LANCASTER, Pa, March A, 1916,


Local tobacco men are becoming very
much interested in the 1909 packing,
due to the fact that quite good deal
is changing hands The writer knows
of one big local packer who offered anI
other holder of several hundred cases
10 cents, at the same time frankly tell
ing him that he expected to make one
or two cents pound on it In short
time The owner of the goods con-
cluded to hold on to his tobacco, be-
lieving that the increased price would
come to him as we'll as to another.
John Wasser has just sold 125 cases of
1909, and other sales are reported the
past week. The holders of these goods
feel very confident that as soon as all
of the old goods about here are gone,
and the small stock cannot last much
longer now, there will be demand for
the 1909 and that eleven and twelve
cents will be the prevailing prices.
If the local packers only had more
goods to work with they could be busy,
or fairly busy, as there is quite brisk
demand for certain kinds of old goods.
Because of their rapidly disappear
ing stocks of old goods our packers are
wondering what kind of tobacco they
will have to handle when their stock is
gone. Many are regretting now that
they did not buy of the 1915 crop, even
though they did think at selling time
that ten and three was too much. With
old tobacco now becoming scarce they
feel that they could have made good
with the new goods.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.

EDGERToN. WIS.,. March II, 1916.
Little need be said except to repeat
what has appeared in this column cea-
corning the movement of the tobacco
crop that is fast drawing to close.
Buyers. however, are still in the field
slowly gathering in the remnants
whenever they can be secured around
previous quotations. A good share of
what remains unsold is in the hands of
growers who have steadily refused
previous offers and therefore rather
hard to lift at low grade figures.
Where such crops contain fair per-
centage of binder leaf growers are be-
ing paid some advance over the aver
age price. But at best only mere
fraction of the crop is unsold.
The condition of the country roads
has interfered somewhat with the de-
liveries of the week. Julius Marquisee
of New York opened a warehouse at
GAINESVILLE Monday for the handling of
his purchases made in the state.
Outside Of small orders, no transac-
tions in old leaf from local packers has
come to the notice of The Reporter.
The embargo on tobacco to eastern
points continues and shipments out of
storage reach but 200cs and cars of
bundles since last report to all points.

The prohibition of further tobacco
imports into England is likely to have
the effect of wiping out England's en-
tire cigar industry Such is the opln-
ion of the English tobacco trade papers.
For, while enormous stocks of pipe and
cigarette tobaccos have been boarded,
the cigar manufacturers live from hand
to mouth in their supply of raw mater
ial. AS the supply of cigar leaf for the
British cigar industry comes mostly
from Holland and South America, con-
seauently from strictly neutral coun-
tries, British cigar manufacturers are
rather puzzled that they should be sin
gled cut as an object of sacrifice to the
necessities of war.-U. S. Tobacco

UNI. OF maine
NJ. G. A. at u. of NJ. Closes Its
First Year with Much
Promise

Orono, Me-, June 7-(SpeciaD.- The
Maine Christian Association has COM
pleted a most successful year. AL
though this has been the first year Of
its existence as an organized body, it
promises to be one Of the most prac-
teal and strongest CARNATIONS in
the history of Maine Y. NJ. c. A
work. A short time ago 40 Of the most
enthusiastic students of the univer-
sity banded together and went over
the work which it is hoped will take
place next year. The purpose of these
men was to organize themselves into
an active body, in order to fern plans
to set the association on It's feet for
the coming year.
The association will have at least
one powerful speaker here each month
next year. 1t intends to help new men
by having men to meet them at the
station to aid them in registering
and helping them in many other ways
The association will have classes as
usual and will also send out Geputa-
ton parties to surrounding towns
within a radius of % miles.
1t is also planned. beginning with
next year. to have the rooms On the
campus. In past years the room in
which all the business meeting took
place was in Hannibal Hamlin hall.
The work of the association will
again be in the hands of Secretary
Cranston, Who has had charge of it
for the past year. Mr. Cranston has
been an able worker, and is very Pop
ular with the student body. During the
past year, however. he has been able
to devote only a part Of his time to
the work Of the association. Beginning
with next year, he will devote his
whole time to the work.
The student body, realizing the i'm
portance Of Y. M. c. A. work, have
raised funds to begin the work of
next year. Over 5000 has been raised
and this, together with what is to be
raised next year. will assure the Maine
Christian Association of a sound A.
nancial standing.

Are You Past 80 Years :?
Take Hot Water and ffAnuric

People are realizing more and more
every day that the kidneys. just as do
the bowels, need to be flushed occa
sionally. The kidneys are an elimina-
tive organ and are constantly working,
separating the poisons from the blood.
Under this continual and perpetual
action they are apt to longest and
then trouble starts. Uric acid backs
up into the system, causing rheuma-
tism, neuralgia, dropsy and many
other serious disturbances. Doctor
Pierce Of Buffalo, New York, advo-
Gates that every one should drink
plenty of pure water between meals.
Every day should exercise in the OUT
door air sufficiently to sweat profusely,
and from time to time stimulate the
kidney action by means of "Anuric."
This preparation has been thoroughly
tried out at his Sanitarium, in the
same way as his "Favorite Prescrip :.

Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair be care
full what you use. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkali, which is very injurious, as it
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cOcoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensiy,
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store
and a few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is
all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather
cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft, fresh looking.
bright, fluffy. wavy and easy to handle.
Besides. it loosens and takes out every
particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.-
