NEW YORK, March %, 1912

Grudging seems to be the parting Of
one of the severest winters on record.
Even the nominal advent of spring
turned into reminder of the obstruc-
tive gifts in the trail of impediments of
commerce. No wonder that the leaf
market too is beginning to feel the
stagnation of trade caused by the win
ter's severity in hating means of COM
munication. The cigar industry was
naturally considerable sufferer from
the inclemency of the weather, and it's
sufferings are finally reflected also on
the leaf market. Trade, therefore, has
become slack, confning itself chiefly to
small transactions of immediate needs.
The market, however, concentrated it's
attention this week on the samples of
the new Sumatra crop which made
their first appearance here. Almost
everybody was anxious to take look
at those samples to convince himself
whether the reports of the glowing de-
scription of the exceptional perfection
of the new crop were exaggerated or
not. It might just as we'll be stated
that so far as the first samples prove
the reports were not exaggerated. They
represent one of the most beautiful and
OOullO WI0ppCL CAOPO AHO
leaf is of an evenness, Of light and
glossy color, rarely equalled. The light
ness of the leaf and the perfection of
it's structure promise an extraordinary
yield There doesn't seem to be in it
the slightest flaw It's soundness is
almost marvellous, being free of defects
of breakage and of even the little pin
prick holes that so often disfgure and
mar the soundness of the leaf. The
cigar industry will therefore be able to
rely this year on an unusually service
able Sumatra wrapper crop Another
piece of cheerful news, both for the
leaf trade and the cigar industry, comes
in what appears to be the final estimate
and judgment of the new Havana crops.
In the first place their abundance seems
to be assured and one of the trades
long needed necessities will thus be
provided. An abundant Havana crop
has for years been anXiously looked and
prayed for, and it now seems to have
become realized by yield estimated at
five hundred thousand bales, the larg-
est so far obtained. journal.

NEW YORK. March 20, 1912.

Sales of domestic cigar leaf in the
local market have been comparatively
insignificant in the past week or So.
There has been considerable inquiry for
various types and there is still strong
demand FOR binders of all kinds. The
slump in the purchasing of 1911 Penn
sylvania continues, and it has been ac-
companied by recession from the high
prices that were paid two or three
weeks ago. The price level is about
the same as that at which the buying
began the latter part of December.
There is some doubt in the trade as to
how much of this crop still remains in
the hands or the farmers. The best IN
formation is, however, that not more
than Is per cent remains unsold. This
means, probably, that about 10000
cases are yet to be disposed of. Some
interest is being taken by the pcckers
in the 1911 Ohio tobaccos, and more or
less buying is going on in that state. =

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS.,, March 20, 1912.

EDGERToN, WIS.,, March 20, 1912.
The receiving of the early purchases
has got so far along now that most
dealers are able to see the end of the
work, except that portion which is still
hanging in the sheds. One firm reports
that it has over 200 acres yet in the
sheds awaiting casing weather. From
rs to 85 per cent of the crop already
sold has probably been delivered and
settled for to date. Buying of the re-
naming fraction is proceeding slowly
and prices do not vary much from
those recently quoted. Leslie Viney
sold a 6 acre crop to the Greene To-
bacco Co. at 8&3c. N. Gillian of York,
Pa, has picked up about 300cs of IL
goods, mainly from packers during the
week.
The market for old leaf brings no
new features. The movements are
generally of small nature to meet the
pressing needs of manufacturers.
The indications point to late spring,
as growers so far have not been able
to do anything towards the preparing
of plant beds for another crop.
The shipments out of storage reach
1146 cases and carloads to all points
FOR the week. Since last report 27
carloads have been received for ware
house handling.

STouGHToN, WIS, March 22, 1912.

There is but little tobacco news these
days in the way of sale reports, as the
leaf in growers hands, still unsold, is
very scarce. More tobacco warehouses
are operating in Stoughton than was
the case last year or for some years
previous, which is owing to delay in re-
ceiving the 1911 crop till the last mo-
ment, thereby causing rush of deliv-
cry, beyond the capacity of other COM
munities to care for it. The American
Cigar Co.'s warehouse is closed for
want of leaf bnt will reopen Monday.

LANCASTER, Pa, March 18, 1912.
Lower and still lower has been the
trend of prices of the new crop of Lam
caster county, until now it stands about
where it was when selling first began.
That is, at ten to ten and a half cents.
And the tobacco at these figures is as
good as any sold at higher price. The
slump was caused by the failure of the
large manufacturing concerns that were

expected to take at least 10000 cases,
to buy as extensively as usual
At least a fourth of the crop remains
unsold, and the likelihood is good for
much being still in the growers hands
pretty late in the spring. Earlier in the
season some of the packers who pre-
dicted that before the crop was all sold
lot would go below ten cents were
laughed at, but it begins to look now,
in view of the great quantity still un-
sold, that they may turn out true
prophets.
1t is early to go guessing how the
new crop will turn out after going
through the sweat, but those having TO
do with it would be better pleased If
the leaves were heavier. Pennsylvania

There seems to be growing dlsposl-
ton to market the tobacco crop all over
the country as soon as possible, and
more so this year than in the past.
There is every reason for the tobacco
growers to do so with the 1911 crop, as
the prices are good in all sections and
are yielding the farmers a good profit.
In the Burley sections the prices are
high for anything that has quality and
any color; in the dark tobacco sections
of Kentucky, including the Green River
types, there is active competition and
high prices. II the Bright sections OF
Virginia and North Ce~olina keen COM
petition and high prices rule, some
types for cigarette purpC ses being 5O
per cent higher than yea" ago. The
Virginia darks maintain fiji m position,
nothing being neglected. II the cigar
leaf growing sections the same condl-
tions prevail as to active competition
and remunerative prices to the grow
ers, except in some parts OF ONO,
where cigar leaf has been little low,
but at the present time the competition
is more active and prices are advanc-
ing. The present situation of the to-
bacco trade, in general, is causing prep
arations and considerable talk for
preparing to plant large crop IN all
the tobacco growing states. In some
sections, where the planting has been
limited, there is good deal Of activity
for larger acreage Western Tobac-

Mr.. George 0. Moen, state sales
agent for the Equity Warehouse asso-
citation, was asked whether in his opln-
ion the farmers should handle the weed
through the association, would 1t be
profitable. Mr. Moen, after some pre-
liminaries, explaining the wet condition
of the leaf, said that in his opinion it
would cost % cents pound to sort,
pack and store the tobacco for a year.
This statement applied to remnants now
on hand. This we would have to con-
tend with, and some farmers would
feel themselves entitled to from 10 to
IL cents a pound, which under present
conditions would be impossible for the
1911 crop. Any sound crop is good
after put in cases and will bring salts
factory returns, but the rag end OF the
crop would not fetch more than from 6
to cents pound in the open market.
Some farmers absolutely refuse to sort
and pack and are usually willing to pay
certain sum per pound to relieve
them of a labor that, at this time,
might seriously interfere with spring
work. Mr.. Moen doubts whether it
will be profitable to handle poor stuff
through the Equity, but the grower
must take his chance.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

The selling of the tobacco crop in the
fields was the topic of quite an ex-
tended discussing at the Dane county
Society of Equity meeting at Slough
ton recently. 1t was urged by several
speakers that farmers should stop the
practice of selling options on their crop
and that the agitation should be kept
up until next fall and it was believed in
this matter the farmers would have the
cooperation of most of the dealers.
The dealers themselves condemn the
practice and would much prefer that
growers would wait until they had
something to sell before entering into
a contract that often leads to misunder-
standing and trouble at delivery time.
A town of Burke grower suggested a
form of farmers agreement to hold the
tobacco of next season off the market
until it was bundled. He believed there
were many farmers, not members OF
the society, who would favor such a
movement in the best interests of all
concerned, and committee was ap-
pointed to further agitate the subject
in connection with the Equity manage
ment. The movement is in direct line
with what the writer has been advocat-
ing for years past. The selling of the
tobacco crop in the field is bad busi-
ness proposition from whatever point
of view you may take it. We know OF
few localities where an ironclad
agreement was made among neighbors
in growing section and faithfully OBJ
served the past season. There ought
to be more such.

Judge Bromwell, of the bench of Gin
cinnati, holds that any contract for the
pooling of tobacco is illegal in Ohio,
and further, that the Burley Tobacco
society and it's agents, the Clermont
County Board of Control, are operating
in restraint of trade and in violation
of the Valentine antitrust law, state
statute. Judge Bromwell delivered
this opinion in deciding the case of
Denison VS.. The Burley Tobacco So
ciety. H. w. Denison sued the Burley
Pool Trust for S497, salary and ex-
penses while acting as president of the
Clermont County Board of Control,
formed for the purpose of pooling to-
bacco in the state. The judge held
that the suit was outlawed by the Val
entine act, neither party having any
legal status in an Ohio court. The de
cision, it is expected, will have direct
bearing upon the pool organization re-
