New England.

Tobacco growers are perpleXed over
the slump in the market. Great disap-
pointment is felt, because the 1903 crop
was expected to yield handsome profit,
making up, to some extent, for losses
Of recent years. Starting out with
great promise, the crop reached the
stage when it was ready to go into the
barns in such attractive condition that
several purchases were made as high as
20 to 24c per pound. These quotations,
when the generally heavy yield per
acre was taken into consideration,
meant prosperous year for New Eng
land tobacco growers.
Since these early purchases the mar
ket has been ve,,y quiet, and it now de-
velops that buyers and growers are
nearly at deadlock. Buyers are of
fering 1Oa14c per pound, their explain
alton being that the crop is not of the
quality promised early In the season.
They declare that there is TO small a
percentage of light wrappers, end that
the presence Of white veins is more
pronounced than for several years.
The whole truth of these arguments
NAV never be SubStantiated. Some
farmers who are pressed for money, or
who have insufficient confidence IN the
quality of their crop, are selling even
at the low prices offered The major
ity, however, are holding, with the ex-
pectation of getting at least 16c, which
is DC under the level established early
In the season. New England Home

EDGERToN, WIS, Jan. s, 1905

EDGERToN, Wis, Jan. s, 1909
Since the beginning of the new year
more of a disposition to resume the
buying of the new crop has developed.
The American Tobacco Co. started out
force of buyers bidding for all grades
of the crop, for which from to 8 cents
is offered, and are making some sales,
though growers as yet are not very
generally disposed to accept these fig
ures. We learn also that an effort is
being made in some sections to buy the
filler grades out of crops, for which as
high Tas 8 cents is offered. An occa-
sional sale of early crops is being made
but at prices hardly up to the quota
tions that prevailed at the first buying
There is some movement of old leaf
to record, both of standard goods and
of cheaper grades for export orders.
Sanford Soverhill has disposed of 100cs
or such matter and Fl. t. Sweeney of
about 150cs for the week. The largest
recent transaction is doubtless the sale
of all the damaged tobacco held in the
Equity pools in the state, amounting to
several hundred cases.
A few days of casing weather during
the week gave growers another oppor-
tunity to remove their hanging tobacco,
but cold wave following closely after
has interfered with stripping. Deliv-
cries are now being made very plenti-
fully and warehouse handling is in full
swing at the packing points.
The shipments out of storage reach
1906 cases from this market to all
points; IL car loads have been received
for handling here.

A FORECAST.

Gloomy as was last year the outlook
for 1908, SO roseate appear the pros
poets now for 1909 The country at
large has almost fully recovered from
the disastrous effects of the panic of
1907. But the tariff revision being in
the hands of the party of protection
will not involve a violent reaction in
our economic policy. If it turns out to
be an honest and genuine revision to
which the incoming administration is
pledged, it will vouchsafe the principle
of the protective policy though it may
curtaiI and eradicate some of it's glar-
ing abuses. And the elimination of any
abuse helps rather than retards the
general progress and prosperity of
every trade and industry. For the to-
bacco trade the prospects are Of the
brightest Present conditions point to
a very active and profitable year, not,
however, to boom A boom anyhow
is more of bite than blessing. Such
a sad experience ought to serve as a
lesson for at least a generation A
boom, therefore, is not wanted and
should not be expected, but a steady
business can be predicted with grad
ually advancing price of the raw ma
terial. For the cigar industry is on the
road to recovery. 1t is commencing
again to record an increase in its out
put instead of the decrease which has
been the rule for the past year. And
the cigar factories are bare of stock
with an increasing demand for their
product. They will be compelled to
stock up not only but they will be in a
more receptive mood for speculative in
vestment also. Luckily, the trade will
have to offer them not only some of the
most desirable cigar leaf types, but
will be able also to make these offers
attractive by what must be considered
indeed as reasonable prices. The 1908
crops were bought right. The packer
did not throw his money away in fit
of a gambling craze, nor was he disap-
pointed in thes outcome Of the crops.
All the domestic crops with the excep-
ton Of Ohio have turned out of nearly
normal quality and perfection, and
some like Florida far above the aver
age. He had furthermore the advant-
age of buying his filler and binder crops
without the low grades and trash which
had nearly all been disposed of sepa-
rately by the grower or local packer.
Rarely, if ever, had the leaf market to
offer cleaner stock than it will have
of the 1908 domestic crops. And hav-
ing been bought under the shadow of
the depression of the panic, they are
bound to be remuneratiye for their IN
yestors Journal.

AS the packers are now busy closing
up their books for the year, and every
body was busy getting ready for Christ
mas, the past week was dull one in
local leaf tobacco circles. No old goods
of any consequence were sold, and few
purchases of the new tobacco were re-
ported.
The packers say they can get plenty
of the 1908 crop yet if they would pay
the prices demanded, for fully ten per
cent. of the crop remains unsold. Ev-
erybody is hopeful that the new year
will see improved trade conditions,
while having nothing special to base
these hopes upon.
The cigar trade continues dull, and is
not likely to improve until there is i'm
proyement in the country's business

A receiver has been asked for by the
creditors Of the Tobacco Planters Pro
tective Association of Tennessee, Ken
tgcky and Virginia, in a suit filed IN the
circuit court at Paducah, Kentucky, by
number of members on behalf OF
themselves and five thousand other
members Of the association. The suit
contains sensational charges, such as
fraud, negligence and malfeasance on
the part of the managers of the society.
One allegation is that money was bor-
rowed on. the farmers tobacco and
loaned out at eight per cent. interest;
another is incompetent management IN
that the officers failed to sell the 1906
and 1907 crops, and that speculation
was allowed in the sale of the pledged
tobacco. Finally, the charge is made
that $50, 900 has been diverted from the
society to the use. of its officers and
agents on the pretext of going for sal
aries and expenses. The men-planters
who pooled their tobacco two years
ago got no more for it at the end OF
two wears than they were offered on
the day they entered the pool. Inter-
est, insurance, salaries, shrinkage and
warehousing cost them five cents per
pound. And yet we sometimes hear
PENNSYLVANIA growers talk Of doing the
same thing to put up prices. 1t a
farmer does not want to sell his crop at
the price offered he can keep it In his
own possession as safely as an assocla-
ton can, and at far less cost. = Lancas-
ter New Era.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1909-01-08

The Equity News continues to prom
ise great things for the farmers who
patronize the tobacco pools and its last
issue makes this extravagant state
ment; 1.-THE average for the entire
poolings will be better than any of the
recently quoted sales. 1t is entirely
safe to say that the department can
and will obtain from three to six cents.
more than any other man can possibly
sell his crop for, grade and quality con-
sidered." Now if the truth were told
instead no one need be deceived by such
promises, for it is beyond the warrant
of present market conditions that they
are possible. Already this paper has
noted the sale of the tops out of the
pool at IL cent scale and only last week
the sale of 117cs lot from a packer at
z cent scale, when the original price to
the pool was only 81 cents. Why keep
up this deception? If the management
dare, why not publish a statement Of
the sales made, giving the figures that
will show what the pooled tobacco has
netted after all expenses have been de-
Quoted? If the pooling has made money
for the farmers let US know about it
and how much! The proof of your
plan is not in Dragging about it but IN
statement Of cold figures. If pooling
is profitable thing for Wisconsin to-
bacco growers, show it up, but this
keeping facts under cover and promis-
ing returns farmers like to believe,
which in the very nature of things can
not become true, will not long deceive.
These settlements must be made sooner
or later, and when the real facts come
out and the trusting farmers find how
they have been lied to, then look
out for an explosion. The writer has
cautioned the management often enough
about these rash promises and this
paper has been roundly accused OF not
being the friend of the farmer. Time
will tell whether the newspaper that
has tried to keep them out of trouble Is
the best friend of the farmer or not.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

The committee of arbitration to de-
termine the value of several hundred
cases of '06 tobacco destroyed by fire
IN the burning of the Helgerson ware
house at Viroqua, of which mention was
made in last week. paper, agreed upon
a united finding on Thursday evening
last. The award was fixed at 1874 cents
per pound, marked weight, ON all the
tobacco burned, and is generally con-
sidered very fair estimate of the
value Of the tobacco on the day of the
fire, which is all the insurance COM
panies could legally be expected to pay.
1t is Mr.. Helgerson's misfortune that
the market value of his tobacco had de-
clined and did not equal the cost Of the
packing, but the risk which the insur-
ance covered was that of loss from fire
mot the fiuctuation of the market.
The committee was composed entirely
of tobacco men and would like to award
Mr.. Helgerson all the damage he was
legally entitled to. The insurance COM
panies, on the other hand, ought to feel
they have been justly treated and that
there is no disposition among the trade
to take an advantage of them in settle
ments of this character. Fair adjust
ments of losses tend to inspire confi-
.dence in insurance circles and help re-
move the natural prejudice against the
moral hazard of tobacco risks. It
might also be stated in this connection
that the price agreed upon was only
two-fifths of cent greater than the
tender made by the insurance conpan-
les some months ago before the expense
of arbitration was incurred.
