Financing
the Farmer

The farmers business often
needs a little extra financial back
, ing if it is to grow and prosper.
That is one reason why he
should have strong and willing
bank behind him. 1t is an import
ant function of this bank to give
temporary assistance to farmers
who seek it of us, and who have
demonstrated their ability to re-
pay their obligations.
The best way to establish cred
it here is to carry your account
with us, and we cordially invite
not only the farmer but every one
who wants to gain ground finan-
cially to do so.

NEW Onh, OCPC. ~, 1910.
The volume of trading in the leaf
market this week continued to be fair.
All types and grades of leaf tobacco
seem to be in demand and finding ready
purchasers, while some types have been
or are fast vanishing from the markets
supply stock. From year to year crops
are being more gobbled up now in the
raw state, so that when the market
able season arrives the supply has faded
away already from the packers hands.
Nor are the fall inscriptions, which
started up yesterday, likely to increase
to any perceptible extent the markets
Sumatra supply. From an estimate
made of the new Sumatra crop, which
will be put up for the inscriptions next
year, the yield is reported to be 255, 900
bales or by about 80, 900 bales less than
the quantity inscribed this year.
Bigger forces, better factories and
longer hours, consuming more material,
appear to be the orders of the day with
cigar factories anywhere in the United
States. The industry at large is enjoy
ing a period of unusual exhilaration.
Seed leaf and seed and Havana cigars
are selling at a rate which they have
seldom attained thus early in the au-
tumnal season and much of the stimu-
liant appears to have been contributed
to the clear Havana trade. A sort of
national up-lift campaign, traceable di
rectly to good business, is found among
cigar men. journal.

OaFoRDvILLE, Wis, Sept. 18, 1913.

Practically all of the tobacco in this
district will be shielded by the end of
the present week. Some are cutting
it in spite of the fact that it has not
attained good growth, but the prob
ability of a frost is driving all to get it
under cover. Outside of the hail-cut
pieces, the bulk of the crop is a fairly
good one, though in weight this dis
trict will produce but about three
quarters of normal crop. Some few
pieces, badly hail cut, have not been
cut at all, and few who have usually
raised crops but who were unable to
get an early start, gave up planting
altogether.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, Wis, Sept. 26, 1913.

EDGERToN, Wis, Sept. 26, 1913.
In the face of the Paul law designed
to prevent the early sales of tobacco
the buying movement is gaining some
headway during the week and possibly
a few hundred acres of the new crop
has been contracted for in scattering
sales throughout the growing sections
Of the state. Except in the Vernon
county section none of the larger oper-
ators have as yet been drawn into the
movement, but no one can tell how
soon the country districts will be alive
with buyers.
We append few sample sales show
ing the trend of prices:
Atwood Bros, 18a at 11&4c.
Philip Ullius, 1Oa at 11&4c.
Clarence Bunting, 10a at 11&4c.
Ole Johnson, ga at 11&4c.
Robert Rusch, 5a at 11&4c.
Otto Rucks, ga at 10&4c.
Chris Christianson, 6a at 9&4c.
The first frosts of the season came
on the mornings of the 22nd and 23rd,
and caught fully 10 per cent of the crop
either cut and piled or standing in the
field, but some salvage will be obtained
from this portion of the crop which is
being shielded.
Sampling of last seasons holdings is
proceeding slowly as the work of clean
ing and repacking is Accomplished.
Aside from few small lots totaling
less than 100cs we learn of no sales of
old leaf of Importance.
The shipments out of storage reach
only about 200cs to all points from this
market since last report.

The demand for binders is declared
by experienced leaf merchants to be
more acute than ever before in the
memory of the present generation.
Hope is expressed, however, that next
year the situation will be relieved. If
there is lessening in the quantity of
primed Connecticut Havana Seed the
binder supply will inevitably be increas-
ed, and large Wisconsin crop is being
harvested under satisfactory conditions.

BALDwINsvILLE, N. Y, Sept. 19, 1913.
The climax to a season of adverse
conditions came on Sunday when kill
ing frost swept over central New York,
putting blight to the hopes of farm
ers who expected to realize enough on
late potatoes, tobacco, corn and fruits
to carry along the burden of expense
until another season. The frost killed
every kind of vegetation and the hot
sun which followed closely upon the
blighting cold finished the growing
plants so completely that total loss
faces some crops.
The hard hit crops are tobacco, corn,
late potatoes and fruits and the reason
why the frost was so destructive was
on account of its earliness. This is the
first time in 29 years that SO hard a
frost came so early in the season. The
usual time for frosts of killing power
is the latter part of September or early

STouGHToN. WIS. Sept. %. 1918.

The country about Stoughton was
subjected to heavy frost Monday
night and any tobacco left standing be-
came third grade stuff. Much was in
piles and only the outside leaves ex-
posed were injured. The efforts of
farmers on Sunday and Monday, how
ever, left very little uncut in the fields.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1913-09-26

But for couple of rainy weeks near
the close of the harvest, about all of
the new crop might have been safely
housed previous to the first frost. The
last rainy weather not only delayed the
work of harvesting but also prevented
the ripening in the fields so that from
10 to Is per cent of the crop has been
shielded at much. later date than is
usual in this state. Tobacco housed the
last week in September stands in dan
ger of being caught by the first heavy
freezes unless favored by much warm
weather and late fall. The condition
which growers face this season only
emphasizes the necessity of getting the
crop planted at as early date as is
possible. Much of the early shielded
tobacco is practically cured and beyond
any danger of shed damage or frost,
while that harvested the past week or
ten days has many chances yet to run.
And nobody knows yet what variations
there will be in the price received for
the early and late ends of the crop.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1913-09-26

The first frosts of the season were
visible Monday and Tuesday mornings,
the latter severe enough to mark near
" all vegetation. The frost warning
sent out early Monday threw scare
into the belated tobacco growers and
every available hand was sent into the
field to help secure the balance of the
standing crop, without much regard to
its ripeness or other qualities. Hun
dreds of acres were slashed down and
piled in the fields to be shielded later,
so that probably not over per cent of
the crop remaiued unprotected for the
soaring frost to dumage. AS the
weather was too cold to wilt the to-
bacco as it was slashed down, much
broken and torn leaf resulted om.that
portion of the crop shielded Monday.
Following so closely on the heels of
heavy rain and without being suckered
in many instances, the tobacco was
scarcely fit for the sheds, but the
growers were determined to save what
they could from what on the face it
seemed would be total loss. Just
what the salvage will be remains yet
to be determined.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

Itlooks very much as if the market
conditions would warrant the paying of
very fair prices for the 1913 tobacco
crop, whether the sales are made now
or later. If we view the situation COR
rectly, then there are some very good
reasons why early buying ought not to
be expected. The dealer who expects
to pay strong prices for tobacco GER
tairlly would be justified in waiting un-
til the crop is cured and ready for mar
ket so he could see what he was get
ting for his investment. No one can
blame him for wanting to reduce the
hazard of the speculation to a mini
mum. Many packer has an oppor-
tunity to witness the folly of indis
criminate field buying while sampling
his holdings of 1912 this season where
the results of harvesting green tobacco
are apparent on every hand in the
unusual per cent of damage encoun-
tered. Experience very often is a dear
teacher, and the local packer who risks
his capital in speculation always at
tended with more or less hazard is
quite chary about repeating that of
the past few years in the buying of
immature tobacco in the fields. If for
no other reason there is ample excuse
for letting the present crop alone until
it is in condition for market.
