Funny enough in the Sunday supple
ments, Happy Hooligan" beats his
creator, f. Opper, when he gets on
the stage OF course, there Is no plot
whatever to the play. which appeared
for the first time at the Bijou last
night. but that is no reason why you
should not laugh yourself almost to
death, which you viii do If you see the
play.
There are others besides Happy" to
keep up the scream. Harry Ward,
playing the part of Peter Guggen-
heimer, is one of the best comedians
that has been seen in Richmond for
many a day He is also there with
the Dutch and a clog dancing stunt
that ought to keep local amateurs
practicing for while.
Marie Elmer, as the Widow Jones, is
by far the cleverest female member
Of the cast, She can sing some, and
is also very good to look upon.
In their line, THE Musical Marines"
are better than the usual run. They
can make music on anything from a
tin whistle to a silver string
The chorus was rood, despite the
fact that some OF the members have
evidently seen better days. The young
sters were pretty enough to make Up
for the rest, who might have been
just as good or better in days gone by.
Everything considered, any one who
would kick on the show Is certainly
a horn sport.

NEW L OASIA, wv. Act AOAO'
The two holidays this week naturally
handicapped the flow of activity which
has set in most satisfactorily in the
market. In spite of the demagogic at
tempts of the press in the service of
Plutocracy to create business disturb
ance by the crooked cry Of: "Stop the
business disturber,' the tobacco trade
and cigar industry are in the healthiest
and most progressive state. The United
States Tobacco Journal wishes, there
fore, to warn its readers and the trade
at large not to permit themselves to
be frightened by this irresponsible and
hypocritical clamor of business disturb
ance which is being mouthed forth for
the sole purpose of not having further
disturbed the unholy alliance of crooked
business with corrupt politics. The leaf
market is in position now and will
remain so for some time, to sell all its
marketable stock at fair return and
advancing price without too much effort.
For our cigar industry was never
buster and its prospects for expansion
never brighter. And as leaf stocks of
any type are not overabundant, the leaf
market cannot fail to be drawn upon
steadily and advantageously for its
stock on hand. For the present, binder
stocks, and particularly Wisconsin, are
in first demand And this demand is
bound to increase to rush when man.
ufacturers will begin to realize that
this years Wisconsin crop is the lowest
in average for many year. In wrap
per leaf the scarcity of available Su-
matra will make itself felt probably
sooner than expected, for the Fall in
scriptions are falling off terribly in the
Weld of desirable leaf for the American
market. And as for Havana, the old
stock seems to be given everywhere the
preference so far.-JOurnal.

have packings in all the domestic leaf
growing sections, who returned to the
city from an inspection of the various
districts, had the following to say to a
representative of the Tobacco Leaf, re-
garding conditions throughout the couna
try:
'1n Ohio there is very large crop
this year in the three varieties, and
there is promise of lot of good filters.
Thus far there has been no buying in
the fields save in the Little Dutch dis
trict. The farmers are holding for ten
cents and over, which does not meet
with the views of the packers.
t'It is safe estimate to say that the
1910 Wisconsin crop will not exceed 70
per cent of the normal crop. Reduced
to figures, this means shortage of
Is, 600, 900 pounds,s normal crop in
Wisconsin being about SO, 600, 600 pounds.
Of this 70 per cent there viii be very
small quantity of serviceable, sound
binders. Certainly not more than 20, 600
cases can be expected. The 1908 and
1909 crops both contained less than a
normal binder supply. The shortage
has occasioned quite an extensive spec
ulative buying and most of the local
Wisconsin packers have sold cut TO the
large packing houses or rnanufactur-

SToUGHToN, WIS, Oct. IA, 1910.

Tobacco sales are still being made in
the weed sections and Friday Ed Sim
onson secured four crops at a fair fig
ure to the grower. They were like a
good many other crops, damaged goods.
Seven cents pound in the bundle was
the approximate price. Those who con-
tracted him were Owen Stearns, for
merly Ole Anderson, 18 acres; Wilson
Lormer, 10 acres; Harry Ehle, acres;
Theodore Larson, acres. 1t is under
stood that back of all the deals is the
American Tobacco Co., which is about
the only concern that can use cheap
truck 1t has the goods stemmed and
then made into an inferior grade of
smoking tobacco.
The Equity Warehouse association
has disposed of what is practically it's
entire tobacco packing, covering the
past two years, and the management
reports good profit on the deals. To-
bacco had been pledged at these points:
Stoughton, London, Westby, Gays
Mills and Chippewa Falls, and made a
total of nearly 4, 900 cases. There may
be few ODD lots here and there but
the holdings are now quite small. The
weed went to the trade. There was
considerable 1908 not sold in 1909, which
all went with the rest. The members
of the association are greatly pleased
over the transaction. The falling off
in the acreage of 1910 had no doubt
created demand for this, as we'll as
other packings.

AcREAGE OF CIGAR LEAF CROPS.
Tot'ls 11O6 1874 1859 1443 1873 1245 1884


In New England conditions have been
favorable to large growth the past
season and the average yield is 1900
pounds per acre. Returns show yield
of 80, 500 cases, against 80, 800 last year
on practically the same acreage.
AS will be remembered by those who
followed the tobacco crop last spring,
in Wisconsin development was retarded
because of drouth at time of trans
planting. The lack of moisture contin-
ued for many weeks in the summer,
and at one time it looked as if the
whole crop would be ruined. The re
suit is a final Wisconsin acreage of
about 65 per cent as large as last year
ard reduction in yield per acre. Con-
ditions in some portions of the Wiscon-
sin cigar leaf section are very disap-
pointing, in others growers state there
are very fine crops. The season closed
with heavy winds and transforms which
added to the damage in some sections.
About one-third of the crop is injured
by hail and it was necessary to sell this
at a great reduction.
The drouth extended into Ohio, al
though in did less damage than IN Wis
consin. The acreage there, however,
was reduced slightly by the invasion OF
hurley tobacco upon some land which
has formerly been devoted to cigar leaf.
Another cause of reduced acreage was
unfavorable weather at setting time.
The quality of the crop harvested in
New York is estimated fair to good,
with some extra fine crops, mostly
Wilson hybrid A few sales are re-
ported at Z to 10 cents per pound.
Pennsylvania this year made re-
markable showing in production per
acre, and the acreage is about the same
as in 1909. Not few estimates place
the yield in districts as high as 1900 to
1000 pounds per acre. Growers claim
they have..produced the best crop since
1889:

And still no reports are made of sales
of the new crop The fact of the mat
ter is that the packers, as rule, are
not in shape to buy, nor will they buy
until after the new packing gets well
upon the market. Practically none of
the new packing has been sold, though
as a rule the sales of a new packing
begin in September. The market, in
the opinion of some, will be late open
ing this year, because the 1909 goods
have not yet gone through the sweat.
1t is believed that when the new pack
ing begins going prices will run from
Is to II cents pound. Everybody is
up in the air as to the prices of the new
crop The buyers insist that they viii
not pay over 10 or II cents, because
they could not afford to pay more, while
the growers just as confidently declare
that they must have from 13 to Is cents
before they will sell The tobacco
seems to be curing very satisfactorily,
and nothing is heard about pole-burn,
which, the packers predicted would
damage great amount of tobacco, be-
cause of the spell of murky weather we
had Just after the crop was hung up.
As matter of fact, it is not only
great crop as to size, but it is going to
be splendid tobacco for marketing.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

There seems to be desire on the
| part of some dealers to put sample lots
of the new crop over the sorting tables
and determine what percentage of
available binder leaf it will yield before
increasing their holdings. They believe
they would be able to buy more intelli-
gently if they only knew how much
worm and grasshopper eaten leaf must
be thrown out in warehouse handling
to bring the grades up to standard.
Forearmed with this information, they
could then be able to better tell what
they could afford to pay for the running
lots as it hangs upon the poles or in
bundle.
The holding off of killing frosts until
into the third week of October, has
given growers ample opportunity to
harvest the very latest Of their tobacco
fields this season, which is such rare
occurrence as to deserve mention.
Ordinarily the goth of September is as
late date in this state whea C0bacco
can be safely left standing in the fields.
Such splendid casing weather of late
too gives hope that even the late cut
ting may have chance to cure down
and escape the danger from the first
hard freeze that enters the sheds.
**
The internal revenue receipts for the
last fiscal year show a satisfactory in
crease in all manufactured tobacco
products and once again trade condi-
tions seem to be on the upward grade.
The increased taxes paid on cigars
alone reach nearly million dollars over
the last previous year, while the total
increase on all manufactured tobaccos
are advanced more than six millions
over 1909. With business returning
to it's old channels as we'll as a CORE
spending enlargement of trade, the
market for raw leaf ought to respond
to the improved conditions.
**
After careful inquiry in all of the
cigar leaf producing sections in the
United States, which compose portions
Of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Wis
consin and New England, and a small
acreage in Texas and Florida, the New
England Homestead finds the 1910 crop
now curing in the sheds approximately
372, 300 cases, or about 81, 900 cases less
than last year.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.

EDGERToN, WIS.,, Oct. 81, 1910.
The buying movement in the new
crop bears evidence of tagging some
what. There is some riding in the
growing districts and contracts closed
for both the better crops and for low
grapes around prices before quoted FOR
these goods, but no great activity is
developing.
There is more life however in the
search of old leaf remaining in grow
ers' hands, which in the aggregate is
moving quite large quantities. B. Hard

ment among packers again. A lot of

The weather up to the present writ
ing has been decidedly favorable to the

VIRooUA. WIS. Oct. IL. 1910

Notwithstanding the lateness of the
season few tobacco growers have but
recently completed their harvest and
placing of the tag ends of their crops
on the poles, in nearly every instance
escaping the light frosts that have Wis
tied this section. And it is the belief
that late harvested crops have taken
on sufficient maturity to go well through
the curing and sweating processes. 1t
appears to be understood that good
per cent of the acreage has already
been contracted for and at remunera-
tive prices. Censor.
