AN IMPROVISED DRESSING
TABLE.

1t is not always quite easy. on
moving into new quarters. to adjust
ones furniture and household goods
TO the fresh requirements, says a
London correspondent. On such
occasion, it was found that a dress
ing table was lacking for one of
the spare bedrooms i'm the new
house. The rest of the furniture in
the room was good. and it was felt
that a cheap or inferior dressing
table would look out of place, while,
on the other hand. any large ex-
penditure was at the moment un-
desira BILE. The room contained two
windows, between which stood a ra-
diator-never an ornamental object
The problem of providing a dress
ing table and cOncealing the radia-
tor was solved at one blow. so to
speak. and at merely nominal cost.
A carpenter was called in to fix
a plain deal shelf. about 20 inches
deep, between the windows and
above the radiator. Round this was
tackled a length Of ready-tucked
nainsook muslin, such as may be
bought anywhere by the yard; an
embroidered white cloth was laid
over the top of the shelf, while
above it was fixed to the wall a
pretty old gilt mirror which had
been acquired some time before in
an old curiosity shop. The appear
ance of the dressing table. thus con-
trived contained nothing to clash
with the rest Of the furniture in the
room.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET


EDGERToN. WIS.,. Nov %, 1918
The tobacco growers are now busily
engaged throughout the growing dis
tricts in stripping out their crop and
bundling it for delivery. The finest
kind of casing spell early in the week
brought the hanging leaf into such
pliable condition that very large
share of the crop was removed from
the curing barns and permitting the
farmers to complete the last stage of
preparing this crop for market. Moth
ing ought now to stand in the way of
the resumption of the buying move
ment unless it is the disposition of the
packers to wait while. Certainly
while the stripping is in progress is the
best time for buyers to make their in
spection of the cured tobacco and de-
termine it's merits, so that trading
could be intelligently conducted. How
ever, we have yet to learn of any re-
cent offers being made or contracting
effected. Growers are evidently ex-
pecting somewhere near former prices
for the balance of their holdings.
Warehouse handling could commence
almost any time now if the packers
were prepared to start the work so
early.
The shipments out of storage reach
225cs and cars of bundles from this
market to all points since last report.

Pennsylvania.

LANCASTER, PA, Nov 13, 1918
Local leaf tobacco dealers say they
see the silver lining of the cloud, which
has overhung the Lancaster leaf mar
ket, in the prospect of an early peace.
For many months the market here has
been so depressed that old goods, of
first-class quality, offered at figures be-
low their actual cost, have no buyers.
Packers believe that as soon as it is
possible to resume foreign shipments
they will have flood of orders for leaf
from abroad.
A good deal of criticism has attended
the publication, in local papers, of an
appeal to growers to hold the 1918 crop
for most unreasonable figures. Lately
the growers have evidenced an inclina-
tion to be more reasonable in their de-
mands than they were earlier in the
season, and it is possible the agitation
referred to may have the effect Of get
ting packers and growers wide apart
again.
No stripping has so far been done,
nor is there likely to be any done be-
fore December or January, unless the
tobacco is contracted for. Local dealers
are well satisfied that there has been
no buying, because they are not ready
to take on any more goods while what
they have is not selling. They do not
believe that even twenty cents will be
paid for the new crop unless there 0c
ours brisk demand for old goods.
The new tobacco is reported as cur
ng satisfactorily and there is every
reason for believing that it will prove
desirable to the cigar manufacturers.

NEW YORK. Nov. 12. 1918


In spite of the momentous news of
Monday and the avenues for specula-
ton and prophecy opened by the close
of hostihties, Water Street packers
and importers are fairly unanimous in
their attitude of conservatism in regard
to the immediate future. In the do
mestic market opinion is pretty well
divided in regard to the probable effect
of the opening of European markets on
prevailing prices. Authoritative in
formation from governmental sources
that no space in ships will probably be
available for several months TO come
for any exports but food and absolutely
essential supplies for the half-starved
people of Europe, would tend to eX-
clude, for the time being at least, the
probability that the European demand
will have any very immediate effect
upon the domestic market. Leaf.

New York.

NEW YORK, Nov. 10, 1913.
The knowledge that peace is hut
short time away has undoubtedly had
the effect of stiffening the market in
leaf tobacco. This does not necessar-
lily mean that the holders of leaf to-
bacco have made up their minds def
nately that there is bound to be ar in
crease in price, but they do believe that
the tendency will be toward higher
prices, and they are willing to take the
chance. If it becomes necessary to
sacrifice their tobacco, they can do it
later as well as now The general
trend of opinion is that we are in for
rising market, and this opinion is not
based merely upon the expectation of
revival of export business, but it is an
ticipated that domestic business will
show an Improvement 1t is in evidence

There are evidences that the actual

industrial establishments of the coun-
try to absorb the labor that is released
from the armies. Ii these processes are
carried on in an orderly and we'll con-
sidered manner, the shock of the tran
sition from a war footing to a peace
footing will be gradual, and there will
be no dislocation of economic and indus
trial forces, such as some people antic-
ipated, and consequently there ought
to be no prolonged period of depression
while the readjustment is being made.
Furthermore, manufacturers in making
their plans for the coming year have
already discounted conditions that are
worse than anything they will have to
contend with. In the immediate fu-
ture, of course, conditions will show no
very radical change, but any changes
that do occur will undoubtedly be for
the better journal.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

The week has brought an unusually
long season of casing weather which
brought the hanging tobacco through
all portions of the sheds into fine con-
dition to remove from the curing barns
for stripping. Warm temperatures
prevailed during the damp and the
growers were given ample time to re-
move as much of the crop as they de-
sired. 1t is somewhat difficult to pre-
dict what proportion of the crop was
taken down possibly half throughout
the growing districts depending large
ly upon the provisions the farmers
have in regard TO help in stripping.
The work of preparing the crop for
market can now go forward and with
many who have cleaned out their sheds
will be completed before freezing
weather sets in. Where stripping has
commenced it is found to be the best
cured crop the state has produced In
many years The leaf is extremely
light colored, thin and lighter in yield
than many supposed. One thing is
certain, the buyers will find no excess
moisture to complain of. Those who
strip out their tobacco before the stalks
have frozen will get away from any
danger of stain on the leaf that comes
later from the ooze Of the frozen green
stalks. The tobacco is so we'll cured
that there is little danger, growers
think, from bundle heating from now
on.
