New England.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, June 22, 1915.
Rain-the element most needed by
the 1915 Connecticut valley tobacco
crop-has fallen abundantly in the past
week. Prolonged showers last Tues
day night were followed by more rain
on Thursday, and heavy showers on
Saturday and Sunday. The net result
is that early set crops have begun to
show size, tobacco which was trans
planted later and was in danger of be-
ing stunted has received fresh start,
and, not least in Importance, the soil is
in ideal condition to receive that part
of the crop which has not yet been set
out in the fields.
Coincident with the much needed rain
higher temperatures have expedited
the growth of plants. Tobacco under
cloth looks especially fine. The rain and
seasonable temperature have wrought
transformation in the general out
look, and at this writing New England
has seldom given promise of better
tobacco crop than present conditions
forecast.

BANKING
and
BUSINESS

Every man can advance
his business interests by
associating himself with a
good, strong bank. The
bank can aid him in ad-
vancing his business. The
methods we employ for the
benefit of our patrons are
such as to make accounts
of business men of the ut
most value in the more i'm
portant matters as we'll as
in the details.

Arrangements are being made at the
Greene warehouse in GAINESVILLE by San
ford Soverhill for operating a stemming
and booking plant, preparing cigar leaf
for the English market. The work will
be done under the direction Of Osmund
Gunderson, who has had several years
experience in preparing leaf for this
trade at Stoughton some years ago.
Tobacco intended for the English mar
ket should be especially prepared and
all the moisture contained in the leaf
eliminated as far as possible without
injury, for an extremely high duty is
levied on imported tobacco. By stem
ming and importing only the booked
leaf no duty has to be paid on the
stems, which is an important saving.
Nearly all tobaccos going to an Eng
lish market comes there stemmed,
either from Holland, where great
deal of this work is done in foreign
leaf, or from the United States. Late
years, however, very little Wisconsin
leaf has been thus prepared for the
English trade.

The figures in the Treasury Depart
ment prove beyond controversy that
for several months there has been a
great depression in the tobacco trade
throughout the country During. the
first nine months of the fiscal year 1914
the tobacco manufacturers paid into
the treasury in the way of taxes for
the support of the country, $24, 7O9,-
9O9.58 and for the same period of the
current fiscal year, $23, ,808, ,257. 96, a
decrease in the nine months of $901,
651. so. This decrease was not occa-
stoned by any reduction in the rate OF
taxation, but by falling Oft In the
business. In the face OF this great
falling off in the business, the govern
ment, as the figures show, proceeded
to add to the burdens already on the
trade by. imposing additional taxes.
Under the operation of what is known
as the emergency tax the tobacco
trade, in the five months ended March
81, has paid the government, as spec
ial tax, the sum Of 81, 75l, ,721.2 In
short, by this special tax, levied on a
decreasing trade, the tobacco people
have been required to not only make
good the deficit of $9O1, ,651. .65 occasion
ed by the falling off of the business,
but to add $3.50, ,068.61. Adding to the
amount collected under the general
revenue law that collected under the
emergency tax, we have total of
e25, $50, 979. 10 as the amount the tobac-
co trade has paid in nine months of a
largely decreased business. When there
is a depression of business true politi-
cal economy leads to reduction in the
burden of taxation, but here We have
an added burden, the trade actually
paying in nine months of depressed
business $3.50, 089.61 more than it was
required to pay in nine months of busi-
ness prosperity. These figures should
cause the trade to think.

United States Consul D. |. Murphy,
in a recent report from Amsterdam,
Holland, gives some interesting data
regarding the tobacco industry of the
Netherlands. Among other things he
calls attention to the fact that the most
important warehousing article of Dutch
commerce is tobacco, Amsterdam being
the worlds principal market for that
staple, the current prices being prom
inent factor in the social economy OF
the Dutch people. The following were
the prices in American currency, per
half kilo Ill pounds), realized at the
Amsterdam TOBACCO sales during 1913
and 1914, respectively: Sumatra, 54.4
and 50.8 cents; Borneo, 30.4 and 26.8
cents; Java, 1917 and 9.5 cents. The
total amount realized from the Suma-
ira sales in 1914 was $19, ,617, 800,
against S23, 919, 900 in 1913 and $25, 024,-
500 in 1872 American buyers bought
but $4,000 bales of the Sumatra article,
whereas they purchased 80, 600 bales in
1913. In the early days of the Euro
pean conflict the tobacco trade, like all
others, was completely stagnated, be-
cause of interrupted traffic and strin-
gency in financial circles. Gradually,
however. an improvement was noted,
financial and commercial conditions be-
gan to adjust themselves, the belliger-
ent countries looking for vast quaint
ties of tobacco for their armies. The
greatly increased volume of business
was also due in measure to the anxi-
ETY. of foreign buyers to lay in stocks
before the possible closing of the ave-
nues of communication.

FACTORY TROUBLE
MAY SOON BE OVER
Steps Taken to Try to End Trouble
and Clear Building for other
PURPOSES

Hamilton Press: SUNNI ns to ap.
pear in court were served on Edgar
Is. Peterson, president Of the shoe
company bearing his name, Wednes-
day. Mr.. Peterson has just finished
making another proposition to the exc
cutfve committee Of the Hamilton
Business club, that they give him clear
title to the building and permit him
to manufacture shoes on small
scale, employing few women and
girls. This the committee declined to
do.
Mr. Peterson. although in a desper-
ate financial condition, has failed to
commit any act that would throw him
into bankruptcy. Yet things are so
tied UP that he cannot move his
goods from the building until he can
satisfactorily arrange things with his
creditors and the Business club. nor
can the building be used by the Bust
ness club until such matters are ar
ranged The matter will come up in
the December term of the county
court. Mr.. Peterson will have 10
either show that he is financially able
to operate the factory or declare bank
ruptcy. Either would be acceptable.
SO long as the factory is occupied, but
the city as whole cannot afford to
have the building idle. After the
affair is settled and should Mr.. Peter
son move out. there will be little
trouble in finding the right occupant.

ONE PEREEcr DAY

ONE PERFECT DAY.
There comes to all one perfect day,
When nature wears rosy hue
And all things old seem strangely new
And touched with golden ray.
1t came to you-a day long past
He told the olden tale anew,
With promise to be real and true
AS long as life should last.
Or was 1t when your baby's eyes
First met your own, and filed your
breast
With deepest Joy and sweet unrest
And thoughts of paradise.
Or. after years Of parting pain
You saw once more your mother S
face;
You felt her tender fond embrace
And seemed a child again.
No perfect day has come to cheer
Your life, you say? If that be true
All. then I almost envy you,
For it Is coming, dear. HfH
