CONSERVATION
OF FOOD ALLOWS
SHIPMENTS
Surplus Of 1917 Harvest Al
ready Shipped e Euro-
pean Allies. ].

Fargo, N. D., Dec. 8.-Dr. E: F.
Ladd, food administrator for North
Dakota, announced that results al
ready manifested from meatless days
have for the first time created q suf-
ficient visible supply of meat to allow
this country to partially comply with
the quantities requested by the allies
for shipments during the month Of
December according to reports re-
2teived from Federal Food Adminis-
traitor Herbert. Hoover at Washing
tom.
Statements being widely circulated
protesting against wheatless and
meatless days, and declaring they are
unnecessary, are either malicious or
emanate from personal interests OBJ
viously endeavo1ing to raise the price
Of meat, DR.. Ladd said reports to him
showed. al H. 4
AS to wheat, DR.. Ladd said, Mr..
Hoover at Washington had advised
him hat the United States has al
ready exported the whole Of the sur
above the normal demands Of our own
population until the 1913 harvest.
Therefore it is necessary for the
food administration to restrict the
export of wheat so as to retain in the
United States sufficient supplies to
carry our/own people until the next
harvest. All exports Of wheat from
now forward are limited entirely to
volume of saving made by the Ameri-
can people in their consumption OF
wheat and wheat products.
"Mr. Hoover advises me-" Dr.. Ladd
asserted, that wheat shipments for
December, as far as the situation al
lows, are being. continued, but even
with all the conservation made weiare
still unable to load over four hun
dred thousand tons Of foodstufs urg-
emily needed blythe allies, during De-
&, cember alone. Statements made de-
claring wheatless and meatless days
unnecessary are not in accord with
the spirit being shown by millions OF
homes in the United States who are
fading the food administration in its
task Of feeding our soldiers abroad a
we'll as the soldiers Of our allies.
Opposition to the governments con-
servation measures are comparable, to
opposition to the draft, Mr.. Hoover
says. az the failure to save food
means direct and immediate loss OF
life, DIR, Ladd asserts.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.

EDGERToN, WIS.,. Aug. "a, 1917.
The absorbing topic throughout the
growing districts now is the outcome of
the 1917 tobacco, for it has reached the
most critical stage of the season. While
some localities have been favored with
rains during the week, quite large
portion of the heavy growing districts
is sadly in need of moisture and every
day the drouth is prolonged thousands
of dollars are cut from the revenue the
growers will ultimately receive. There
is marked unevenness to the fields in
almost all sections and so much small
tobacco that only with the very best
weather conditions during September
can it hope to reach the sheds. There
are hundreds of acres already gone to
an early bud that ought to have been
topped before the plants reached that
stage, which can hardly make other
than B stock. The harvest will be
started in the more forward fields the
coming week, but less than half the
crop has yet been topped
A little buying of the unsold fraction
is still being done but most dealers are
out of the market for the season. We
learn that contracts covering about 500
acres have been sold by local firms to
concerns who were too late to get into
tbs early buying and it is needless to
add that fair advance was paid for
them.
The hipments out of storage reach
300 cases and 2 car loads of bundles.

NEW YORK. Aug. IA, 1917.

Some of the more foresighted men,
bers of the trade have been looking
forward to the time when the cigar
manufacturers will be using the tobac-
CO which has been bought at such high
prices in the past few weeks, and cal
culating upon what their increase In
the cost of production will be. The
situation which they believe they fore
see, is not very encouraging one for
the tobacco industry. It has been es-
timated that the cost of producing
nickel cigars, using this years crop of
tobacco and the Sumatra sold in the
two recent inscriptions, will show an
increase of at least Sc. so from the fig
ures that have hitherto been considered
fairly standard. For instance, twenty
pounds Of filters at ten cent advance
would mean an increase of 81; five
pounds of binders at an advance of ten
cents pound would mean an advance
of fifty cents. The increased cost OF
wrappers next year has been calculated
at So per thousand, which taken with
the known advances in taxation, labor,
boxes and other expenses of that sort,
would bring the increased cost of pro-
duction to at least S6 so. The cost
sheets of the different cigar manufac-
turing concerns vary, of course, but 1t
is impossible to see how any manufac-
turer can manufacturer cigars using
these materials and sell them at price
to retail at five cents piece. Leaf.

NEW YORK, Aug. 18, 1917.

The leaf market situation has devel-
oped no new phase during the week.
One element of stirring activity is a
lively demand for the Java that was
brought into the nands of joDbers at
the inscription last week. Because of
the scarcity of Sumatra the Java is
finding considerable favor now with
manufacturers whose requirements of
Sumatra cannot be filled. In fact, ev-
cry kind of wrapper leaf is in constant
and increasing demand and when there
is lull in the market the packers
mind and activity are directed to the
new crops on whose yield and outcome
the business of future trading must de-
pend.-JOurnal.

Activity in tobacco buying has ceas-

over. The anxiety now is for growth,

prices cause unusual concern with both
