thing new to give the baby, and it
seems to us sometimes that there's
nothing new under the sun.
Here are a few suggestions. All
these things you can make your

far more pleasing if made by hand
than If bought already made in the

GAINESVILLE, WIS.

Another uneventful week in the to-
bacco district of New England. 1t
seems as though the dealers were afraid
to purchase on account of making a
glut in the market, or that the tobacco
needs to be we'll examined in order for
buyers not to be beaten in trade, for
as sure as can be the balance of the
crop now in the hands of the growers
is being held at too high figure for
the present notions of the dealers. The
price now talked is fully up to the
prices that were received by the first
sellers.
Our correspondents report as follows:
West Simsbury, Ct. "A few more
ssles of tobacco and at better prices
since last writing, around Zoe, and the
growers are waking up. Weather is
dry, and soft rain would bring down
many sheds of tobacco and start buyers
again" West Hatfield, Mass. There
does not seem to be much activity in
the tobacco trade here at present.
There were number of sales early in
the season at prices ranging from 13a
to 18c in the bundle A. L. Strong sold
his crop of 13 acres recently. There
has been but little stripping done as
yet, and the farmers are all waiting
anxiously for damp spell. "-Culti-

WISCONSIN TOBA &c MARKET.
EDGERToN. WIS. Nov. s. 1909.

Since the season Of casing weather
early in the week, buyers have begun
circulating little in the growing dis
tricts again, but as yet we learn of no
organized movement to increase the
holdings of the larger dealers. A few
sales, however, have been made but
they are generally at prices shaded
from those prevailing earlier in the
season. The warm weather needed to
complete the curing of the late har-
vested tobacco has prevailed largely
during the week.
In old leaf the market is gradually
recovering some of its lost prestige.
Exporters have been looking over the
state quite thoroughly of late and TAX
ing what goods meets their needs in
quality and price of any years growth.
A 500 case lot of filters from the
Eisenlohr packing has been disposed of
to an exporter. E. M. Hubbell has
also sold 400 case packing of '08 for
the account of an eastern manufacture
er. A 100 case lot of 'O6 is also re-
ported sold by ? local dealer, which
comprise some of the transactions of
the week. The sale of few lots of old
leaf from first hands has also been
made. John R. Johnson sold 48 cases
each of '07 and '08 tobacco.
Sampling of the 'O8 crop is still go
ing forward with satisfactory results.
The shipments out of storage reach
CTS cases from this market to all points
for the week past.

New YORK. Oct. 27, 1909.

The most interesting development of
the week has been. the raid on Lancas-
ter leaf by Philadelphia and New York
manufacturing concerns. The deals as
put through were of record-break ing
proportions, and their result was to lift
in one week the major portion of the
1908 crop from the market. 1t is sig
nifcant, however, that leaf dealers
of both cities have refrained from pur-
chasing heavily. The nub Of the situa-
ton NAV lie in the explanation that at
the prices at which 1908 Pennsylvania
is being held, it is not suitable for
speculation; and in the ordinary course
Of trading, even, there is little profit
for the dealer. The 1908 Wisconsin is
being sampled, showing, it is said, a
very sound and desirable type of leaf,
the short sizes turning out well, and
making very good BIS. Leaf.

Pennsylvania.


The past week witnessed boom in
the 1908 tobacco, and if the raid on 1t
continues there will soon be not great
deal of it left for the regular trading
with the manufacturers. The prices
ranged from 155 to IL cents pound.
1t is very generally recognized, now,
that there is little tobacco for the man.
ufacturers besides the 1908 goods, as
the 1906 and 1907 tobacco is fast disap-
pearing. The new goods are of the
best, ahead of any tobacco raised for
some years, and, being just what the
trade wants, it is not to be wondered
at that it should prove fast seller.
Local packers predicted that the prices
would 90 up to 20 cents before the new
year opens. and it looks as though this
may be the case, but the original pack
ers will not be the dealers who are get
ting it. They are closing out their
holdings pretty fast, and at the rate
selling has been going on lately they
will soon be cleared out. The heaviest
buvers are Otto Eisenlohr & Bro, the
big Philadelphia and Lancaster manu-
facturers, who are credited with gath
ering in over five thousand cases.
The new crop is reported to be curing
satisfactorily. No sales have as yet
been reported, as the packers and
growers cannot get together on prices.
The latter ask IL and II cents and the
former think the price too high. After
the tobacco is stripped there will be the
usual rush to get it, and in all proba-
bility the growers prices will be paid.

NEW YORK, Oct. 80, 1905

Activity in the leaf market seems to
be quieting down. Some transactions of
considerable size are reported, but they
are rather sporadic, as the general bus
mess is confined chiefly to routine or
ders. This Stacking down is rather too
early to be accounted for by the ap-
proach of the holidays, as these are yet
too far off. Another squirt of activity
bebore the year closes is therefore more
than likely. The scramble for old Penn
sylvania in Lancaster and York coun-
ties is bound to have it's reflection on
our leaf market too. The more so as
prices are beginning to advance by
bounds and leaps. It really looks now
as if 18c would again be the ruling price
for filler stock in the near future, with
a possible rise to the figure which pre-
vailed in 1906. In Sumatra business
continues of steady, even tenor. One
large sale is reported by one house,
while in general the Sumatra business
is just in keeping with hand-to-mouth
demand. The Havana market keeps up
it's activity of the past few weeks. The
heavier demand now on the clear Ha-
vana cigar product is also fostering a
heavier trade in factory Vegas.
The cigar market of late has been
considerably to the advantage of Seed
and Havana lines and factories making
fancy offers in these goods find no di-
minution in the daily budget of orders.
Many of the Clear Havana houses would
not complain if the cessation of rush
orders which featured the first blush of
Fall activity should last for another
week or so. They have enough to do

abreast of the requirements of their
