company years agO on all land sold
under it's land grant.
All people who bought land from
the railway company or who came
to transfer land bought from others
found this reservation for right of
way and it became necessary to get
a quit claim from the railway com.
pany. This necessitated some en-
pense for fee and abstract and often
times a considerable delay. In view
of the fact that a great many resi-
dents of the state were affected, Gov
ernOr Hanna called. the attention of
President Elliott TO the matter and
asked If a general quit claim could
not be filed covering this matter of
right of way reservation, where no
lines had been built. In reply to this
letter, the governor has received a
letter from the eastern land agent
of the Northern Pacific, j. M. Hughes.
stating that an instrument has been
prepared releasing the right of way
reservations, where no lines are at
present constructed, and that this is
being placed OF record in the several
counties of the state east of the Mis-
souri, river. The same steps will be
taken to obtain quit claims affecting
other lands if such a reservation ap.
bears. .z
This will clear up this matter, and
the action Of the governor and the
prompt compliance of the road with
his suggestion will be of benefit TO
every property holder interested in
railroad land where this reservation
was made.

Representatives in congress from to-
bacco growing districts were greatly
surprised to learn that the Agricultural
Department contemplates curtail-
ment of tobacco experiments next year
and has estimated for less money to
carry on the tobacco Investigations than
was appropriated for the present fiscal
year. Fears. are expressed that the
federal government will reduce the
work which it hes been doing for sew
eral years in joint cooperation with
the agricultural authorities of Pennsyl-
vania and other tobacco producing
states. Last year the federal appro-
priation for this work was $31, $50, and
the administration has cut the amount
to $25, Nearly all estimates for
other lines of plant research work have
been increased, and the fact is being
cited as giving color to the charge
made by tobacco growers that there is
bias in some form against the tobacco
people

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.

EDGERToN, Wis, Dec. 10, 1918.
Another week of fine weather has
assisted the tobacco growers in their
work Of stripping and delivering of the
crop and permitted buyers. to resume
riding, for the tobacco most of the
time has remained in good case. Some
purchasing of the cheaper grades is
now going on at around the 10 cent
mark, with an occasional higher price
for the better crops. With fully
Is per cent of the crop yet unsold and
a half or more in the lower growing
sections yet hanging in the sheds, the
movement promises to extend for some
months.
More receiving is being done in De-
cember this year than for some sea-
sons past, and aside from its heavy
yield the most of it is reported to be
in fairly good condition

Don't Worry About the Politicians.

done in Wisconsin get on top under
the swindIing plea of progressiveism
and load the people down with nine
hundred per cent increase in taxation
in twelve years. Don't worry about
the politicians Every move that has
been made under the false cry of prog
ress and away from the political Gus
toms of the farmers of this govern
ment has resulted in an increase in the
expense and decrease in the sum of

LANCASTER, PA, Dec. 8, 1913.
Local packers who buy for the trade,
whose stock is carefully gone over by
intending purchasers, have to exercise
much care in buying. To be taken in
on even few Drops would knock the
bottom out of their profits. The big
concerns, on the contrary, can go into
a likely district, undoubtedly one ''spot=
ted, as soon as the crop is ready to-
cut, and make a clean sweep The
same care is not necessary because the
goods are bought for the buyers fac
tories, and doubtless no goods are let
go to waste. All can be, and are, util-
led Now whether or not the big
concerns want any of Lancaster coun-
tvs 1913 crop is a puzzle, though at the
present time it appears that they do
not. 1t looks just now as though the
United Cigar Manufacturers Co. pre-
ferred buying 1911 and 1912 packings
rather than take up the new crop. In
addition to its own big 1911 packing
and the thousands of cases it bought
some months ago, it is still buying 1911
and of late has bought 1912. What it
paid is not known, but these goods
have been moving lately at prices rang
ing from fourteen to sixteen and half
cents. So far, however, not great
deal has been sold. Some of the pack
ers have found more black rot and
must among their packings than was
conducive to piece of mind, but, taken
as whole, the percentage of these de-
fects is not above the average.
Even some 1909 has been selling late
ly, but in no very considerable quanti-
ties.

Vernon county district that may be Of
interest to our readers He estim ates
that 80 per cent of the crop in that dis
trict has been contracted for, the bal
ance being held at higher figures than
buyers are willing to pay. Owing to
tho enormous amount purchased this
season by the Bekkedal- RosenWald con-
Germ, they found it necessary to begin
packing the first week in December and
are now operating six warehouses with
three more to be added January 1st.
The tobacco so far received is gener-
ally in good condition, the growers
having used good judgment in prepar-
ing it for market. The leaf is thin and
quite leafy, but all northern tobacco
will run 20 per cent more in weight
than for the last three years. The av-
erage of their first 500 acres received
was between 1850 and 400 pounds, in
Guiding filters, and yet in many crops it
takes about so leaves to the pound of
grades. About 80 per cent of the to-
bacco has been taken down and strip
ped and the early crops seem to be IN
the right case. Possibly some of the
later crops removed at the last damp
may run rather high case. Mr. Blur
considers the best OF the 1912 crop the
finest tobacco the state has produced IN
years-the chief fault being that there
is not more of it to supply the present
needs of the market.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

Some one at GAINESVILLE seems deter
mined to give a black eye to the 1913
Wisconsin tobacco crop by telegraph
ing discouraging reports to the daily
press regarding the condition Of the
crop as it reaches market points. What
can be gained by circulating reports
(mostly untrue) that buyers are reject
ing their purchases; that the tobacco
is in bad condition, and there is lean
winter ahead for the tobacco workers,
is hard to conceive. Neither the deal
ers, who are perfectly familiar with the
situation, or the growers even, will
throw fits over such scare reports.
One of our local dealers who has re-
ceived one hundred or more acres of
the new crop in the southern growing
sections, informs US that the tobacco is

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Dec. 8, 1913.
The Connecticut valley warehouse
season is now under full Roadway From
all directions come insistent demands
for early delivery of binder grades of
tobacco Wrappers likewise are being
rushed through the sweat and there is
every indication that stable part or
the 1913 crop will have been consumed
by the smokers before next seasons
seed beds are started.
The great drawback to the 1918 New
England crop next to the fact that
there is not much of it, is the shortage
of the longer sizes. Last fall was ideal
for curing. The colors and texture of
1913 New England tobacco are gener-
ally good and much of the crop is rath-
er better than the 1912 yield. There
are few white veins and scarcely any
polesweat, but throughout the Valley
is heard the same Wail-'Too many
short lengths. Short lengths, how
ever, will not go begging this season,
no matter how desirable longer sizes
may be.
incidentally, the binder shortage has
been the salvation of New England to-
bacco growers this year. If the supply
of binder tobacco had been normal, the
1913 New England crop, in the opinion
of well-informed growers, would have
brought less than the 1907 crop, which
sold at an average price of not more
than ten cents pound. The 1907 crop
was not only larger yield than the
1913 crop, but was of better quality.
Had the New England growers receiv-
ed only 1907 prices for this years crop,
hundreds of them would be on the
verge of bankruptcy instead of disput-
ing one another's opinions concerning
the best make of automobile

shortage in one type the buyer seeks
to make the best from selections of

gradually finding its level in consump-
