The activity of our leaf market con-
tinues without break and it's spirit is
of the most optimistic hue. There
seems to be nowhere an excess Of avail
able leaf in our marketable crops and
a great deal of last years crops, par
ticularly in the binder line, has already
been contracted for. Even the abund-
ance of the several years Pennsylvania
crop is gradually ebbing out into con-
sumption and as for the wrapper types
they are all in constant demand. Our
domestic shade-grown leaf is being rap
idly absorbed and the Sumatra is like
wise clearing off at a quicker pace than
during the first part of the year. This
continuous activity in the leaf market
would appear to be but reflection of
the resumed expansion of our cigar in
dustry. While the last fiscal year
closed with deficit in it's output, the
first month of the new fiscal year
showed gratifying increase forestall-
ing now, progressive advance towards
former years records. And from now
on the cigar industry is facing it's busi-
est period as it is but three months TO
the holidays for which ample stock will
have to be supplied. SO whatever eff
feet the European situation may have
on other commodities there is nothing
in it to perturb the cigar business reg
ular and progressive course of activ-
ity. And with a predestined advance
of our cigar industry the leaf market
is bound to be kept on the alert, too.-

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN. WIS, Sept. IL, 1914.

LOGEh1ON. WIS, OGpC. IL, 1919.
A much larger acreage of unharvest-
ed tobacco will remain in the fields at
the close of the present week than was
anticipated owing to the cool weather
that has delayed the ripening. Grow
ers however, are pushing along the
harvest as rapidly as conditions and
the help situation will allow. The tenn
perature dropped pretty close to the
frost line several nights this week but
the cold wave has apparently passed
for the present, but we need exemp-
tion from frosts until the Goth to see
the crop all under cover.
Buyers continue to ride about the
growing districts getting line on the
conditions and a few contracts have
been placed, but the movement has
hardly reached a stage where it can be
said that the market for the new crop
has been opened. We learn of no or
ganized effort as yet to purchase any
considerable amount.
Outside of little sampling nothing
has developed in the local markets in
cured leaf.
The shipments out of storage reach
close to 700 cases from this market to
all points since last report.

NEW YORK. Sept. 2. 1914.

The month of August is over, and
most of the Western buyers who
have been in the market, have returned
home. According to all reports the
total of their purchases here and in
Connecticut fall short of those made in
previous years. They came here prin-
cipally to see Connecticut Broadleaf
The actual reason for their not pur-
chasing so heavily as usual is found in
the fact of the smallness of the supply
on hand, and the prices, which proved
a stumbling block to large transactions.
Some may have been unduly pessimis-
tic over the general business conditions
of the country or the conditions precip-
itated by the European war. In the
market it is generally felt that the
temporary check to business activity
occasioned through the war will soon
be over. Consumption is bound to con-
tinue, and stocks in the hands of man
ufacturers and dealers are limited. =

VIRoQUA, WIS, Sept. 8, 1914

This week brings us in the height of
tobacco harvest, while some have fin
ished and others not commenced. This
uneven harvest represents the ragged
condition of the crop with respect to
unevenness of growth. Since late rains
there has been wonderful advancement
in growth of the crop. The average
size and unevenness at that time was
pretty near a guarantee of failure but
for the helpful showers. At best the
crop must be somewhat light and small
in leaf. Cool nights, too, have been
against best effect. If frost holds off
we may look for harvest to continue to
the latter part of September.
Representatives of tobacco handlers
have been riding about the country in
specting crops and getting a line on
crop conditions. So far as learned no
crops have been contracted for and no
offers made to buy. Last year at this
time a good portion Of the desirable
fields were under contract. Censor.

COST OF KILLING A MAN

According to figures compiled by General Percin in La Science ct la
Vie. it costs so much to kill a in war that it hardly seem worth
while.
Poison would be cheaper, if killing were the only object.
The cost of killing a man in W ar is obtained by dividing the total cost
of a va to any of the be1igerents by the number of lei killed on the
other side.
The Franco Prussan war cost France $6O0OOOmO and France killed
1900 Germans. This "a a the rate of $4,000 per man.
The Russo-Turksh war of 1878 cost Turkey 40OOOWO, and Tur-
kew killed 10000 Russians, Or $4,000 per Russian killed.
The Russo-Japanese war of 1905 cost Russia Sl,NOOOUOOOO SO that
il COST Russia 2O.4O0 to kill each OF the $4,000 Japs who we're slain.
The rate varies, obviously, and no fixed rate for killing can be figured.
Resides when the present war is V there will be a entirely e set
of figures.
The only certain deduction that car be made is that the cost is
excessive, and that it would be much more economical to distribute
of typhoid fever, say, and kill your men that way. 1t would Dc
lutte as decent, quite as civilized, as killing them by mea of war.

Jane Adams, Of Hull House fame, in speaking of the European
war says:
1.-THE horrors of Europes wa represents a throwback to an archaic
period-a return to the ancient mode of viewing life. All the social
gains of the past will experience a setback and the cause of the social
worker must 1anguish for years.
"When a million men are suffering, wet and cold and wounded, IN
the trenches, what ART a few children suffering under hard conditions in
factories? What are old age pensions and the problem of infant 10
tally?
at will be years before these things are taken up again. The whole
social fabric is tortured and twisted"

MAKES RULING ON
 SAVINGS BANK DIRECTORS.
Atty. Gen. Light Answers Question
 Submitted to Him.

Bank Commissioner Fred P. Holt of a savings bank.
 Tn his reply the attornsy-general summarizes the question of the com missioner as follows:
 You ask my opinion as to whether under section 344S of the general the flaw because among it's directors, (who number fifteen) there are four directors of one national bank, three directors of another national bank, and four directors of a trust com pany; and you further ask whether the savings bank in question should be required to reduce the number of directors who are also directors in a national bank or trust company, to three in each case.
 Judge Light discusses the statutes that bear on the question and then says:
 These varied provisions permitting savings banks to deposit in other banks and trust companies, and to purchase or loan upon the stock of other banks and trust companies, and to measurably compete with them in making loans, are unauestionably the reasons for the continuance of the provision in regard to limitation upon officers of a savings bank being con- nected with other banks or trust com panies. In view of the history of the act in question, and the evident pur- pose intended to be slibserved there by, it is my opinion that section 9443 of the general statutes, concerning which you ask, uses the word officers as including directors. and that there fore the bank in question should be compelled to change its directors so as to comply with the law.

NORWICH CUSTOM OBSERVED.
Boys Burned Their Barrels on Peiss
 on Thanksgiving Evening.

The skies all over the city were lighted up brightly shortly after dark Thankssiving night by the many har- rel fires held by various gangs of boys who for the past six weeks have faid> ed back yards and sheds wherever they could. carrying off in triumph barrels and boxes of all kinds. Bar rel burning on Thanksgiving is time honored custom in this city and is looked forward to with a good deal of inpatienee on the part Of the small boy.
 At the Falls the boys had three strings erected on what is known as the sandbank on Sherman street. Sev- eral years ago the Falls boys were noted as barrel gatherers and it was no uncommon sight to see from 200 to 300 barrels piled high in the cir ready for. the match. The custom fin that part Of the city is gradually dy- ing out, it appears, as the boys had less than fifty barrels to offer up as a sacrifice this year. The Har1digs had a good sized number of barrels several poles being required to string them on. while the Jail Hills were in the hmelight as there fires were seen from several sections Of the city. There were also several poles erected off Boswell avenue in the vicinity e Oak street and the reflection from nar- rel fires in East Norwich was seen from the Greeneviile side of the river The Broad street gang burned about 60 barrels.
