NEW YORK, Oct. 10, 1914.
The leaf market seems to have been
struck by what looks like whirlwind
of business in Wisconsin leaf and Su-
matra. The number of cases of Wis
consin sold runs far into five figures
and the prices at which they were sold
are simply unprecedented. The aver
age price of lots is reported to have
been 25 cents downward, price that
used to be reached by only the compar-
atively small quantity of Connecticut
seconds. When Wisconsin was had only
a few years ago at Is cents, manufac-
turers thought they had reached the
packers claim that even at Is cents
their profits are smaller than when the
Wisconsin sold at Is cents, claim
which seems to be justified by the facts
that the Wisconsin tobacco grower re-
ceives now for his crop from IL to Is
cents, while formerly he was satisfied
with from cents to 8 cents and that
there is always SO much damage IN 1T
that the cleaning of it adds to the
enormous increase of the expense. And
manufacturers have become accustom-
ed now to pay rather a higher price for
clean goods than to buy the uncleaned
stuff at lower figure. AS predicted
in this column month ago, at the rate
the Wisconsin is going now it is likely
to be out Of first hands at the close of
the year. The whirlwind of Wisconsin
buying has also reached the Sumatra
camp. Old light goods are being
thoroughly cleaned out. And the de-
mand for the better grades of the new
importations are ever-increasing. This,
too, was predicted in this column with
the outbreak of the European war,
which it is being realized now, is not
likely to stop for many more months.
And if so, the inscriptions are likely to
be off next year or at least to be de-
layed so long as to surely cause scar
city of Sumatra stock in our market.
Manufacturers who hive made their
success in Sumatraw wrapped cigars and
do not wish to be caught short are
therefore taking no chances of being
left without a proper supply of it

New YORK, Oct. z, 1914.

Within the past few days some not
able transactions have taken place in
Wisconsin binders. A large Western
house has bought several thousand
cases from the local Wisconsin packers,
and one large New York leaf concern
has disposed of about 5000 cases of
1913 Wisconsin since October /. Man
ufacturers are showing great interest
in this type of tobacco because of the
reported condition of the new crop now
in the sheds The situation with re-
spect to the 1914 Wisconsin is in mark
ed contrast to that which prevailed at
this time last year. A year ago there
was hot competition between the pack
ers and manufacturers for the absorp-
tion Of the 1913, and it had almost en-
tirely gone into second hands. 1t is
generally admitted that the new crop
is not leafy one, and that much of it
will have to be considered from B
standpoint. The 1914 Connecticut crop
is large and leafy, and the binder sup
ply will be augmented also from the
Pennsylvania heads. The new Penn
sylvania is reported to be very leafy.
The present financial situation contains
one point of encouragement in the
pause it will give to the buying opera
tions. It is expected that money rates
will be high for the next few years,
and the buying of tobacco for specula-
tive purposes will have to be done in a
more conservative manner than has
been the case in the past few years.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN. WIS, Oct. Is, 1914.

EDGERTON, WIS, Oct. Is, 1914
Copious rains have fallen during the
week which have brought the hanging
tobacco into case and permitted quite
an extensive examination of the cured
leaf. But aside from a few crops pur-
chased by GAINESVILLE dealers at from 10
to II cents we learn of no new con-
tracts being placed. The larger oper-
ators have so far shown no disposition
to push the movement and in the ab-
sence of orders from headquarters are
not likely to do so. If we can believe
the reports of the eastern trade jour
nails, large blocks of Wisconsin have
lately been sold at very satisfactory
figures. Local packers only hope that
such reports are based on facts rather
than disposition to boom the market,
for sales thus far made here do not
reach the prices named.
Growers admit that it is yet too early
to talk of stripping even where the to-
bacco is thoroughly cured out, and it is
better to have some reasonably cold
weather before this work is started.
The shipments out of storage do not
exceed 200 cases from this market to
all points since last report.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES


This is the time to plan for the har-
vest of big crop of highly marketable
tobacco during the fall of 1915. The
field should be selected this fall. If to-
bacco was grown on it this year it
sho uld be plowed or disced now to con-
serve the moisture and fertility for
next year. If your next seasons to-
bacco field is now sod, care should be
taken not to plow it too deep. This, IN
substance, is the appeal which James
Johnson, specialist in tobacco growing,
University of Wisconsin Experiment
Station, is making to tobacco growers
Of the state He reports that many of
the states best tobacco men are now
making plans and arrangements for
next years crop. Some have already
arranged to cover their field during the
winter with growths of rye or hairy
vetch. Mr.. Johnson is urging growers
who have had trouble with the root rot
disease to set their old fields, even
though the most fertile, to some other
crop. Wet weather shortly after set
ting is practically certain to start the
root rot again on deceased soils. Dur
ing the winter arrangements should be
made for steaming the tobacco beds the
coming spring. This method was tried
with very satisfactory results last sea-
son by more than 100 Wisconsin tobac-
co growers Mr.. Johnson urges every
Wisconsin tobacco grower who has had
difficulty in growing plants to give
steaming fair trial Further partic-
ulars regarding this method of killing
disease germs and weed seeds in seed
beds may be obtained by writing for

consin Agricultural Station, Madison.

LANCASTER, PA, Oct. Z, 1914

The growers of Lancaster county can
count themselves very fortunate indeed
in having got their crop harvested when
they did, for heavy frost came last
week. The crop was practically under
cover, few belated fields being found
here and there, and what the frost did
to them is only what would have hap
pened to the rest of the tobacco had it
not been safe under cover If it had
not been that the frost was a month
late, there would have been mighty
poor crop instead Of fairly good one
In spite of the very dry weather the
tobacco that is being properly cared
for is curing nicely. And the process
simple keeping the sheds closed dur
ing the day, and opening them up at

THE SlLO A NECESSITY.
Experience Of a Home Man Given to
Show Its Practical Utility.

In recent article the writer urged
the farmers Of the county to plant
more feed producing crops on their
farms, calling especial attention to The
wonderful possibilities of Soudan
grass as a hay producer He will now
call the farmers attention to little
silo history that has recently been
made right here in our midst.
Mr.. j. C. Kernole, living on his dairy
farm two miles east of town, erected
a fifty-ton silo last July and filed il
with corn silage. On July 10 he began
feeding twelve head of milk cows on
this ensilage, and on September l he
added twenty head of dry cattle
which made thirty-two head that he
kept constantly on this feed until
January Is, when his supply of ensi.
lage gave out Mr.. Kernole says that
with the exception of a small amount

cattle had to eat from September ] to
January 10. OF course, they had the
range of an exhausted pasture. Mr.
Kernole estimates that this ensilage
cost him about $3.50 per ton, which
estimate we think is entirely too low,
for we feel sure that Mr.. Kernole fail.
ed to include every item of expense
But suppose we say this feed cost S.
per ton, he still fed his cattle at 81
per cent less cost than he could have
done had he depended on meal and
hulls or any other feed at present
prices Now what one man can dc
on poor upland with silo, other men
can do, and with a little experience
and with a system of better farming
they will be able to produce this silage
feed at a much less cost. The time
will come in Brazos County when Z
farmer will not think of trying to keel
a herd of cattle without the aid Of Q
small silo, and why the farmers are
not more ready to take hold of the

THE RESERVE BANK.

Let us take the Federal reserve
bank that will be located at New Or
leans as a starting point This bank
must have acapital of at least $4,000
900. 1t will have duties to perform
for the region assigned to it, which
will doubtless comprise the State OF
Louisiana and several adjacent States
in whole or in part. All of the Ma
tional banks in this district must be-
come members of the system, and
must subscribe in proportion to their
capital to the stock of what will be
called THE Federal Reserve Bank of
New Orleans" State banks may also
join the system upon their own appli-
cation. This bank at New Orleans
will be managed by board of nine
directors, three of whom will be
named by the central board at Wash
ington. Three of the other six will be
bankers chosen by the membership
DdUhS OF IUb ulSlIlCl. Inc OlHeT three
will be citizens of repute who are not
bankers, but who will also be chosen
by the membership banks. This bank
at New Orleans will hold part of the
reserves of the membership banks
and will do a general banking business
upon its own capital.
Let us suppose that in the time OF
the moving of the cotton crop a great
deal of money is needed temporarily
in the New Orleans district. This can
be supplied in several ways. The
Secretary of the Treasury, acting with
the Central Reserve Board at Wash
ington, may transfer additional de
posts from unused money in the treas
ury. The Federal Reserve Board may
make temporary transfer to New Or
leans of surplus reserve funds in the
Federal reserve bank at Chicago, OF
the one at New York. But the thins

CHANGED HIS MIND
VIII Submit His Candidacy for Gov
ernor to the Fort Worth
Eliminating Convention.

Austin, Tex, Feb. 4.-Comptroller
w. P Lane yesterday issued the fol-
lowing:
To the Democrats in Texas Who Be
lieve in Prohibition;
In the platform of principles upon
which have predicated my campaign
for Governor of Texas, published in
the press throughout the State on
December IS, 1913, used the follow
ing language: There is not man
living today who knows personally
and intimately and my lifelong inter.
est in and unfaltering devotion to the
cause of prohibition who will not
testify to my sincerity when | declare
that ! would willingly and cheerfully
lay aside for all time to come any
| ambition that ever entertained to
hold any office within the gift of the
people II by doing so 1t would be the
means of driving the liquor traffic
out of Texas"
have not believed up to this time
that a condition existed in which my
| candidacy for Governor jeopardizes
the cause of prohibition and have re-
specially declined to submit TO or be
governed in any manner by the result
of any proposed elimination conven-
ton. did not believe at the time
that the movement was either wise
or timely, and being initiated by men,
most of whom were opposed to my
candidacy, declined to participate
in any OF the proceedings up to the
time of the Fort Worth convention.
Recent developments have con-
WINGED me that the people at large
are taking hold Of this movement with
patriotic intentions, and that the next
convention to be held in Fort Worth
on February q will be largely repre-
sentative of the desire of the unselfish
masses. This being true, the time
has come for me TO make good the
declaration contained In my platform
above quoted will not interpose
my personal ambition to be Governor
of Texas between the success of the
prohibition cause and the election Of
Governor Of this State, whose pri-
vate and public life has proven him
to be a loyal and dependable friend
to the cause of prohibition, and the
fact that have been unjustly charged
with doing so grieved me beyond ex'
preston. Notwithstanding these un'
kind accusations, ! find some conso'
lation in the fact that these charges
are made by men who do not know
me personally, and the sacrifice
would make If necessary to drive the
legalized liquor traffic out of the State.

traffic out OF Texas than to be Gov

Washington, Feb. 4.-lnquiries as
to whether the withdrawal Of Charge
d'Affaires O'Shaughnessy or any
change in the border patrol was IN

ton by high officials of the admins
tration that no further steps other
than the lifting of the arms embargo
were contemplated now.
The capital buzzed with gossip as
to the probable effect in Mexico of the
lifting of the embargo Many officials
conversant with Mexican affairs did
not believe any immediate change in
the situation would result. In the

In a recent report Of the superin'

school at the beginning of this school
year and entered the ninth grade OF
the Bryan High School. These pupils
made a general average OF 80 and SO,
respectively, on an examination COW

should be matter of pride and salts
faction to the trustees and principal
of the Harris school to see their M
