop in Lancaster county, Pa, place
the yield at Is per cent OF the normal
crop. The leaves will run much small
er than in former years. Production to
the acre is light. In New York state
the situation is more encouraging than
any time during the tobacco growing
season. Just two weeks previous to
harvest there was excellent growing
weather and the plants made rapid
progress. There was very little dam
age from hail and the harvest resulted
in better yield than was anticipated.
Ohio has completed its harvest. Esti-
mates concerning the size OF the crop
vary. There is an increased acreage
and rather satisfactory yield. In New
England, where there is an excellent
crop of wrapper, initial sales were at
25 to 28c per pound in the bundle. One
or two sales were at 35c. This was for
tobacco in the bundle, with broken
leaves and filler culled out.

ceptibly cutting down the filler yield,

MISSING LEGS AND
 SHARP kN|FES PUZZLE

If a Mexican with his right leg missing. who carries left-handed table and chases his countrymen with the improvised dagger. deserves and receives a three months sen tence in the county jail, how much time should a Mexican with his left leg missing, who gets drunk with a right-handed table knife in his pos session, have to serve? is a question propounded and answered by the Globe Silver Belt.
 Dead easy! Fifteen days of course. The solution to this rather tangled problem was reached by Judge Hin. son Thomas.
 Teodoro Oroz was ap before the
 court charged with being drunk. In his possession had been found 8 sharpened table knife. He was minus his left leg.
 | The other case wRs that of Fell ciano Cueyas. who was arrested about | two weeks ago. The knife he car ried was almost a counterpart of that
 carried by Oroz. except that a little
 more time and energy had been ex
 pended in putting an edge on 1t. | If a legless Mexican with two
 knives in. his possession happens tt
 come up in the police court within the next few days, the judge vii probably be in something of a quan
 dary as to what sort of a penalty tt Impose.

 resume his journey to the coast, in
