As Told To

get through and make more trouble

signaling for balls inside and low,
knowing that he was expecting a
curve. You know they say he has a
weakness in hitting curve balls. We
got him on the first ball, and after.
that l decided to cross him and had
the pitcher keep the bah down and In.
He fouled one for the second strike
and another went wide, so calculated
he was expecting curve outside and
planned to repeat the fast low ball.
He outguessed me. or at any rate he
hit the ball like bullet past second
base, little to the first base side, and
It looked as II the ball had gone
through. Delehanty was moving with
the pitch, and when he saw the ball
going through he simply took run

most, as 1t did before. Del hadn't
time to get up, or even to sit up, but
he didn't try. He was still fiat on his
back when he snapped the ball on the
first bound to Bush at second base,
forcing the runner who was coming
down from first by step. That alone
was great play, but the moment
Bush got the ball he whirled and cut
loose e perfect throw TO the plate. He
threw without stopping or looking.
knowing instinctively that the runner
who was on second when the ball was
hit would try to turn third and score
on the play at second. Bush whirled
and shot SO rapidly that 1 only halt

LAKEWOOD CANNING
FACTORY STARTED
Cooperative Industry in the
New Mexican Town Is
Model Plant :

Lakewood, N. NJ, Aug 1e-Lake-
woods canning factory, the only active
one in the Pecos valley, has COM
menced operations and Is canning the
peach crop. 1t Is expected that the 40
employees will be increased to rs before
the season closes.
The factory is substantial building
80 by so feet. The walls are made of
reinforced concrete and the floor is of
cement The roof is of corrugated iron
The whole structure Is fireproof. The
machinery was secured at total cost
of $4,000. of which $500 was paid for
a sanitary capper. This machine puts
the tops on the cans after the fruit is
placed therein and clamps on the top
without the use of solder or acid.
1t is a great Improvement, since 1t
also permits the canning of large sized
fruit without cutting it into bits in
order to get it into the can. The top
it puts on is the size of the can. The

weeks.
Prof. Hiram Hadley, the first presi-

has gained control of the Hatton res
licences on College Row and is making
extensive repairs on them, and in the
grounds around them.
The registrars office, in Hadley hall,

New YORK. Sept. 9, 1911

NEW YORK, Sept. y, 1911.
A temporary lull has set in in our
leaf market after the departure of the
Western buyers, who though they did
not load themselves up to their full
capacity made activity in the market
as long as they remained. Another stir
is not likely to occur till at least
the new filler crops are sampled, the
sampling of which, particularly of the
1910 Pennsylvania, has just been start
ed. The latter crop, so far as sampled,
shows one of the soundest and best in
many a year, and expectations run
high not only as to. its quick disposal
but also as to a gradual advance in
price which may reach the boom figure
of 1906. Inquiries for Sumatra remain
steady, and importers are preparing or
have started already for their atten-
dance at the Fall inscriptions, the first
of which is scheduled for the 22nd inst.
Of other wrapper leaf the Porto Rican
seems to be in strongest demand, but
its limited supply has driven its price
up to an unprecedented figure. Busi-
ness in Havana leaf seems to be salts
factory all around. There is a steady
demand for both old and new, but of
the latter only limited importations
have come to hand. AS for the price
the trade seems to have settled down
to the conviction that all types of to
bacco are up for a higher figure. =

VIROQUA, Wis. Sept. 7, 1911.

There is practically nothing now to
report in tobacco matters except that
last week was a solid period of cutting
and housing, and every available man
and boy could find work at a good wage.
A good percent of wives and daughters
have been assisting in the harvest, so
pressed for hel was the average grow
er. Many have finished shedding, while
others delayed harvest till the present
week. The growth is SO heavy and
large that perfect maturity seems nee
essary to warrant right shed curing.
Because of this four plants to the lath
is considered all it will stand for good
curing. Two weeks will be required to
complete the harvest. Buyers are still
active although not as numerous as in
the past weeks.
During a high wind and rain last Fri
day night hail fell on narrow strip of
country lying between Westby and
Newry. A number of tobacco crops
were injured and one or two so much
damaged that the tangled stuff was
plnwed under Some of the injured
weed will sell for five or six cents for
filters. 1t is fortunate that no greater
scope of territory was covered.
Hillsboro paper reports a light frost
in the valleys of eastern Vernon, but
no damage to standing crop. Censor.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.

EDGERToN, Wis, Sept. Is, 1911.
While there is still some riding being
done in the growing districts the vol
ume of transactions has fallen off ma
terially from the past few weeks as
the contracting of the new crop pro-
ceeds more moderately. For the bet
ter selections something like former
prices are still being paid, shading
down as crops show more or less in
jury from grasshoppers or hail. A few
sales will show the range.

Rains have interfered somewhat with
the harvest during the week and an
other full week Unnecessary to see the
entire crop safely shielded. A short
season of weather conditions likely to
produce shed damage was also present
but probably little injury has resulted.
The early shielded leaf is showing up
we'll.
A terrific hail storm visited the west
ern portion of the state Monday, cover
ing tobacco sections of the Trempeleau
valley and Vernon county, doing much
damage, but as fully three-quarters or
more of the tobacco was already har-
vested that much at least is safe.
The market for old leaf has developed
no news of Importance but trading of
small calibre continues.
The shipments out of storage reach
500 cases from this market to all points
since last report.

ORFORDvILLE, Wis, Sept. Z, 1911.

Local tobacco buyers have about
cleaned up the. buying situation in this
immediate locality. But few crops re-
main uncontracted for, and buyers are
after these. Nearly every acre has
gone into the hands of the American
Cigar and Tobacco companies. Man
ager Shaw, of the Brodhead branch of
the American Cigar Co., is in the field
again this week selecting the best left
unsold for handling in the Brodhead
warehouse. The local firm of Campbell
& Peterson have bought up pack
slightly in excess of a hundred acres
for handling in their local warehouse.
The prices for undamaged crops range
from ten to thirteen cents.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

Why the New York trade papers
should designate the buying movement
in Wisconsin at the going prices "a cal
amity'' may appear somewhat singular
to our farmer readers who are expect
ing to reap the benefit of the top fig
ures paid and they are possibly at a
loss to know on what theory the state
ment is based. If an explanation was
to be made by them it would probably
be this: Anything that effects the gen.
eral prosperity of the manufacturing
trade must eventually react upon the
growers. These papers agree that the
great handicap to the expansion of the
cigar trade today is the high price of
domestic leaf and it's scarcity as well.
The paying of outside figures for green
leaf in the fields doesn't promise any
relief in the near future. Here you
have it in nutshell. There is no es-
Gaping the fact that the high prices of
the 1906 crop cost Wisconsin lot Of
prestige as a binder growing state.
Hundreds of the smaller cigar factories
which had consumed Wisconsin leaf
literally previous to that time have
been driven to other binder leaf never
to return, as the dealers we'll know.
We have lost market for our tobacco
of good many thousand cases in con-
sequence Of that unfortunate incident,
besides a cool million Of dollars which
the packers paid as penalty in reck-
less speculation. The question to be
considered thoughtfully is whether a
permanent market at fair margin is
not to be preferred to these erratic turns
