The close of the American Sumatra
inscriptions today will mark an ever
memorable event in the history of our
leaf market. But the venture proved
as successful as it was original. To-
days inscription was attended by even
a bigger crowd than the two previous
ones and whatever the result, as is be-
ing fully detailed in our news columns,
the buyers have cause to congratulate
themselves as much as their enterpris-
ing importers. For it is hardly possi-
BILE to picture the distressing position
in which our cigar industry would have
found itself on account of the absolute
ly necessary wrapper leaf if help had
not come to them by the enterprise of
the American Sumatra Import Corpor-
alton. AS but half of the supply of
Sumatra was on hand this year a de-
ficiency of $4,000 bales would have
meant most serious embarrassment to
the continuance of our cigar industry,
if those $4,000 bales would not have
been supplied in the nick of time by
our American importing syndicate. AS
it is the outlook for further supply of
Sumatra for this year or for next year
is gloomy indeed, for there doesn't t
seem the slightest prospect in view
that Holland will be able to supply us
next year with any Sumatra and the
salvation of our cigar industry will de-
pend on whether the American Suma-
ira Import Corporation will, or can,
repeat it's venturesome experiment. AS
regards trading in the market, it re-
mains in statu quo. Journal.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Sept. II, 1917.
Last weeks frost damage will ex-
ceed rather than fall short of the esti-
mate of 1,0OO,O 900 made by The To-
bacco Leaf. Several columns of space
would be required for detailed story
of the disaster-for such it is without
the least stretch of the imagination.
Briefly, Suffield, Conn.,, which has the
largest tobacco acreage of any town in
New England, suffered most. From
300 to 1000 acres of tobacco were dam
aged by frost in Sufield. In major
ity of instances the loss is total. In
others there will be some salvage.
Where the frost was not too heavy the
upper leaves protected the lower part
of the plant and these leaves may yield
a moderate quantity of good tobacco.
The loss in Sufield is probably upward
of $500, 900.

VIROQUA, WIS, Sept. 20, 1917.
Favorable weather a reasonable por-
tion of the time has hastened tobacco
harvest since the late frost, and we are
led to believe that today more than
thirds of the acreage is in the
sheds of growers.
The Censor's last week estimate of
frost damage proves not to have been
materially inaccurate. Possibly the
loss is not quite as severe as reported.
A few fields in this territory will pass
as little injured and greater per cent
of leaf will be saved than first estim-
ated. We reported so percent loss.
Now we should say 33 to40 per cent
will cover it.
Buyers and their representatives
have been riding the growing districts
making adjustments in prices and
counseling as to the harvest and future
handling So far as we can learn there
appears to prevail a desire on part of
growers and buyeTs for an equitable
adjustment. One thing is certain
that the 1917 crop, damaged as it is,
will average more per pound than any
crop grown here in the past ten years.

TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS. Sept. 2S, 1917.

October 1st is near at hand and a
considerable portion of the tobacco
crop is still standing in the fields. The
warm weather of late has kept the be-
lated tobacco growing instead of ripen-
ing, so the growers have not pro-
gressed with the harvesting as rapidly
as was hoped. However, most of them
are so well along with this work that
the fraction outstanding in most cases
can be cut and piled should further
frosts threaten The late tobacco has
been doing so we'll that farmers have
been taking long chances in order. to
add little more leaf to the yield. If
they can be granted stay of another
week the crop would be shielded in
good order. Ideal weather for curing
down the early harvested portion pre-
walls.
Packers have quite generally closed
contracts with stemming concerns for
their low grades that are to come out
in warehouse handling at higher prices
than ever before paid for this class of
leaf. There promises to be larger
percentage of the crop to be turned
than usual.
Sampling of 1919 packings is still in
progress and it is found that very little
rehandling is required.
The shipments out of storage reach
$50 cases and 8 cars of bundles since
last report.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

Contracts for low grades of the 1917
crop which the packers usually dispose
of for stemming purposes are being
quite generally entered into even some
months in advance Of the delivery of
the goods. Despite the fact that quite
large proportion of the present crop,
owing to the hail, frost and short to-
bacco, must eventually be classed as
stemming leaf, buyers seem anxious to
control the output. The prices, too,
are ruling higher than ever before paid
for Wisconsin low grades, higher even
than packers would have been glad to
receive for their finest binder leaf a
few years ago. Such unusual figures
simply reflect the almost famine con-
dition Of the cigar leaf market at pres
ent and discloses the fact of a world
shortage Of tobacco that has developed
since the European war. When the
cheapest class of leaf produced brings
such outrageously high prices there is
ample reason why dealers plunged into
a wild campaign to control the present
crop, assuming all kinds of chances
long before the tobacco was matured.
Now comes the second rush to buy up
what the packers usually discard in
warehouse handling and grading of
binder leaf So it is easier to under
stand now the almost frantic action of
buyers when the market opened. Good
judges estimate that more than 20 mil
lion pounds of the present crop will be
turned to the stemmers as low grades
SO there need be no apparent shortage
of this class of Wisconsin, while Ohio,
Pennsylvania and New England will
yiel enormous quantities also, but top
notch prices continue just the same.
The enormous demand for stemmed to-
;bacco late years seems to indicate that
a good share of the cigar leaf produced
lis now devoted to this purpose, while
not so many years ago low grades were
considered drug upon the market.
Looking forward one would almost con-
clude that cheap tobacco is long ways
ahead.
