NEW YORK, June "a, 1915

NEW YORK, June "a, 1918. !
Cheerfulness spread yesterday over
the market when the news got abroad
of the decision of our custom officials
that the interned 1900 bales of Su-
matra and Java will be auctioned off in
bond and not duty free This means
that the tobacco, if it should come into
the market, will share the same rate
of duty as other imported wrapper leaf
has to and will, consequently, be bar
red from scheming and involuntary
cut-rate competitor. No doubt the
1900 bales will find buyers but with
the SI.85 duty on top of their purchase
price, the market will have to stand
their competition while the purchasers
may derive some benefit from it. An
other cheerful report concerned the ex-
cellent prospects of our new tobacco
crops whose plants are now being
transplanted under the most favorable
weather conditions for the growing and
development. If the favorable wealth
er should continue and help to produce
larger and sound crops, the farmer,
under the increased yield, may relent
on too exacting price and give the
packer and manufacturer a chance
again to thrive on not too extortion-
ate figure for his raw material. Jour

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN. WIS.,. June 2S, 1918.


The 1918 tobacco crop is now prac-
tically transplanted and fairly we'll
started on its growth in the fields. An
all night rain on Monday has proven a
great help in finishing the planting and
in permitting the resetting necessary
by the damage from wire and cut
worms. Growers are congratulating
themselves on having an almost per-
feet stand in the fields and an extreme
ly early start. To all appearances a
full contemplated acreage has been
planted and from 10 to Is per cent
above that of year ago.
A persistent effort is being made to
start buying movement at this early
date, which has been partly successful
in few localities. Prices are tempt
ing enough, ranging from 25 to 80 cents
for the delivery of sound tobacco, but
growers are very generally reluctant
to enter in contracts at this time.
Whether these objections will be over
come by constant opportunities re-
mains to be seen. The report comes
to us that a few hundred acres have
been contracted in the Trempeleau
valley during the week
The shipments out of storage reach
$50 cases to all points from this mar
ket since last report.

LANCASTER, Pa, June 19, 1913

LANCASTEK, EA., y Juno II, 1910.
The packers are not little concered
over the prevalence of an unusual
amount of black rot among this county's
1917 tobacco. A number of packings
inspected show that fifty per cent of
the cases have such damaged goods,
while in other packings the percentage
is less, but still larger than usual, and
because such a large percentage has
developed SO early it is feared that con-
ditions may be much worse later. Ev-
cry year certain loss is looked for
from damaged goods and shrinkage,
but in tobacco like the 1917, costing on
an average of twenty-five cents a
pound the loss would be disastrously
heavy through the packing developing
more than the minimum amount of
damaged goods.
In years gone by it was not unusual
for packing to be ready for inspect
ing in April Now the inspection will
be spread over considerable period of
time, for the crop will be in the sweat
over long range of weeks.
By the time this reaches the reader,
the last planting in Lancaster county
will have been finished and the 1918
crop all set for the growing. The bulk
of the planting was finished early in
this month, but there are quite num-
Der of growers who could not be con-
vinced by any argument that the best
results are obtained except by mid
June planting. So they waiGed until
the month was half over before trans
ferring the plants from the beds to the
field, and have thereby missed two
weeks perfect growing weather. 1t
could not have been improved upon, for
there was just enough rain, sunshiny
days and warm nights.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, June Is, 1918.
The height of the tobacco setting
season is now at hand. Tented grow
ers have been exceedingly handicapped
by being unable to stretch their cloth
their plants. Help is still big draw
back, good deal of the operations
connected with tobacco growing being
delayed time and time again. The first
hail storm of the season recently came
thick and heavy in South Windsor,
keeping up its furious attack for sew
eral minutes. Some damage was re-
ported in the young tobacco.

VIROQUA, Wis, June 19, 1918.

Throughout Vernon county trans
planting plants from the beds to the
growing fields is well approaching COM
pletion, and but for shortage in plants
in some sections. the work of setting
would be practically completed the
present week. Many have already fin
ished, while others have but commenc-
ed. Fields are looking well. The fine
shower ST Tuesday was blessing, the
fields having become dry and baked and
newly set plants withered. Some have
a surplus of plants while others are
short. One party came from West Sa-
lem to secure plants. The acreage
will be greater than for any season in
the past dozen years. Censor.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

It seemed destined that it was only a
question of time when such attractive
offers would be made tobacco growers
that contracts for the sale of the 1918
crop, only just fairly planted, would be
entered into. Buyers have been cir
culating about the growing districts
ever since the planting began and it
was known that tempting offers were
frequently made but the aversion of
most farmers to listen to their impor-
tunities has prevented any amount
of contracts being closed. However,
in some Of the outlying sections the
entering wedge was made and particu-
larly in the Trempealeau Valley during
the week and close to three hundred
acres were taken over by at least half
dozen firms which were competing
for the output of the most experienced
growers. Prices of twenty-five cents
first offered rose quickly to thirty cents
and above for the delivery Of merchant
able leaf. No ore can scarcely blame
the growers for accepting such prices
which are higher than ever before paid
Wisconsin farmers, for it ensures them
profit, under normal conditions of
harvest, that very few ever dreamed
of realizing. There are plenty of buy
ers located in other sections doubtless
ready to carry forward the movement
if growers were disposed to grant op-
tions at this time. And it is possible
the present offers might overcome the
prejudice generally entertained not to
sell until the crop is made and the
earliest campaign ever inaugurated in
this state will go forward. We shall
not attempt to predict what will oc-
cur.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1918-06-28

The tobacco trade is anxiously await
ing to learn if the recent advance in
freight tariffs carries with it the aboli-
ton OF all concentration rates. Ii so
the packers must be prepared to shoul-
der good sized burden.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1918-06-28

It is so often stated that it hardly
need be repeated here that tobacco
dealers are spectators in the largest
sense of the term. They are accstomed
to take long chances and greater risks
than almost any dealer in other kinds
of merchandise But we have so fre-
qsentiy witnessed exciting buying cam
paigns in this state they no longer at
tract much attention, and to many is
only an incident to the business. War
times brings about such abnormal con-
ditions that almost anything may be
expected. The crop just planted will
be larger than for some years past is
already certain and should we be fav-
ored with normal growing season
Wisconsin is likely to produce the usual
amount of binder leaf the market needs
from this state. Unless the large op-
orators desire to put the price where
the small dealer cannot stand the pace
there ought to be plenty Of tobacco for
everybody grown in 1913. The present
indication is that the growers have the
situation we'll in hand and there is very
little likelihood of there being any
cheap tobacco sold whatever happens.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1918-06-28

With the leasing of the American
Cigar Co. s plant in Edgerton by the
American Sumatra Tobacco Co. of New
York comes the announcement that this
latter concern is to enter the Wisconsin
field as a packer of domestic binders in
1918. The meteoric rise of the Ameri-
can Sumatra Co. in recent years has
been the sensation of the tobacco trade.
Originally engaged in growing shade
grown wrapping stock in Florida and
later in New England and the absorp-
tion of several small concerns it has
grown to such proportions that its sales
the coming year will reach $500, 600.
It's common stock is now quoted at $14O
a share Interests identified with the
company believe that the present So
dividend is not a proper criterion of the
worth of the stock. They declare that
when the company was organized eight
years ago the constituent properties
were taken in at the buyers valua-
tions, which were prices very much
less than the properties are now worth.
In the meantime some $50 share has
been put back into the property from
earnings. The fiscal year now nearing
its close will show So, 900, 900 added to
net quick assets. The coming of the
A. S. Co. into Wisconsin adds another
large operator to the competition al
ready packing here. Their purchases
will be made with purpose of resale
to the trade rather manufacturing.
1t IS not disclosed as yet who will have
charge of the buying end of the busi-
ness in Wisconsin though it is certain
they will operate extensively for the
plant has unlimited storage facilities.

Governor Goodrich, after doubling
his subscription to the Fourth Libe-t,
Loan yesterday, made the following
appeal to the people of Indiana:
ut Is of vital importance that the
Fourth Liberty Loan be subscribed
without delay. Our words of loyalty
to the nation will be In vain unless
we back our words with our money.
"The American people, firm in the
conviction that their cause is just,
insist on unconditional surrender
and the punishment Of the autOcrats
who have plunged the world into war.
devastated the fairest part of conti-
nent and destroyed the lives Of mil
lions of men from the best blood of
Europe and America.
Discourage Kaiser.
Nothing could encourage the kaiser
more in this crisis and nothing would
discourage President Wilson and our
sons, who are giving their lives for
our cause, than to have the word go
out that the American people had fail
ed to furnish the government with the
money necessary to carry on the war.
"The war Is by no means over. The
expenses of the government will in
crease enormously as our boys go
across in increasing numbers, and
even should peace come within six
months, the coming year will call for
the expenditure of more money on
our part than any other year Of the
war.
Indiana is not yet over the top in
the Fourth Liberty bond sale. The
eyes Of the nation are upon us. Our
