more desirable and expensive in the
windup.
Again. no man can tell what may
happen in the tobacco fields this year
All are not "fat" years, as the Egyp
tians discovered in the days of Moses
Tome will come when they will want
to lay the Ohio crop away for future
use, just as they, the manufacturers
have been doing for century. What
is unsold at that time may bring a
worthwhile price, and most likely
will.
Farmers Newly Organized.
There are no cooperative societies
in York county, nor was there any
farmers organization of tobacco grow
ers here until few weeks ago, or
say in February. In response to a
call meeting was held in that month
and 25 signed the membership roll
An active campaign is now planned
but even SO. it is entirely too late to
act with regard to the last crop. AS
stated on yesterday, York county has
little left to sell. The farmers, as a
body, are out Of the market. and some
OF the poorer crops were sold at 10
cents, and now and then at less.
The horse has been stolen; let's
lock the door.
Visible and Invisible.
In estimating the amount Of leaf
on hand the amounts reported for tax
alton to the government by the hold
ers, comprise the visible" supply.
But this has nothing to do with the
totals In har6eo Of growers THIS is
the invisible" supply, and will be
large or small, Depending on the kinu
of a market the planter has had to
sell on, and if price was satisfactory
to him. So, then, the total visible on
one date may be practically the total
available. The following year condi-
tons may be reversed and the invis-
IDLE supply be larger than that in the
warehouses of the trade.
We have some interesting figures to
present to the growers as to the Wis
ible in the packers and manufactur.
ers' hands, which will be printed With
in day or two. OF these the tobacco
trade are fully aware; but not so the
average farmer. These will be given
by way of comparison for three years,

RESUMPTION OF CIGAR INDUSTRY
AT EARLY DATE IS PREDICTION

| square miles and the small amount of
| its land devoted to the weed is really
unimportant. 1t is land of diversi-
fled farming and a very rich country.
After deducting 5000 acres for tobac-
CO there are still $4,000 acres for
other crops. This means that tobacco
cuts little ice in adding to the total
| farm revenue.
What Cigar Makers Say
With reference to 1915, 1916 and
| 1917 leaf now in hands of manufacture
! ers, and to a small extent in the
hands of packers and jobbers, it is a
| rule of the trade to carry a part of at
| least three crops for good and suffl-
cient reasons. AS to what the surplus
is at this time, compared with previous
years, we have not yet been able to
| satisfactorily determine, but are on
the track of the facts, as nearly as
| that may be possible. One Of the larg-
est tobacco handlers In this state in
| formed us that there are 100,000000
pounds of Pennsylvania seed leaf of
the 1916-1917 crops in various hands.
This man is bear" on tobacco, and
1t is much to his interest to buy as
near bottom as possible. He will be
in Ohio in few days and so too, will
be other in his class.
In view of the activity in the cigar
trade in 1915 and IT, and also as to
the total production of Pennsylvania
leaf, one hundred million pounds of
these crops seem to be too large an
estimate Of the amount on hand. En-
tirely too much, emitting the crop of
last year.
If this man is right and that be the
real condition, it is little wonder that
spectators are lying low and watch
ing the 1919 acreage. On top of this,
of course, is the remainder of the
Ohio 1917 crop, in all positions.
York county, as a whole, makes a
world of cigars and at two factories
visited they are still using some 1915
leaf in their blends" and some plants
have used but little of the 1916 growth
as yet, so they tell u.s.
The Usual Condition
But this is not an unusual state of
affairs. In many brands of cigars the
rule is to use three year old, and up
tobacco, not only as to Havana goods,
but in Seed and Havanas.' 1t Is not
a question as to the age Of the leaf
on hand, but as to how great the ex.
cess over normal supply. That, in
deed, is the pith of the whole matter,
as it relates to the outlook for higher
or lower prices in the Ohio field.
For ourself will say: Had we pig
or two in the barrel or smoke house,
and cow which was furnishing milk
and butter, and a lot of hens who
were attending to business we would
take chance on getting fair price
for our 1918 leaf--either in Pennsyl-
vania or Ohio. But the leaf must be
properly handled and stored. first of
all, and must be of marketable quality
for its uses. There is lot of tobacco
in all fields which are not up to stand
ard and on which the price is for the
buyers decision, and rightly so. Penn
sylvania has lot of that kind and
this should make Ohio leaf that much

simply for the information of our
readers. Frankly, these figures show
an accumulation up to January L
1918, but not so heavy as to warrant
the giving of cigar leaf away by any
means. And we state this because,
first of all, we look for a revival in
the cigar industry at an early date

The Red Cross Christmas Seal SALE which

the campaign against tuberculosis. 1t is ma
tional campaign. Every county is organized
against the enemy that kills 10000 persons
each year in the United States. In economic
waste alone this plague costs the United States
approximately $500, 100000 a year, according
to careful statisticians
1t costs Oklahoma many lives and many
dollars. 1t costs Ardmore and Carter county
far more than should be permitted The way
not to permit tuberculosis to levy and collect
this terrible tax in lives and money is to stamp
out tuberculosis.
Red Cross Christmas Seals are sold to get
money to fight tuberculosis. The amount
which Carter county is expected to turn into
this fund through the purchase of the seals is
$4,000. Supt. C. w. Richards Of the Ardmore
public schools, president of the Rotary Club of
Ardmore, is county chairman for the sale. With
ether earnest workers he intends to push this
sale to the limit.

]. S. S. CALIFORNIA,
ELECTRICAL WONDER,
IS LAUNCHED TODAY

san Francisco, Cal. Nov. 20.-The
superdreadnaught California, launched
at Mare Island near here today. is a
Verilabie electric ship Besides SUP
plying her driving power, electricity
is used to hoist the ammunition, rotate
the turrets, operate the IA inch guns,
steer the ship, raise and lower the
anchor, pump fresh and salt water.

mcnts. In the kitchen electricity peels
the potatoes, washes the dishes, makes
the ice cream, grindS the meat, mixes
the dough. cuts the butteraand in many
ways lightens the labors of the sailor
lads.
The chief advantage of electric drive
for a battleshp is fuel economy. Fuel
economy is far more important aboard
ship than ashore, naval officers point
out, for a ship must carry her own
fuel, and the longer the ships fuel
will last, the greater her radius of ac.
ton. The greatest saving occurs at
the usual cruising speed of about Is
knots. AS compared with the battle
ships driven by turbines directly coupled
to the propellers, it is estimated that
the California will save, while crus-
ing about 30 per cent Of her fuel. This
is because both the turbines and the
propellers can rotate at their best and
most economical speed, which, it is
contcnded, is often impossible when
steam is used TO drive the screws.
Energy to operate the great bat
tleship is taken aboard in the form of
crude oil. This is burned under boil
ers that develops the steam power
which IN turn generates electric power.
The noZzles underneath the boilers
are adjusted to mix air with the oil
so that the oil will burn completely

sired to throw a smoke screen, by
