MONROE TOBACCO
GROWERS DECIDE
TO HOLD CROP
Sales of Leaf Thus Far Have
Exhausted Supplies Offered
to Buyers.
BY WILLIAM r. sANeoRN.

There are signs that the buyers who
have been fortunate enough to have
picked up little tobacco in Monroe
township in Preble county, have
cleaned up all that was pressing for
sale. True, there are a few more de-
liveries of small crops to be made
Thursday, June IL. as we are reliably
informed, but the number of cases to
come in will not be large.
The sales and deliveries made dur
ing this week at Eldorado, Ohio, to-
tailed 342 cases of the 1918 crop. Some
deliveries were said to have been
scheduled for today, but so far as we
can learn, no tobacco was brought in.
Charles Slusher, buyer for Harry
o'Neill, of Dayton secured forty cases
OF Broad Leaf on Friday, It's said. and
paid 1917 cents for it. Pierce and
| Morris, buyers for the Lewis New
bergh company at Hamilton, O., are
still looking around These gentle,
men have bought most of the tobacco
so far sold in the Eldorado vicinity.
Reports are current that buyers are
pretty widely scattered over the Mi
ami Valley, and this is no doubt true;
many of them directly or indirectly
representing the big cigar manufact
uring interests interests of the east
Eastern buyers have been in this sec
ton for some time, or have visited
the leaf districts and returned tc
awaid a more convenient opportunity
to buy Mention was made weeks age
in the Palladium of the arrival Of foul
of these from Lancaster and York, Pa.
! Representatives Of leaf jobbers and
cigar manufacturers at more eastern
points.
Meeting Of Tobacco Growers.
The members of the Miami Valley
| Tobacco Growers association residing
| in Monroe township held a large and
enthusiastic meeting at the Centraliz-
| ed school building on June 5. Several
addresses we're made and it was unan,
| imously voted to hold tobacco for bet
ter prices. The sentiment of the meet
! ing was that these better prices are
