CHAPTER XXxIII


The next morning when Puss Junior
awoke he was surprised to find himself
in the woodcutter's cottage, for you re-
member in the last story he had fallen
asleep and had never walked up, even
when the kind woodcutter's wife put
him to bed
Well, after breakfast, he took out his
purse and gave her a gold piece. Keep
it for baby he said, with grin, as
he jumped into the saddle and said gid
ap to his faithful gray horse. Then on
he rode for many miles until he came to
a deep river. There was no bridge any
where in sight, and he was just about
to turn away and seek another road
when he heard a voice say:
whistle three times, Sir Cal, and the
ferryboat that goes to Toy Town will
take you over" So Puss did as he
was told and presently ferryboat came
up close to the bank and then Puss
urged his Good Gray Horse over the
gangplank which the sailors put out,
and soon he was aboard and out in the
middle of the stream.
Pretty soon the Captain came down
from the pilot house and began to talk,
and he told Puss that Toy Town was
a lovely place, where all the dolls could
talk and the railroad cars would run
without winding and the tops spin them
selves.

our little traveller, 'for I've never been
to town where there are such queer
people, except, perhaps, Alphabet Town,
where the letters are all alive and you
have to be an artist to write 4 letter.
And Puss laughed and told the Cap

as the Captain had never been there.
he was very much interested, and said
some day when ne grew rich enough he'd
sell his ferryboat and go travelling.
Well, pretty soon the boat reached the
other side, and Puss guided his Good
Gray Horse over the gangplank and rode
away, after paying the Captain two pen

And after he had ridden for many
miles he came to a castle where lived a
giant. Now this giant was a very kind
sort OF big man and liked little people,
and when he saw Puss astride his Good
Gray Horse, he laughed long and loud
and said in voice that sounded like a
thunder clap: "Ho, there, my little
friend in red top boots! Where are you
going? Stop and make me visit"
Maybe I'm afraid" said little Puss.

laughed, and this time he laughed very

Wisconsin Tobacco Market
EDGERToN. Wis. Dec. "a, 1920

EDGERTON, Wis. Dec "a, 1920
Some buyers are riding in the south
ern section looking at the tobacco now
stripped and in the bundle. There is
no general buying, but for the better
crops they are making offers around 20
cents. One buyer who seems to ex-
press the general opinion among those
who are interested in the unsold 1920,
said that the desire on the part of the
packers is to pay all that the conditions
will merit. They would like to satisfy
the grower with the best price the
market will stand, but so far the big
centers of the tobabco trade have as
sumed an attitude of lack of interest,
and there is no one who cares or dares
to take chances, especially at time
like the present when conditions in the
trade world in general are so unsettled.
The buying will be done on more con-
servative basis all along than for some
years past. Everybody is watching his
step, and nobody is willing to take any
long chances. This cautiousness on the
part of the tobacco business is in line
with the depression existing through
out the business world. The consumer
is not SO free with his earnings, be-
cause his earning power is less than a
year ago, and it is not on the increase.
An adjustment between these forces is
gradually taking place, but while it is
on. everybody is more or less upset. It
is well for all concerned to realize this,
and apply it in ones personal attitude
toward local conditions. The grower
who is so situated with help and place
that he can handle. his own crop this
season, if he does not get an offer that
satifes him, might stand good chance
of earning his wages, especially if he
can handle the sale of his packing to-
gether with others who are similarly
situated. Those who have raised a
crop of tobacco which on it's merit, as
market conditions are today, will bring
the prices now being offered, may find
it safe to sell. There is at least one
satisfaction in the sales that are being
made now, and that is that the buyer
knows what he is buying, and the
grower who has handled his crop right
has the satisfaction of being able to
deliver what the buyer has bought.

New York
New YORK, Dec. 9, 1926

NEW L Ohh, DEC. y, 1JEV.
Despite the fact that there has been
no quickining in the sluggish movement
which has characterized the Water
Street market for some time past, the
general tone of the market remains
firm in all its phases. The confidence
which is expressed in the future of the
market, for all types of desirable to-
baccos, is founded upon the apparently
solid premise that there is no surplus of
tobaccos available for use during the
next twelve months beyond the normal
requirements of the industry.
The prices of all desirable wrapper
tobaccos, both imported and domestic,
have been pretty firmly established,
and the probability of any material re.
cession in the prices of these tobaccos
seems rather remote. The same gen.
eral statement would seem to apply
with equal force to binders. The ex-
tremely small percentage of binder
grades in the southern Wisconsin crop,
the fact that so large percentage OF
the Northern crop was purchased By
the large manufacturers, and the dis
couraging outlook for anything ap.
preaching the expected yield of binder
grades in the new Pennsylvania crop
would seem to definitely preclude the
hope of any material relief from the
existing binder shortage.
