The R. C. H. corporation knew the value of advertising and was undueS- tionably willing to pay the paper TOT the advertisement, knowing that the eX- plantation of the error would set mem right with the readers. All publlca- tions have made similar errors. and while such errors are annoying to the advertisers the great majority of them are quick to see that pupllSher feels worse about it than themselves. The Bulletin has made such errors. It made one once in an automobile ad- vertfsement advertising 1t for $5.S5 instead of S5S5.00. The agent had forty inquiries before 10 o'clock in the morning. He claimed 1t was a conspiracy on the part of the Bulletin to help his competitors and apologies and offers of the Bulletin were refused. He even cancelled his contract The advertising expert for the R. c. H. automobile appreciated the publicity the error in price gave the machine and the above notice has been sent to papers all over the country giving the R. c. H. thousands of dollars worth of free advertising.
 The question of carrying to tho highest court in the land the coneti- nationality of the automobile reglstra- ton tax will be considered at the next meeting of the executive board Of the American AutOnOO1le ASSOCihtlOH. While there has been an acquiesence for several years on the part of mo . terists in accepting this tax when the money was employed in highways progress of one kind or another, es- peeialIy in those States where 1t was paid in lieu of a personal property tax, the legislatures of the past winter have shown such a marked inclination to increase fees to an exhorbltahf degree that the A, A, A, officers have taken up the matter with the State divisions of the national body. with the result that President Laurens Enos appointed a special committee to pre- pare and present report at the meet ing to be held in Baltimore.

New YORK, July IL, 1913

Market conditions this week were
rather slack, whether in consequence
of the past weeks vacation days or
from other reasons was not descern-
ible For the cigar industry is keep
ing up a steady activity aud gradually
expanding, although not extremely so.
Yesterday marked the closing of the
last and most important stage of the
Sumatra inscriptions for this season.
But limited quantity was taken again
for the American market, and as point
ed out last week in this place, the
American Sumatra purchases this year
equal SO far almost exactly those of
last year. And it is not expected that
the fall inscriptions will greatly dis
turb this balance. In about two weeks
the first out-of-town buyers are likely
to make their appearance to sample
the New England crops. From then
on the market is expected to move for
ward again journal

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.

EDGERTON, WIS.,, July Is, 1915.
This has been a week of midsummer
storms of unusual severity that have
done considerable damage to growing
crops and the tobacco crop has not es-
capped altogether. The floods have
washed fields and drowned out more OF
less tobacco, while so much wet wealth
er has allowed the weeds to get good
start on many fields which will prove
troublesome hereafter. Other farm
work is so delayed and pressing that
we fear tobacco cultivation will be a
good deal neglected which does not
speak well for the harvest. The crop,
however, is making as rapid growth
as is possible under the circumstances,
but too much moisture is not good for
it and the general outlook might be i'm
proved.
No news of moment has developed in
the market for old leaf and very little
need be expected until the samples of
the IL packings are ready for inspec-
ton. Sampling has been started in a
moderate way, enough to determine
there will be some black rot to contend
with, requiring rehandling.
The shipments out of storage reach
about 300 cases from this market to all
points since last report.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, July s, 1913.
The Connecticut valley tobacco crop
is urgently in need of rain, and unless
the drought is broken in a few days
large areas of promising tobacco will
suffer irreparable damage. Late set
tobacco especially is in imminent dan
ger of being badly stunted, Shaded
tobacco is seemingly in better condi-
ton than crops in the open. A few
growers have irrigation facilities but
the practice is not general. Thousands
of acres of tobacco are so dry that the
top soil is merely a covering of dust
several inches deep. The foregoing is
not calamity wall. The 1913 crop at
this writing is one of rare promise, but
from now on every day which passes
without rain detracts from the possi-
bilities of the crop. For week the
weather bureau has predicted inter
mittently showers or thunder show
ers, but each day is practically cloud
less. Without exaggeration it may be
stated that drenching rain of two or
three days. duration at this juncture
would add million dollars to the 1913
revenue of the New England tobacco
growing interests.

Pennsylvania.

LANCASTER, Pa, July 5, 1913.
Time was when you could make a
Lancaster tobacco packer smile joy
Gus smile by just telling him that the
new crop of Lancaster county was COM
ing along finely. But you can't make
him smile that way this season, be-
cause he don't care continental about
the crop. He doesn't expect to buy
any of it, so it does not concern him.
What he is looking for just now is GUS
toners for the old goods he has on
hand, something like a trifle over
SIS, 900, 900 worth. When one stops to
consider that much of it is borrowed
capital, on which interest is being paid,
it is easy to understand why the pack
ers are so anxious to unload. More in
quiries are being received now than
has been the case for long time, and
some selling in small lots has been
done.
The dealers feel easier than they did
about these goods, because they think
the prejudice against them is being
overcome, the trade coming to the con-
clusion, even if slowly, that because
some of this tobacco is without merit
it is not so of ALL More of the desplsed
1909 tobacco is being worked up into
cigars than the trade at large mag
ines. The manufacturers using this
tobacco have no complaints about the
quality of the cigars. Owners of 1909
declare that this tobacco re-SWeated
makes very desirable filters. But the
1911 packing is not selling any better
than the other goods. The 1909 sells
at from ten to fourteen cents, though
most of If below the latter figure while
the 1911 goods sell at fourteen-and-a-
half cents to sixteen cents, with fifteen
cents as the average.

VIRooUA. WIS.,. July 10. 1918.

Tobacco culture is in about all stages
at present. Many have been hampered
for lack of plants. Some fields show a
growth of leaves large as table sau-
Ger, while others have not yet prepared
their grounds. AS late as July 18th, in
some past years, has produced as good
crops as we have known. Altogether
the outlook is good for a favorable sea-
son of the weed. That acreage will be
somewhat decreased from last year
now seems certain. Censor.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

If field buying should be resumed
again this season, it has been suggest
ed that uniform style of contract be
used by all the firms entering the field.
This idea occurs to the writer to be
vastly to the interest of all concerned.
One Of the most stringent laws, osten-
sibly in the interests of the producers,
has been enacted, making it extremely
difficult to contract under the usual
style of agreements, SO if the dealer
aims to enter the buying field early in
self protection he must use an ironclad
contractsif he keep within the provis-
ions of the Paul law. If the grower
were given to understand that all the
buyers were using practically the same
kind of contract and none of his neigh
bors was securing any mere favorable
terms than himself there would be less
opposition and easier to get move
ment of the crop under way. If the
farmer is to take advantage of the pro-
lection afforded by the Paul law, he
has little cause to complain if the con-
tract offered him is equally stringent
in its terms. The game should be
played fair on both sides.

With the close OF the fiscal year of
the federal government, June Both, the
manufacture of all kinds of tobacco
was the greatest in the history of the
United States. In round figures the
smokers puffed into space 7,707, 900, 600
cigars and 14,012,000,0 900 cigarettes
during the year just closed. This was
217, 600, 900 cigars and 2,79O, 900, 600 CT
garettes more than had ever before
been manufactured in single year.
Patrons of the pipe and chewers of to-
bacco catered to their wants in the con-
sumption Of 4O3, 200, 900 pounds of to-
bacco, or 9, 400, 900 pounds more than
was consumed in 1912. The chewers
and users of snuff show no diminution,
SO, 200, 600 pounds being manufactured
in the fiscal year just closed, an in
crease of more than 100000 pounds
over 1912.

soon be in order again. The object of
the life of any plant is the production
of seed for the perpetuation of the
species. Thus when the tobacco forms
a head and develops, the nourishment
is gradually transferred from the leaves
to the production of seed. Tobacco be-
ing valued for the quality of the leaf,
it is necessary to remove the seed head
as it forms in order that the nutritive
substance may remain in the leaf.
Most growers top their tobacco as soon
as the buds have attained sufficient size
to be seized readily and removed. This
operation requires some skill so as not
to iniure the young top leaves when
pinching out the buds. Topping IS fol-
lowed by suckering. AS. soon, as the
plant has been topped suckers develop,
which spring from the axil OF the leaf.
During warm, moist weather these
suckers develop very rapidly. They
have to be plucked from the plant as
they take just so much plant food and
moisture away from the tobacco. Some
kinds of tobacco are especially produc-
tive of suckers and the fields have to
be gone over every few days during
warm weather. The timing Of the har-
vest is always a matter of much import
and growers declare it is moot ques-
ton, when is the proper time to har-
vest. Whether to leave the crop out
few weeks longer than usual to obtain
a little extra weight or maturity, or
whether to harvest little early and
eliminate the chances Of losing the
crop by frost is always serious prob
lem. The filler tobaccos are harvested
on the stalk when the middle leaves of
the plant have become ripe. Thus
plants set out the middle of June are
generally ready to harvest the last
week of August, although harvest is
often delayed for several weeks past
this time.

On account of the difficulty expert
enced by farmers in securing sodium
arsenite for grassnopper spraying at
various points in the state, Prof. J. G.
Sanders, entomologist of the College
of Agriculture of the University of
Wisconsin, has secured supply of this
chemical which he will furnish at cost

full grasshopper spray is prepared by
idissolving one pound of sodium arsen-
lite in sixty gallons of water and adding
two quarts of cheap molasses. Infest-
ed fields, roadsides or truck crops
should be sprayed before the grass
hoppers become winged. There is no
danger to grazing stock. Some seasons
the grasshopper pest has proven quite
destructive to the tobacco crop, but it
is usually in dry seasons when there is
not much succulent green matter in
the fields for the hoppers to feed upon.
They only feed upon tobacco where
there is nothing else to eat. They gen
orally hatch in the hay fields and after
that crop is gathered and the. pastures
are dried up they swarm to the tobacco
and corn or anything else that is fresh
and green. We have no information
that the pest is likely to be trouble
some this season though it is well
enough to know that a remedy is at
hand If needed
