OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1919-10-17
New England.

HARTFORD, IT., Oct. /, 1919.
The season for handling the tobacco
in the warehouses is at hand. From
now on the warehouses throughout the
state will be busy places where the
workers will be busily engaged sorting
and picking over the tobacco for its
long process of curing during the next
six months or So Warehouse work
commenced in earnest Monday.
Former tobacco sorters are wanted
by the warehouse owners. Experience
counts for much in. this line as in any
other branch of industry. Wages are
expected to be around S5 day. This
is on piece work. Hundreds of women
and girls are employed in the ware
houses.
A conser yative estimate of the land
sown to tobacco in the Connecticut val
ley is 4, 500 acres of Shadegrown, Z, SOC
Broadleaf, 22,5O0 of Havana Seed. 1t
is estimated that the total value of the
Connecticut tobacco crop is $21, 900, 600.

LANCASTER, Pa, Oct. /, 1919
Another streak Of warm weather last
week encouraged local growers to take
another risk on backward tobacco and
refrain from cutting. The early plant
ed crops are in the shed, but there are
goodly number of acres still uncut,
probably not less than 20 per cent of
the crop. The uncut acreage is not
only of hail-cut crops, but of backward
crops that had not been touched by the
hail, which was far from fit for har-
vesting. If the weather continues half
way decent, the tobacco will be left
uncut for some time yet.
The 1919 crop will depend for prices
as much on the market as last years
crop, and the market will depend alto
gether on the condition of the cigar
trade. The strikes have tied up an i'm
mense amount Of tobacco that would
otherwise have gone into cigars, there
by making room for newer tobaccos. A
speedy settlement of the strikes would
mean the manufacturing of cigars to
the limit, for it would enable manufac-
turers to do what they have been un-
able SO far to do, take orders for the
Christmas holiday trade.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1919-10-17
NEW YORK, Sept. 20, 1919.

Interest, during the Forthcoming
week, will center largely upon offer
ings of the 1913 Wisconsin, sampling OF
which is now practically completed and
which will be ready for inspection with
in the next few days. In view of the
fact, however, that the majority OF
Water Street packers of Wisconsin to-
bacco have already disposed of large
percentage of their holdings of 1915
Wisconsin binders, there are unmis-
taxable indications that such tobacco
as is available for the open market will
be quickly disposed of.
notwithstanding the fact that there
has been no relief from the strike tie
up which has so long suspended man
.ufacturing activities, particularly in
Greater New York, Water Street pack
ers report continued active demand
for all types of desirable cigar leaf.
Not overlooking the fact that suspen-
sion of manufacturing activities has
undoubtedly resulted in correspond
ing accumulation of leaf supplies, man
ufacturers are undoubtedly actuated IN
their continued purchases of domestic
leaf by the realization that when ex-
listing labor troubles are eventually set
tied, every factory in the country will
be pushed to the limit of capacity to
meet the overwhelming demand for
cigars.
1t is also probable that manufacture
ers, considering the problematical OUT
look for much of the 1919 crop of do
mestic leaf are anxious to fortify them
selves with as much of the 1918 tobac-
co as their resources will permit. -

Wisconsin Tobacco Market
EDGERToN, Wis. Oct. II, 1919.


While there was light frost in this
section couple of nights last week,
it was not severe enough TO in any way
endanger the tobacco now curing in the
sheds The curing weather has con-
tinued favorable, and the late leaf is
coming out in good color, considering
the lateness of the season. The muggy
weather previous to last week could
not harm the early tobacco which had
cured out, and the latest was too green
at that time to be effected. The me-
gdium cutting, where the sheds were
not closely watched, show traces here
and there of the effects of too much
moisture, though no reports of serious
damage have been received.
The packings of the Farmers Coop
erative Warehouse are nov being sam
pied. The lots sampled so far are
showing up well, and indicated that
the tobacco has come through the pro-
cess of fermentation in good shape.
No sales of their holdings have been
reported of late.
The last days of last week were the
first to show indications of movement
in the 1919 crop. Reports have reached
us that a few contracts were then
written in Trempealeau county. Wheth-
er this means that general movement
to lift the 1919 crop is already under
way, or, that the deals reported are in
the nature of probing the feeling of the
market, can not be stated positively
just now. 1t is too early to predict
what the ruling prices will be. Of the
tobacco bought in the northern section
the price lowered around the Is cent
mark. Arthur X, Lien on the Hage-
stad farm at Beaver Creek reports
that he sold his acres to Mr.. Bekkedal
of Westby at 30&8c, the only sale re-
ported at that figure.

sale of 500cs of1918

As these figures were obtained by
the assessors in May, and represent
the number of acres contemplated
being planted at that time, they may
not be absolutely accurate, as some
localities have planted more and others
less than intended when the assessor
secured the estimated number of acres.
Yet these are the only figures obtain
able, as an official report of the actual
number of acres planted is not made
for the county.

NOTE eook SKETCHES

q
If the press of the country reflects
the condition of the public pulse, the
program and the methods of the indus
trial agitators and their followers are
no longer popular with the public as q
whole. The extremists who have as
sumed the leadership in the strike up
heaval are not trusted and liked. They
represent to large extent the foreign
red element, whose principles are
syndica6stic and internationalistic, not
American. Their code of ethics and
their idea of citizenship are not tpe
same as those held by the native Amer
ican Industrial member of the labor
fraternity. The evidences of this have
gradually sunk into the consciousness
of the. average American during the
present strike, and he is not pleased
with the situation These conditions
are also affecting the labor organiza-
tions themselves. The native workers
who are best paid and who live under
normal American standards chafe under
the pressure exercised by the foreign
element, and dislike to be stampeded
into situation that their common
sense tells them is impossible and, in
the long run, inimical to American in
dustrial life. This has caused cleav-
age in the ranks of labor which weak
ems the power of their ranks. MIR.
Gompers and other. leaders of legit-
innate union efforts are 100 per cent
Americans and have no thought of up
setting American institutions and en-
dangering the industrial equilibrium.
To them the new radicalism is distaste-
ful. and their support in the present
strike has been anything but whole
souled and enthusiastic. "The-public-
be-damned" spirit has rubbed, not only
the American public, but also the con-
servative wing of American labor, the
wrong way. For this situation the
radicals have no one to blame but
themselves. The average American
man and woman are normally on the
side of labor in their sympathies; if
public sentiment is one of disapproyal
today. it is due TO no change of heart.
on the part vi the public, but to false
and un-American methods pursued by
the radicals in the labor world. These
general observations apply also to the
strike situation in the tobacco INDUS
try. In New York, Boston, Philadel-
phia and other tobacco and cigar man
ufacturing centers the popularity of
the strike is on the decline. In some
cases the strike has been settled on a
compromise basis. Where no under
standing has been effected, the strik-
ing men are realizing that public opin-
ion is no longer back of them to sup
port TEEN, and they would go back if
they were not intimidated by the
reds. Report comes from New York
that many of the idle men are leaving
the city to seek employment elsewhere.
Meanwhile the Industrial Commission
is graphing with the problem for the
purpose of settling present difficulties
and preventing new ones, and it is the
hope of all that their efforts may be
crowned with success.

Rock county raised $685. 5-12 acres of

acreage was distributed over the town
