New YORK, Aug. 26, 1916.
The leaf markets aspirations and
actsvities are for the present centered
in the new crops, most of which are
still standing in the fields. Whether
the value of these crops will come up
intrlnslcally to the estimate placed on
them by prospective buyers and actual
investors could hardly be competently
judged now. Nevertheless, the specu-
lative buying that is going on here and
there and in some sections to quite an
extent might not be hastily adiudged
as such venturesome gamble as it
would appear on the surface and as it
has proven to be in former years and
in many cases with disastrous results.
For the present outlook is one of al
most assured increase in the consump-
tion of all types Of our cigar leaf. And
this increase will come on top of a COM
plete dearth almost of old stock. But
another factor has sprung up which is
likely to still more accelerate early
buying. This factor is the passing by
Congress of the Rural Credit Bank
Act. This new piece of congressional
legislation will make the tobacco farm
er independent of accepting such offers
from buyers as will not appeal TO him,
not only as an actual value Of his pro-
duct, but in many cases also of imag-
NATIVE value. With the exchequer of
Uncle Sam that is with the mandatory
command now constitutionally enacted
to the Federal Reserve Banks to cash
the warehouse receipt of farmers to-
bacco crop, the farmer has become re-
leased from being dependent on getting
cash quick from any buyer who seeks
to allure him with tentative offer for
his product and this release is likely to
sway his ponderous mind into calculat-
ing for much larger advance as long
as Uncle Sam stands ready to help him
out of his temporary shortage in cash.

As detailed in last weeks issue of
the Tobacco Leaf, there has been a
general buying movement in Wiscon-
sin, in which the prices paid for the
1906 crop have been surpassed. A num-
Der of manufacturers and big leaf firms
took part in the movement The crop
has three to six weeks of growing yet
to do before the purchasers will he able
to form an idea whether they have
leafy, bindery tobacco, or something
else that they do not want In the
facts above outlined Wisconsin was
merely following the lead Of Connecti-
cut. In Ohio, while there has been a
considerable amount Of buying, no such
large amount of tobacco has been con-
tracted for, as the farmers refused to
sell. Much the same thing has been
going on in Pennsylvania, where the
record price of Is cents has been Of
fered. with the farmers holding back,
and the dealers and manufacturers
begging them to sell.

Increase in weight IN suckerlng will
more than pay labor cost OF suckerlng
and harvesting combined and produce
better tobacco besides.
1t will be observed that suckerlng
twice costs less each time over the
field than when done once. II such re-
suits can be obtained with tobacco sell
ing at 8 and 3cents per pound, how
much greater will be the proflts Wnen
the crop is sold at higher prices!

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS, Sept. /, 1916.

~~-~.~
The lid has been lifted again in the
movement of the new crop this week
and the country districts are alive with
buyers ready to close contracts for
everything that looks like it might
reach the sheds and at almost any old
price demanded. Probably the most
furious race has been to control the
late ends destined to grade stemming
propositions, for which unheard of fig
ures have been paid. Contracts writ
ten at 10, IL and even II cents straight
for tail enders, buyers taking all the
chances of hail, frost or storm damage,
looks like "going some' to growers
who heretofore seldom received more
than half such prices. The campaign
has been carried forward so rapidly too
that estimates are freely made that
the end of the week will see 90 per cent
OF the crop under contract. Former
high prices also prevail for the choicer
crops that remain unsold, so the crop
is fast going into the hands of the
large operators beyond the reach of the
local packers generally, who are left to
watch the procession go by. A few
recent sales are:

Atwood Bros, la at 15a&5c.
Neil Mason, Ga at 12c st.
The harvest is we'll started in all sec
toms, the most of the topping is done,
but the drouth is still with us and the
later fields are not making the expected
showing. A light rain on Saturday af-
forded only temporary relief and even
the ripened tobacco has been pinched
and thickened by the long season of hot
weather. What will eventually come
of some of the late fields is J. ct a prob
lem. From this on the harvest will be
pushed with all vigor for the growers
are determined to save as much of
money making crop as possible.
The shipments out of storage reach
about 500 cases from this market to all
points since last report.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

A peculiar situation has arisen in the
buying movement that is causing more
than usual comment of late. The rush
has been turned toward securing the
tail ends of the crop which have gener-
ally been left for the final picking, and
at prices too never before heard of for
stemming propositions. The late poor
ends have been freely contracted for at
from 10 to II cents straight, buyers
taking all chances of hail, frost or
other injury until the tobacco reaches
the shed. Such figures are relatively
higher. considering what they are get
ting, than the top prices paid for the
forward with a satisfactory explana-
tion of the situation. Possibly the low
grade operators fear famine of leaf
suitable for stemming, or maybe the
small, dry weather crops are expected
to yield fair percentage of B stock, or
export demand might take the burden
OIL CilClI udiillo dC pIOIlC. w llO hIlOWo.
One thing is certain growers are get
ting an unexpected benefit this year
for they are securing double the price
ever before paid for this class of to-
bacco. So, even if the dry weather
has shortened much of the crop, the
money returns for the 1916 crop are
bound to be unprecedented and Wiscon-
sin growers ought to be in happy
frame of mind.
-
The grasshoppers are Matching out,
as they usually do in dry season, and
the tobacco fields make rich, juicy food
for the pests. Their work on many
fields is becoming quite prominent.
Growers occasionally find plants in their
fields with leaves on one side shredded
and torn which is a certain sign that
skunks abound and in their search for
tobacco worms, which to them are a
delicate bit of food, scratch and tear
the leaves. Otherwise the crop is one
of the soundest ever produced in the
state.
