RED CROSS YORK
FOR SOLDIERS
Results Accomplished by the Northeast
ern Division Are Told by
Director Grandin.

A summary of the work accomplished
by the northeastern branch of the REQ
Cross supply service is furnished by
John L. Grandin, director, in the follow.
ing communication to the chapters and
branches in the division:
Last week a conference of all the direc-
tors of the Red Cross supply stations
throughout the United States was held
in Washington.
We are anxious to advise you that we
are all most deeply impressed with the
fact that men and women of the highest
ability are donating their time and best
energy to the organization of Red Cross
activities.
In behalf of the supply service, we
want you to know just what we are
doing in your territory, and just what
is being done with the Red Cross sup
plies which you are so periodically fur
nishing.
1t is a well-known fact that there are
wounds waiting for every surgical dress
ing and that there is great need for hos
pital clothing. We are sure you want
Red Cross supplies hurried to our suf-
fering allies, and for fear that some Of
you may think that too many supplies
are being kept in storage and are not
going to the wounded, we make the fol-
lowing statement.
Thanks to your generosity, we have
shipped to Bush terminal, Brooklyn, n
Y, from June to July 10, 4l9 standard
boxes 8 X 2 2, all most carefully in
spected and packed, containing the fol-
lowing articles. From this point Red
Cross supplies have been steadily sent
abroad They are not piling up in stor
age
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1917-07-28

Remembering the number of men we
have in the field, this reserve amount
should be larger, and thinking of the
suffering of our allies our shipments
should also be larger.
A letter of July is, from Eliot Wads-
worth, chairman of the American Red
Cross, makes an earnest appeal because
of the urgent need in Europe for surgi-
cal dressings that you send at the earli-
est possible moment all your available
stock of surgical dressings to l42 Berke-
ley street, Boston, Mass.
We cannot emphasize too strongly the
fact that it is the opinion of many of
those at the head of the Red Cross that
we must plan for at least a three-year
task, and we must therefore all be will
ing to cooperate to the fullest extent.
Ii at times instructions seem to be at
variance, we must be patient, realizing
that this war is the biggest task any
generation has been called upon to per-
form, and Red Cross has to develop and
change its policies as circumstances
change.
We believe there is only one way to
get the greatest efficiency from the sup
plies you are making, and that is to send
them to the Red Cross Supply, l42
Berkeley street, Boston, Mass, and allow
the Red Cross system to distribute them
locally and abroad. The spasmodic local
giving which appeals to so many, is not
in this crisis the best method, as it only
causes unnecessary duplication.
The people of New England must fully |
realize the need of still greater efforts,
for the world has never been so bleeding |
and tear.stained.
Faithfully yours,
John L. Grandin, Director.

Barre exhibitors, including quarters
and manufacturers, have decided to go to
Philadelphia next month ands exhibit de-
signs and photographs of their product,
according to an announcement to-day.
The exhibition space reserved by local
producers will be used at the annual con-
vention Of the National Association of
Retail Monument Dealers, which is to be
held Aug. l4lS. The announcement
states that the over burdened railroads
will not be asked to transport granite
memorials to Philadelphia, hence the de-
cision to exhibit only designs and pho
tographs. The local exhibitors, there
fore, have not receded from their original
stand, although they will attend the con-
vention in numbers.
The modicum of excitement which
small incident may create was demon
strated this forenoon when a southbound
bumped into the roadster of
DIR. Z. H. Bancroft, which was stationed
near the curb in front of the Cummings
& Lewis pharmacy. The driver of car
No. 1902, registered in the name of w.
E. Hunt of Jacksonville, had stopped his
machine to inquire the way to Williams
town. Apparently he did not notice the
roadster in front of him, for when he
opened the throttle again, the front of
his car sideswiped the doctors machine
It had the effect of bending the mud
guard, but the damage was trivial and
only the absence of anything like excite
ment in the week past could have as
sembled on the scene a crowd of caucus

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, June 18, 1917
More rain and some sunshine have
prevailed in the Connecticut Valley the
past week. The redeeming feature has
been the fair degree of warmth. The
New England tobacco growing industry
faces a critical situation. Less than
half the crop has been transplanted
and the unset area is the largest ever
known at this date. The sole hope of
anything like normal yield this year
rests upon a late fall. If frost comes
early in September thousands Of acres
of the sun-grown crop will be ruined
before the plants have reached their
growth. On the other hand, if New
England is favored with a late fall, it
Will still be possible to produce a fair
crop. Even, in case of late fall it
must be remembered that the shorter
days in September have fewer hours of
sunlight than midsummer days and that
good tobacco cannot be grown without
hot sunshine and plenty of it.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS.,. June 20, 1917.

EDGERTON, Wis.,. June 20, 1917
The tobacco growers of the state are
now busily engaged in the rush work
of getting their 1917 crop transplanted.
But for heavy rains early in the week
the crop might be pretty nearly trans
ferred to the fields by July | and not
much behind the time of completing
this work in other years. The chances
are however, that there will be consid-
cradle July planting this season, though
the bulk of the crop is already out.
The early set fields have had splendid
chance to take root as soon as trans
planted, SO the shock of transferring
the plants from the beds to the fields
is quickly recovered. Help is none too
plentiful but growers are pushing along
their work as rapidly as possible with
such facilities as they can command.
A few warehouses have some work
in sight to complete their 1916 pack
ings and week or so will see the end
of the handling season.
Old leaf is so nearly out of the local
markets that no transactions are re-
ported.
The shipments out of storage reach
200 cases from this market to all points
since last report.

New YORK, June 20, 1917.

NEW IOhh, u une 10, iJii.
The great and novel event which
kept the market this week in feverish
excitement and expectation was yes
terday's first inscription of about 4, 600
bales of Sumatra imported directly into
the country by syndicate of American
importers organized for that purpose.
The inscription was staged in faithful
copy of the famous historic inscriptions
at Amsterdam. Never was there a
larger and more eager buying crowd
present at the Dutch inscriptions than
there was yesterday at the improvised
American Frascati." The Inscribed
parcels went off in clock-time fashion
and prices reached even over the limit
of some of the most famous inscrip-
tions. The tobacco was held to COM
pare most favorably with the best ever
offered, both in texture, color and yield
and was pronounced an exemplary pro-
duct. Consequently, the bidding was
most lively, but the chief buyers were
manufacturers. That in some cases
record prices were paid would prove
the sore need of the manufac turers to
replenish their Sumatra stock. High
though the prices were considered to be
they hardly reached the war price fig
ures of other commodities. In it's re-
suits, therefore, the inscription proved
eminently successful beyond all expec-
tation and foreshadows similar enter
prises for the future. -J Journal.

LANCASTER, IA, June 10, 1911.
There are something like 1900 cigar
factories in the Ninth district, big and
little some employing hundreds of
hands and some only few dozen, and
very many less than half dozen hands.
The big concerns, of course, are in a
position to carry large reserve Of leaf
and many of the smaller can carry a
fairly good sized stock, but the very
small factories have to depend entirely
on supplies from local packers, and
local packers are exceedingly short
nowadays. Nevertheless, it is upon
these same packers that these small
factories depend now for their supplies.
When it is announced that the Lancas-
ter packers are about cleaned out of
their old goods it is well not to take
this too literally. Short they are, but
there are not many who cannot on de-
mand scare up some old goods. And
thev manage to keep something on
hand by searching out very diligently
odds and ends of packings scattered
about the country. So this uncertain
stock is what many of the manufacture
ers depend upon.
AS matter of course, such old goods
as packers have command very hand
some prices. The 1915 has touched so
cents and the 1916 has gone to IS cents.
Possibly a third of Lancaster county's
crop is in the field. That put out early
has had all sorts of unfavorable wealth
er to contend with, though it has also
had some good weather, and among the
drawbacks are cut-Worms. They are
worse this season than for some years,
and the plants in the seed beds are Civ
ing lot Of trouble, great quantities
having rotted.
