DUCHESS OF ROxBuRGHE TO ENTERTAIN KING

given in their honor by Lord and Lady
Farquhar. the first party of the sort
in the new reign.
The dinner the duchess gave to their
majesties last year was one of the
events of the season. 1t was almost
impromptu. but the duchess, full of re-
sourcefulness and energy, made it the
most brilliant dinner party of the year.
Now she will be hostess to the SOW
ereigns at her dance. Chesterfield
house. one of the finest mansions in
London, offers a fit setting for such a
function. The huge ballroom, which
on state occasions is enlarged by
throwing two large drawing-rooms into
one. contains fortune in fine paint
ings.
The present kings admiration for
the duchess is inherited. She and her
husband entertained King Edward at
Floors castle, the dukes ancestral seat
in the south of Scotland. At that time
100000 was spent, 1t was said, In
Transforming that ancient establish
ment into modern house.

LANCASTER, PA, Nov. "a, 1913.
The leaf business in this district has
been hit hard by the agitation now 60
ing on among the cigarmakers who
have petitioned the manufacturers for
an increase of 81 per thousand cigars,
which the manufacturers say they can
not afford. Where the matter will end
nobody can tell, but as it has put the
manufacturers all at sea, the condi-
lions prevailing have reacted on the
packers.
The growers have been stripping,
some of them, though this is not likely
to become general for at least another
month. Buying this year will begin
unusually late. Because of the uncer-
tainty existing regarding the big man.
ufacturing concerns, the local packers
are rather in the dark as to what is
likely to be done with the new crop.
The growers have said all along that
they do not wish to sell before strip
ping, but past experience shows that
they will sell whenever anybody comes
along with good offer. But as they
have plenty of general farm work to
keep them busy just now, they will not
go out of their way to get their tobac-
co ready for inspection. This being a
short crop it will not take long to buy

Although the holiday was instru-
mental in suspending the activity in the
market to a certain degree, trading
was not altogether left in the lurch,
for the demand continues steady for all
types of leaf. The response is being
met as far as available. Filler types
are moving much faster now and the
result is advancing prices in the local
packing districts. Sumatra is moving
rather plowly for the present, the eX-

dos are selling freely. AS the market
in Cuba is pretty cleaned out, our
domestic markets have to meet the de-
mand even at advancing prices. There
is no prospect for price reduction in

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS.,, Dec. 5, 1913.

A week of almost continuous fog,
rains and soft weather turning the
country roads into sea of mud, has
served to pretty effectually suspend
the buying movement as well as to
cause considerable anxiety upon the
part of the tobacco grower. The warm
unreasonable temperature has caused a
good deal of heating in the bulks of
unstripped tobacco, as well as in the
bundles and even mold has commenced
to show on the soft stems. tits feared
that damage might occur should this
weather continue much longer. A lit
tie of the new crop has been received
during the week, about 100 acres be-
ing taken in at Deerfeld Wednesday
by the P. Lorillard Co. We understand
the tobacco is not coming in in the
best of condition, as there is consider
able high case tobacco and delivering
is likely to be attended with some
trouble. The grower who has not TAX
en- down his tobacco from the curing
sheds appears to be in the best position
so far.
Trading in cured leaf is largely con-
fined to the eastern -centers, where the
samples are now being shown. We
learn G. E. Simonson & Co., Deerfeld
packers, have sold 150cs of IL.
Packing operations have been start
ed in limited way in Vernon county
this week, but not much will be doing
in this market until after the holidays.
The shipments out of storage reach
about 600cs to all points from this mar
ket since last report.

New England.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Nov. Z5, 1913.
Thanksgiving will be day of mixed
emotions in the Connecticut valley to-
bacco belt. The grower who raised a
normal crop and has delivered it has
good cause to give thanks; the farmer
who broke even on the season, under
the circumstances should be thankful
but probably will not be.
Well known packers estimate that 80
per cent of the new crop has been
taken down. After another good
damp" there will be little tobacco
hanging in the barns. This condition
means that the warehouses will have
an uninterrupted season.
The acute binder situation has caused
a steady flow of inquiries to Connecti-
cut valley tobacco packers. The crop
is being handled with expedition and
1913 New England binders will be on
the market by January l.
Prices paid growers remain firm, but
the average grower will not make much
money this year because of the light
yield due to the drouth. 1t is simple
calculation to figure that the grower
who sells crop Of 900 to 1000 pounds
an acre at from sixteen to twenty
cents a pound is no better off than if
he had raised 1900 to 1000 pounds an
acre and had received eight or ten
cents a pound. Growers have always
contended that tobacco could not be
grown for the latter figure. but on the
basis of normal crop the rank and
file of the New England growers have
received in actual cash this season just
about what an average crop would
have yielded them at eight or ten cents
a pound. The foregoing explains why
it is that the valley abounds in tobacco
growers who have sold their crops at
seemingly good prices and still COM
plain that they have nothing to show
for the years work.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES


November has brought such an I'M
usual amount of fine casing weather
that growers have been able to strip
SO large portion of the crop that the
warehouse handling season promises to
open at an early date this season. We
learn that quite portion of the YER
non county crop is ready for delivery
and the warehouses of the Rosenwald
firm will begin to receive their pur-
chases early in December, which may
induce other dealers who have bought
in that section to do likewise. This
will mean that good deal of eastern
money will be released and become
available for the holiday season. Grow
ers will realize that an early delivery
assures the heaviest possible yield to
them, as tobacco never weighs so we'll

is held the less will be the returns. re-

per cent occurs before the same tobac-
co reaches the manufacturer year
hence. Under normal conditions then
the packer pays for that amount of
moisture every season. But in year
like the present one when the tobacco
damp has extended over two or three
weeks the chances are that consider
able leaf has been removed from the
sheds in high case which cannot but
lead to trouble at delivery time. 1t is
only reasonable to think that packers
will shy at paying fancy prices for high
case tobacco that contains excess mois-
ture, which is the most difficult matter
to contend with the warehousemen
have to deal with. The conditions this
season call for warning to growers to
beware of high case.
