LANCASTER, Pa, Jan. 4, 1910.
The local tobacco packers, many Of
them at least, refused to believe that
as much as IA and cents per pound
was being paid for the new tobacco,
but the list Of sales published last week
in these columns convinced them. The
farmers have said all along that they
would get as much for this years goods
as for the 1908 tobacco, and it looks as
though they were not going to be dis
appointed. The packers criticise them
for demanding such prices, but forget
that they get all they can for their
goods. A good deal of tobacco has al
ready been stripped, and it is now dis
covered by the packers that there is a
deal of good tobacco even if the leaves
are shorter than in former years. 1t is
true that the trade wants long Lancas-
ter county tobacco, but when Dame
Nature doesn't choose to make the
leaves long the trade is quite likely to
be willing to put up with shorter leaves.
If the packers did not think they were
getting the worth of their money when
they paid IL cents and more, why they
wouldn't buy, that's flat. The new to-
bacco, very much of it, is heavy bodied,
and not fiimsy, and it may be of excel
lent quality This fact cannot be de-
termined, of course, until the crop has
been packed and sweated. New Era.

Although the weather has been un-

of 1909, which have brought quite salts

Tobacco movements have been great

has made travelling in the country al
most impossible, while railway traffic is

is destined to create further blockade

The market for cured leaf has devel-
oped no new features since last report.
Packers are still waiting the promised
revival of business after the new year
and transactions are invariably of small
lots on manufacturers orders. ]. E.
Brictson of Stoughton has disposed of
130cs lot of '07 to Drotning for the
account of manufacturer.
Despite the bad roads considerable of
the new crop has been delivered to the
warehouses in this market during the
week. However, casing weather must
come soon so that the balance of the
crop can be removed from the sheds
if warehouse handling is to continue
many weeks.
There has been practically no ship
ments out of storage owing to the rail
blockades during the week.

crops, and their yield will be normal
one again. The growth of the crops
was not impeded either by continued
drought or injured by too heavy down
pours. The market will consequently
have plentiful supply of desirable
leaf, which means an active business,
and an active business is equivalent to
vouchsafng prosperity. The leaf mar
ket, therefore, faces one of the most
hopeful years in recent times. Jour

NEW YORK, Jan. s, 1911

NEW 4ORK, Jan. 8, I9lO.
The leaf market this week was still
under the ban of the restive atmos-
phere of the holidays. Manufacturers
are busy taking inventory, and there
fore not in a position to hustle for or
listening to proposals for investment in
supplies. But this lethargic condition
is bound to pass away iu week or so,
and the prospects for the leaf trade
during the current year promise to be
of the brightest. The country at large
is again with giant strides on the road
to unlimited prosperity. And so is the
cigar industry, which is likely during
the year to reach again the record
breaking figure of it's output of 1906 If
no untoward accidents interviews to ar
rest the general recovery. The leaf
trade will have very faithful field to
work on with not an over abundance of
stock, but with sufficient one to meet
the demands as they arise. And it will
have an available stock of supply to
handle, as nearly all the crops have
turned out in better condition than they
were expected when first set out from
the unfavorable weather influences then
prevailing And with the increasing
demand the tendency will be for an ad-
vance of prices. 1t may be put down
even now as certain fact that at least
all the domestic filler and binder stocks
will appreciate in value in the course
of the year. And it is not unlikely that
by the next fall the top-notch prices of
the boom season of 1906 will prevail
also. Whether there will be a. boom
like that of last year in Connecticut
broadleaf it is impossible to predict
now. But if the same demand should
turn up there will be large efficiency
to meet. For the Florida growers a
more favorable year is in view too, par
ticularly if the arrangements for the
restriction of the output should go into
effect. Sumatra will logically remain
the king of wrapper leaf for the mass
production of cigars, but whether inn
porters will reap large remuneration
from a decidedly larger consumption
will depend on the prices to be paid at
this years inscriptions. The Havana
outlook promises still more favorable
year. From all reports the new crops
are likely to be vast improvement in
quality over many a previous years

VIROQUA, WIS, Jan. 5, 1910.

The Bekkedal warehouse was the
only one in Viroqua to open its doors
to workers in sorting on Monday last.
Because of non-delivery of the weed
other packers have considered it best
to wait for more goods before COM
mencing operations. There is delay in
placing tobacco in bundle, caused by
extreme cold The first delivery of
any considerable amount came last Fri
day when two car loads were received
and shipped to outside packing points

POWERFUL INFLUENCE BACK OF

the Kansas City, Mexico & Orient Rail-

allied interests, could alone make city
of Fort Stockton. But Fort Stockton
has a solid. logical foundation. It's
friends have rallied to its support with

its natural advantages, an impression
that some time these excellent condi
tiOns would be appreciated by capital
and those seeking the ideal town in
which to live and enjoy every day in
the year.
Fort Stockton is Immediately sur
rounded by $4,000 acres of irrigable
land and several hundred thousand
acres of rich valley land subject TO
scientific dry farming methods, already
in successful usage. In the lower PecOs
Valley. according to reports issued by
the emigration commissioners of the
Texas & Pacific railroad. there are over
500, 900 acres of land coming under ir
rigation. This territory is tributary to
Fort stockton. By means of gravity
bitches taken from the Pecos river, by
reservoir systems. pumping plants, ar
tesian wells and natural springs, an
area of land capable of supporting at
least 90, 600 families is being brought
into immediate usage. Fort Stockton
has splendid climate, which fact in
its favor alone would be the means of
producing a great city on the plains
On its merits alone il is bound TO win,
but with great railroad backing it
the fact that Fort Stockton Will soon
have 5000 people is apparent to those
