Tobacco Notes.

VIM Clark, who is with F. P. McIn-
tosh in the tobacco business at Viro-.
qua, was in the city few days last
week.
The Farmers Equity Warehouse Co.
of London and Rockdale have sold their
rags and filters to Scotch Dillon Co.,
N. T.. earle, agent. They have SAM
pied their London packing of 1850 cases
and have the Rockdale packing of APO
cases left to sample.
There is going to be brisk demand
for sorters and other labor when the
tobacco warehouses open. The number
of warehouses that will sort is as large
as last year, if not larger. The first
season of moist weather is going to see
practically all tobacco come down for
stripping, and it will be delivered as
fast as it is in the bundle.
The Wisconsin crop reporting service
estimates that the 1919 tobacco yield
per acre will average 1900 pounds,
which is 3O0 pounds less than the 1915
average. The average for Rock county
is placed at 1910, Dane 1915 and Vernon
1910 pounds per acre. The estimated
production for the state is 62, 400, 900 or
about II million pounds less than last
year.
The Crawford County Press is re-
sponsible for the statement that the
1900 acres of tobacco raised in the
county will bring the growers nearly
$500, 600. This is an average of $500
per acre. The average yield per acre
is estimated at 1900 pounds. 1t is fur
Their stated that Mr.. J. P. Mooney,
representative of the Lorillard Co.,
bought one-half of the Crawford county
acreage.

Joseph Harrington, engineer for
the Unites States fuel administration,
recommends the following plan for the
removal of SCOT: The fire is put into
good condition with a substantial body
of hot fuel. Common salt, thoroughly
dried, is then thrown or sprinkled onto
the incandescent fuel bed in quantity
depending entirely on the size of the
furnace. In the case of house heat
ing furnace, one pound at time is
ample; in the case of large power
plant boiler, four or five scoops full
may be required. The hampers are
kept open so as to maintain the fur
mace temperature and the salt is allow
ed to remain until the fumes have en-
tirely disappeared. Immediately upon
charging the salt, the furnace becomes
filled with dense white fumes which
may require as much as half an hour to
entirely disappear. If results are not
secured on the first application, it
should be repeated as many times as
necessary. Once the heating surface
is thoroughly cleaned, small applica-
ton every few days is usually sufficient
to keep it so. This cheap and simple
process should be tried to prevent fires
from chimneys and to conserve coal,

Thanksgiving Day.

Give thanks unto the Lord for He
is good, and His mercy endureth for
ever"
The quoted Thanksgiving proclama-
ton is very old, but it is not antiquat-
ed. Its brevity is refreshing, it's clear
ness perfect, and its purpose is not to
be mistaken Of 1t enjoins upon all
the duty of giving thanks; it names
the one to whom thanks should be rem
dered, and gives convincing reason why
thanksgiving should be rendered to the
Lord. The heart that understood, and
the lips that uttered these words had
been enlightened by divine revelation
and made sure by living experience.
The goodness and mercy of the Lord
are absolute attributes of Him and of
Him alone. His nature is goodness,
His ways are merciful. He is not only
good in Himself; He is good to US. The
source of His goodness to us is in His
nature, and the occasion for showing 1t
is in our need Of it. Our need is our
only desert; not because we merit His
goodness, but because He is mindful of
our needs. He is merciful in His deal
ings with u.s. Gods mercy provokes
gratitude. Thanksgiving is the con-
scious response of heart which has
experienced mercy.
The head of our national government
and the head of our commonwealth
have called upon US to meet in our
houses of worship to show forth in
prayer and praise our faith in the one
Lord of goodness and mercy, and to
express and confess our dependence on
Him and our gratitude toward Him for
what we are, have and receive.
The significance of Thanksgiving day
is wholly spiritual, though our mind
and soul on that day are lifted up by
the remembrance of the blessings we
have enjoyed as men and citizens of
this nation and country during the
year that is past. To US, in higher
degree than to other nations of the
earth, the goodness and mercy of the
Lord have been abundant in material
blessings, and it is right that we, above
all others, should confess this and give
thanks. This is done not only by the !
outward act of religious worship, but |
by uniting the worship with acts of |
goodness, mercy ard love toward our
fellow men. When these are the things |
that move our hearts and direct our |
thoughts and deeds on Thanksgiving
day, we observe it spiritually and in |
harmony with the principles governing |
our forefathers who first ordained the |
observance of the day, and in conform |
ity with the eternal will of Him who is |
good and whose mercy endureth for
ever.

THE political whispering gallery in
the state has let it become. known that
Senator George B. Skogmo, formerly
of the 10th district, now of Milwaukee,
is prospective candidate for secretary
of state. Other names are also in the
field. Mr.. Skogmo is to cross the ora
torical foils with J. N. Tittemore, the
Equity head, at the convention in Mad
ison this week. They are to debate the
relative merits of the Marketing bills
introduced by the respective contes-
Uants in the last legislature, the Skog-
