NEW YORK, May 10, 1913.


Market conditions remain about the
same. There is lively demand for the
new Sumatra, and trading in it con-
tinues brisk. But so does trading in
domestic wrapper leaf. The merits of
the Florida-Georgia shade grown leaf
being now generally recognized are in
themselves recommendations for their
use, particularly as the price is within
the reach of everybody. And the upper
grades of the New England shade
grown leaf are also finding ready buy
ers. The scarcity of the binder mar
ket, however, is not yet relieved, and
while inquiries are anxious for sound
dry Zimmers, the Pennsylvania market
is slowly responding to the filler de-
mand. The Havana market is in a
normal state. The reports about the
outcome of the new crop are still most
ly unreliable. While the prospects were
very rosy the curing of the crop, at
least in some sections, does not seem
to come up to the early enthusiastic
predictions. Trading in last years
crop, however, is going on satisfactor-
lily, and if the Clear Havana cigar in
dustry would but confine itself to work
last years leaf exclusively without a
heavy admixture of some previous rank
crop, its advance would be far more
accelerated than reports have it.

LANCASTER, Pa, May 5, 1913.


During the past week the American
Cigar Co. s agents succeeded in buying
up several hundred cases of 1910 goods,
and it is understood it cost them nine
teen cents pound. This is the only
transaction of any moment reported in
the local market the past week. The
trade is still working along on a jobbing
basis. The Lancaster packer who could
unload thousand cases at lick, as
was often done when Pennsylvania
goods had the call on the market, would
certainly have fatal attack of heart
failure. Before the Ohio flood disaster
our packers had Ohio goods to work
with, but now this source of supply for
doing business is entirely cut off. Re-
Gently about as much 1909 as 1911 goods
have been selling, though none of it
has been going very fast. In spite of
stagnated trade the prices of these
goods are still holding, the former
around ten and eleven cents and the
1911 for fourteen to fifteen-and- -a-half
cents.
The reports of the Ninth internal
revenue district for April show that
there has been pretty much the same
amount of money spent for stamps as
during the few preceding months, but
it is an unmistakeable fact that the
business has fallen off some. 1t is
stated by persons in position to know
that some stocking up is now going on,
the manufacturers preferring to do
this rather than disperse their force of
cigarmakers.

New YORK, May Z, 1913.

Business has not been a great deal
better this week than it was last. Such
inquiry as has developed has been
mostly for types that are not in the
market. No large transactions are re-
ported, and the market seems to be in
waiting state. 1t is anticipated that
many of the delegates to the conven-
tion of the National Cigar Leaf Tobac-
co association will stop over in New
York next week on their way home
from Atlantic City, and it is hoped
some business may result from this.
The growers of domestic wrappers are
more optimistic than any other branch
of the leaf trade. Leaf.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, May 6, 1913.

Another week of fine weather has
caused young tobacco plants IN the Con,
necticut valley to make such rapid
obliged to transplant at an earlier date
than they had planned in order to util-
ize the plants. The scorching sun of
the latter part of the week would have
speedily shriveled plants in the seed
beds had not the glass coverings been
removed for the time being. Flowing
is being pushed and the setting out of
plants under cloth will begin next week.
It would not be surprising if few
growers begin setting in the open next
week. The present outlook is that the
1913 sun-grown crop will be from ten
days to two weeks earlier than that Of
last year.

knowledge of adaptedness of soils to
crops does not come alone through suc-
cess in growing given crop on given
soil. says the New York Tribune Farm
er. It may come through failure as
well. 1t is altogether probable that as
much knowledge has been gained
through failure to get good yields of
these crops on other soils. 1t is prob
able, too, that this fact has caused
many farmers to gain the reputation of
being unsuccessful or poor managers,
when a lack of adaptedness of the soils
with which they were working to crops
which they were growing was the real
cause of their failure to produce profit
able crops. The tobacco crop is an ex-
cellent illustration of the exactness
with which certain crops have to be
fitted to soils in order to produce the
best results. Just shade of difference
in the character of the soils modifes
materially the character of the leaf of
the tobacco plant, and, therefore, its
value Heavy soils produce heavy
bodied leaves which are of much less
value than the thin, elastic leaves pro-
duced upon the lighter types of soil. So
the type of soil upon which tobacco is
grown has come to fix very largely the
selling grade of the tobacco leaf. A
section eventually comes to grow the
crops to which its soils are best adapt
ed This is a slow process, and often
times means many and long continued
failures in attempting to grow other
crops. Finally, however, the profits
which can be obtained from certain
crops and which are governed more
largely by the character of the soil
than by any other factor, except, per-
haps, the climate, determine the crops
which are grown in the section. But
the problem of fitting crops to soils is
not sectional only. 1t is problem on
each individual farm, for there are
variations in soils and soil conditions
even in limited area.

According to reports, there will be a
large acreage of Havana Seed grown in
Lancaster county, Pa, this year. From
various sections come reports that
farmers will set out from five to ten
acres, while one grower is making ar
rangements to plant at least sixteen
acres. The soil in some sections, es
pecially that along the Susquehanna
river, is well adapted to the growth of
Havana and if the proper cultivation is
given it the crop can be made most
profitable one. The acreage on the
whole will be somewhat reduced this
year. Many farmers are disheartened
over the difficulties they have had in
selling their crops, while the tremen-
dous losses from hail have had deter
ring effect on the growers who are in
clined to give their attention to crops
that will not be in danger of being
ruined about the time they are ready
to be harvested. Hundreds of acres of
land which last year produced tobacco
will this year grow potatoes, while In
the vicinity of Lititz scores of farmers
have entered into an agreement to
raise cabbages on an extensive scale
for the sauerkraut trade in the large
cities. Ground given to cabbage will
yield from $3.50 to $500 an acre, and the
grower runs no great risk from wealth
er conditions.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

May is bringing so much cool wealth
er that the plant beds are not making
the usual progress and growers are
beginning to fear the planting season
must of necessity be considerably de-
layed. A couple of quite severe freezes
occurred during the week which will
doubtless have some effect upon the
uncovered beds. There is complaint,
too, that the plants are rather thin on
good many beds, resulting from the
drying winds soon after the seed was
soWn. However, under influence of
the right weather conditions the young
tobacco plants come forward surprising
ly, SO it is hard to tell at this stage
just what the coming month may bring
forth, but the prospects at present
must be put down several points below
the normal at this date.
-
The ghost of the night riders is still
stalking in some parts of the Kentucky
tobacco regions. Plant beds have been
scraped and written notices sent to
farmers not to attempt to plant crop
this season. Merchants are sent mail
telling them that unless they sold
planters goods on credit they might
find their stores in ashes some morn
ing. How long would Wisconsin
community stand fe such vandalism?
Of all the provisions in the Wilson
Underwood tariff bill relative to trade
affairs, none has met with stronger
and more persistent opposition than the
one opening the American market to
the absolutely free admission of Philip
pine cigars. Particularly active in this
fight appeared Representative Griest
from the Lancaster district of Pennsyl-
vania But his efforts proved futile,
as did also his personal endeavor to
persuade Chairman Underwood to re-
open the question by giving hearing
on that subject to the tobacco interests
as the tobacco people had no idea that
they were to be exposed to absolute
free trade before the bill was made
public. And the protestants will meet
the same staunch refusal from the
senate. 1t seems therefore absolutely
futile to continue fight against what
has been decreed by the Democratic
administration as absolutely irrevoc-s
able. journal.
