NEW YORK, Jan. 4, 1919

NEW YORK, Jan. 4, 1919.
The first week of the year starts with
business much in the same condition
that it has been in for the past month
or SO. There is very little inquiry for
old goods, and it is not expected that
there will be much business in this
direction until after the manufacturers
have ascertained just how they stand
Reports from the various iobbing CEN
ters of the country indicate that both
jobbers and retailers are very nearly
cleaned out Of stocks by the holiday
business. Money was plentiful with the
average man and he bought extensively
of smoking materials. This fact will
undoubtedly have it's effect upon start
ing the factories off on the new year
at fair rate of production Within a
week or two the jobbers will know what
they need, and the manufacturers will
undoubtedly be receiving orders. In ad-
dltion, many factories carried many or
ders over into the new year. Very few
cancellations have been received as a
consequence of their inability to deliver
goods before the holidays All these
factors work toward the end Of stimu-
lating business in leaf tobacco.
The one type that has experienced
activity recently is the Connecticut
ShadegrOwn. A couple of weeks before
Christmas, manufacturers visited the
Hartford warehouses and examined the
tobacco and made their acquisitions for
next year. Possibly they did not buy
as heavily as in past years, but the sit
uatiOn is much more satisfactory than
is usually the case, because they had
the opportunity to see the tobacco be-
fore they bought it, and knew what
they were getting.
The necessities of the case will bring
the force-sweated binders upon the
market within the next two or three
months. Until Shadegrown pre- empted
the utilization of the warehouses al
this time Of the year, the force-sweated
binders came upon the market early in
January. Binders are in greater scare
ity than any other type of cigar leaf
now, and the consequence is that in or
der to supply this demand the binders
will be hurried along as fast as is con-
sistent with the means at the disposal
of the packers, but the Shade tobaccos
will be taken care of first.
The general dullness that has pre-
vailed in the market for the past three
months has naturally brought about a
feeling in Water street that business
never will be good again. This feeling
is hardly justified by the situation In
fact. Water street is the only tobacco
market in the country where this feel
ing prevails. Optimism apparently
reigns everywhere else. journal.

EDGERToN. WIS. Jan. II, 1919

EDGERToN. Wis. Jan. IL, 1919
While there is still some riding oil
buyers in the growing districts and of
fers submitted, there is such wide
gulf between the value at which the
farmers are holding their tobacco and
prices named by dealers as to preclude
very much business being done. even
among the small dealers, for none OF
the largest concerns are maintaining
their buying force. At we'll attended
meeting of growers held in Edgerton
Tuesday, minimum price of 80 cents
was agreed upon as holding price and
should the meeting at Madison Satur-
day name similar figures, we do not see
much hope of an early movement of
the balance of the crop. The dealers
do not appear to be in any hurry to lift
either of the Pennsylvania or Ohio
crops and with Wisconsin farmers
putting an upset price with deter
mination to hold at that figure, they
may conclude Wisconsin is good state
to keep away from for while at least
and decidedly so unless they can meet
the price demanded
The receiving of the crop is liberal
enough to keep the warehouses now in
operation with sufficient stock for
present needs. So far there seems to
be an abundant supply of labor
The shipments out of storage reach
250 cases and cars of bundles from
this market to all points.

LANCASTER, Pa, Jan. s, 1919
There is no longer any doubt about
Lancaster county tobacco growers hav-
ing got wise to the conditions prevail
ing in tobacco circles. They now real
ize what the packers have been telling
them all along, that it was futile for
them to believe they would be paid the
same prices for the 1918 crop as they
received for the 1917. Not only are
conditions different. but the tobacco
itself is different, according to the
statement of the packers. The latter
have been doing a good deal of riding
through the county lately for the pur-
pose of getting line on the tobacco
itself, rather than on prices. The lat
ter are not bothering the packers now
adays. for they are quite well assured
that the growers know that they can
not get the exorbitant prices demanded

N0T THE TAX;
 BUT THE METHOD

We have had few days of the new luxury taxes" and it is safe to say that we have had all we want of fool system of tax collection that adds the greatest burden to the greatest num- Der.
 The Evening Herald quoted at great length from a discussion of the luxury taxes by Charles c. Cushman, before the Albuquerque Rotary Club. MT. Cushman summed up the whole situ- ation when he said that it is not the tax itself, but the manner of it's. col lection that arouses the antagonism of every citizen who comes in contact with it.
 A hat, collar button, suspenders, a bolt of ribbon-all of the little nec- essities of men and women are subject to this new tax. The rate of. taxation is not heavy. We can stand it; but we object, to being subjected to sys- tenn of collecting it which doubles our personal bookkeeping and which now makes of every merchant and of every retail clerk deputy internal revenue collector.
 After the difficulties encountered in making change and in getting service under the new taxing system most of us will agree that the forecast that collecting this tax will cost forty mil lion dollars more annually than the tax will produce in revenue for our government is probably correct. Most of us, also, will probably be inclined to unite in protest against this tax to the new Congress that will give it backing of fifty million people, in stead of the ten millions who the AL buquerque merchant predicted would join in the petition for repeal. If the little items of daily use must be taxed, let the tax be levied at it's source. It may cost us more in the long run in actual cash, but it will save us double the value in saving us from an unnecessary and irritable de tail that has no business in retail trade.-Albuquerque Herald.

 FrilIs Add to Cost.
 The house, like woman's dress, costs in proportion to the frills there are on 1t. Every angle there is in the framework means duplication of the work of constructing the corners. The bungalow has only four corners, al- though thereis nothing plain about its exterior appearance. The building Is 26 feet wide and 34 feet long. But to this has been added the sun parlor, 12 by z feet, and the hip roof, which take away the plainness and make it an at tractive home.
 Five rooms and bath and the sun parlor comprise the space in this bun galow. Living room, dining room and kitchen are ranged along one side and two bedrooms with the bath between them are on the other side.
 A notable feature of the interior ar rangcment Is the placing of the sun parlor so that it Is of both the living md dining rooms, adding to both 'he

WORK OF VOCATIONAL
 DIRECTOR APPROVED

At meeting of the state board of education for vocational training yes terday the plans of Director Colodny for the year were approved by the board. The question of his reelection to the directorship was proposed but by the following vote it was resolved to take no action: Ayes, Superintend- ent of Public Instruction C.. o. Case; Prof. A. J. Mathews, of the Tempe Normal, and G. F. Cornelius, of the Northern Arizona Normal. Nays, Dr. R. B, Won KleinSmid, of the Univer- sity of Arizona; c. F. Philbrook, su- perintendent of the Bisbee schools; H. E. Matthews, principal of the Mesa high school, and Elsie Toles, county school superintendent of Cochise county.
 No other candidate was proposed and so far as is known there is no other.
 In support of MT. Colodny, Mir. Case offered communication from Benja- min w. Johnson, federal agent of in dustrial education in which the work of the director was highly compli- mented, especially in the following statement: "In the promotion of the vocational work no other state in this region has done more than Arizona" !"
 Governor Campbell, who has taken a great interest in vocational work and the work of the department, though present in his capacity as ex- officio member. did not cast vote.-- Phoenix Republican.

 Every substantial American citizen. man and woman. who is the head of a family wants home--not merely place in which to eat and sleep, but a real home. Homes are made by those who live in them, and when the house is owned by the tenants 1t Is notice able that great deal more attention Is paid to the interior comforts and the exterior appearance than when it Is rented.

comfort and convenience of these two rooms.
 A study of the floor plan will reveal that th.s bungalow has some excellent features in the arrangement Of the rooms. The living room is of good size. II feet G inches, by 13 feet 5 inches. The arrangement of the win dows, two in front and one at the side make 1t light, pleasant room. En- trance to the sun parlor Is gained through doorway at the end, while there is a colonnade between 1t and the dining room.
 The latter Is of the exact size of the living room. which. because of the colonnade opening, makes the two rooms practically one.
 The kitchen is practically square, be- ing 9 feet 6 inches. by feet. Of 1t Is good-stzed pantry on one side and the stairs to the basement on the other.
 The two bedrooms are each 9 feet 6 inches. by II feet 3 inches Both have closets and two large windows.
 From this brief description there may be gained some idea of the com fort and convenience this home will bring to the owner. The housekeep- CTS daily work is all confined to the one floor, while the greatest portion of that work is done on one side of the house.
 Heated at Small Cost.
 There is one advantage in home such as this that will appeal to every thrifty person. It will cost little to heat it. The heating plant, of course, will be located in the basement, which extends under the whole of the house. This, too, can be subdiyided so as to provide the necessary places to store food, fuel and whatever Is not in daily use

 "Bores are always talkative. There is no such thing as silent bore. One of the ilk once said to me at party:

 This design may be elaborated 1T the home builder so desires. Stucco over any of the materials to which 1t will adhere may be employed instead of the boards.
 Taken as whole, the bungalow will fiji the needs of the average family. The installation of bed that is con- cealed behind doors in the living room will add to the sleeping accommoda- tiOns, while ceiling bed In the sun parlor will transform 1t at night into sleeping porch.

Eph, 6:l-9.
Homes make up communities and
communities make up the states and
the States make up The nation. As the
homes are, the nation will be. A home
does not depend upon fine furniture or
upon servants, or upon wealth or
learning or station, but rather upon
love and unselfishncss. Christ Is the
great home-maker. and one person, II
he or she IS sincere Christian. can
bring Christ into the home. just as one
person can go far toward spelling a
home.
The central place Of the true home Is
the family altar II all that gather
round It are there because they love
Jesus Christ and wish 10 come closer
to him in that act, they cannot fail
to come closer TO one another. one
OF the great advantages Of home life
Is the chance ii gives us TO be OF SER
vice to others.
In the home we hear the truth about
ourselves Here we get absolutely
frank criticism. II we receive IL in
the right way and make a wise use OF
IL, we shall be immensely benefited.
Il is easy to see faults in the intimacy
OF home life, and fault finding is one
OF the chief evils OF that life. 10 Is
a good rule never 20 find fault at
home unless II is really necessary. and
loving thought and prayer show IL TO
be for the best. Impulslve fault-lnd-

BOSTON, Aug. 30.-As a means of enforcing their demand for local recognition of their union, the mem pers of the Actors Association will go out on strike on Monday in this city, which will mean the temporary closing of practically every show house in Boston, except the movies.

 The question of striking was sub mitted to the members of the or ganization this week, and the deci- sion to go out was almost unani- nous. The strike will involve 300 actors.
