LANCASTER, Pa, Ian. Il, 1919.
If anyone can be found who can fur
nish fair, unbiased report of the exact
condition and quality of Lancaster
county's tobacco crop, he should be
awarded medal.
The growers are stripping and get
ting their holdings in shape for inspec-
ton. Reports of sales come in to Lam
caster one day and are denied the next.
Some few crops, very small ones, have
been bought for the purpose of testing
out the tobacco, but that is about the
extent Of the selling.
Local packers, no less than the grow
ers, are speculating OYER the failure of
big outside concerns to take up part of
the crop. In past years the price was
never considered if the tobacco was
wanted, and there is no reason to sup
pose the prlce question would hold them
off now if they wanted the crop.
Whatever the government reports
may be as to the quantity of tobacco in
the county at large, it is fact that
Lancaster city and county warehouses,
of the big cigar firms, are fairly bulg
ing with the stocks of Lancaster county
tobacco which they hold, While deal
ers and growers speculate why the big
firms don't buy, the latter just sit still
and say nothing.
While many growers have come down
off their high horse, it must not be sup
posed that they are prepared to sell
low. On the contrary. they still look
for, and hold out for, better prices than
such local men as want tobacco are
prepared to give. Just how many
want to buy, nobody knows, though at
at low prices, many dealers would man.
age to buy some. But the local banks,
with all their large resources, have
been pretty we'll tied up through the
purchase of government bonds, and it
is very doubtful if much money could
be secured by packers, and certainly
not with tobacco as security.

NEW YORK, Jan. %, 1919.

The influence of the export trade,
which it was predicted would be such a
potent factor in the maintenance of
prices of domestic tobaccos, is still con-
spicuously absent. There have been
reports during the past week of offers
of substantial prices for low-grade to-
baccos, supposed to be for export, but
whether any considerable sales have
been made, at the prices named, has
not been stated. In fact, from all
present Indications, it would appear
that the export demand must still be
considered an unknown quantity. 1t
can hardly be regarded, therefore, as a
factor, at this time. in determining the
prices which may safely be paid to the
farmers for their 1918 crop.
Water Street packers report con-
tinued fair demand for old tobaccos,
though this may be taken as Indicative
of nothing more significant than that
some manufacturers have found it nec-
essary to replenish their leaf stocks.
In general, however, nothing has de-
veloped to alter the contention that the
majority of the manufacturers are we'll
supplied with raw material, sufficient
for a considerable period. There is
still every reason to believe, however,
that all available stocks Of old tobacco
will be easily disposed of, at present
prices, before the new crop will be fit
for use Leaf.

Buying of the new crop has not start
ed. and farmers are wondering when
the market will open. The packers
prefer to play waiting game, prob
ABLY because of the fact that there is a
strong possibility of considerable dam
age in the crop after it goes through
the water sweat. Cheap prices to the
farmers are not in sight, however. A
lot of noise is being stirred up by the
local country papers, and farmers are
taking quite hand in the arguments.
With the Kentucky market just few
miles south of US, showing better prices
than a year ago, it is going to be hard
work to make our farmers see lower
prices for our tobacco. 1t will have to

EDGERTON, WIS. Jan. 81, 1919.
The buying movement, which has
been quietly conducted of late, contin-
ues in a moderate manner whenever
growers are willing to accept prices
considerably shaded from those fixed
at the recent farmers meetings. The
following sample sales show about the
maximum prices paid in this vicinity:
Otto Naset. Ga at 25c straight.
Samuel Clark, ga at 24c straight.
Ezra Bussey, ga at 24&c straight.
Geo. Dickinson, LA at 242c straight.
H. C. Marsden, Ga at 24ac straight.
Julius Hageberg, la at 25&15c.
AS the farmers become more recon
ciled to the going figures the movement
is likely to attract the larger opera
tors. Word comes that buying in
Pennsylvania has started at around Is
cents. Receiving of the early pur
chases is going on at delivery points,
but the information reaches US that in
the Vernon county districts some dep
slashing is being done and much of the
4Oc tobacco is being taken for various
reasons at about an average of Is
cents and deal of dissatisfaction pre-
walls. This confirms the belief that
only an option was taken on the to-
bacco when the pretended sale was
made last Augusta practive that cam
not be too highly condemned.
The American Sumatra Co. open
their warehouse in this market for
handling the new crop next Tuesday.
The shipments out of storage reach
150cs and a cars of bundles from this
market to atl points since last report.
