LANCASTER, PA, Nov. 18, 1920.
In discussing the situation for the
week, the u. S. Tobacco Journal has
the following to say: Both the pack
ers and the growers Of Lancaster
county field are marking time ard
within the past week not single sale
has been made. That the packers pro-
pose to lay off for some time to come
has been proven by the visits to other
fields taken by prominent figures in
packing circles and before leaving they
expressed the intention Of doing moth
ing in the local field until about the
Christmas season. It has been openly
stated that some of the biggest houses
have made small purchases of 1920 leaf
for the purpose of curing in order to
get results, which, if proved satisfac-
tory, will lead to big purchases Tie
tobacco in the sheds Is curing nicely
and tests made OF the early cut ard
cured show burning quality 1t is con-
fidently expected that there will be 30
decided buying break for a month or
more to come.

NEW YORK, Nov. 18, 1922

In contrast with the general tone of
pessimism prevailing in most of the in
dustries. the tobacco industry, as it is
reflected through it's spokesmen in the
tobacco press, continues TO sound a
tone of optimism. In a review of the
situation the Tobacco Leaf quotes a
packer to the following effect:
There is legitimate shortage of
every type of domestic cigar leaf to-
bacco and of both domestic and i'm
ported wrapper types available for use
in 1921 and the position OF the holders
of these tobaccos is unquestionably
safe, from the packers standpoint.
The best indication of the truth of this
assertion is shown in the fact that
while there are comparatively few
sales of consequence just now, it is
equally certain that very little. tobacco
can be bought. Both packers and man.
ufscturers have already anticipated a
smaller tobacco consumption and have
trimmed sails accordingly. No tobacco
has been bought and no prices have
been paid for the 1920 crop, with some
notable exceptions, which the trend in
conditions does not justify. Therefore,
/ repeat, the cigar leaf industry, gen
orally speaking at least, is in very
well fortified position to stand what
ever strain may be put upon its re
sources +"
At the same time, no one in Water
Street is overlooking the apparently
obvious signs of gradual trend to-
ward more normal leaf prices which
will eventually re-establish the leaf in
dustry upon a far more solid and salts
factory footing than has been possible
under the boom conditions Of the wa!
period

The farmers are stripping the 1920
crop OF tobacco. Just what portion of
the entire crop has been removed from
the poles we can not say, but the re-
ports coming in indicate that the great
er share of it is down. The leaf was
in good case generally. The portion of
the leaf affected by the drought during
the growing season does not lease"
readily, but the weather for putting
the tobacco into proper case has left
nothing to be desired. The Vernon
County Censor of last week says: "a
blanket of thick, heavy fog descended
upon this section of the state Saturday
and Sunday, accompanied with rain and
snow. It impregnated hanging crops
of the weed with the proper degree of
moisture, and taking down of tobacco
was general throughout the county" !"
1t adds that December first will see
the local warehouses getting under
way" Our representative at Westby
says: 1--WE have had one of the best
casing spells of the season. Practically
all of the crop is removed from the
poles in the northern section. Some
firms will be receiving tobacco this
week. Everything is quiet as far as
buying is concerned"
Firms having old binders of the right
sort have no worry about market for
them. We understand that Sam
Grundy and T. E. Welsh of GAINESVILLE
have each disposed of their binders,
about 800 cases. The shorts and low
grades are not wanted just now. AS
to any market for the unsold 1920 crop,
nothing has developed to change condi-
tions for the better since our last re-
port Any general activity in the sort
ing centers of the southern section of
the state until the beginning of the
year is not likely, though some firms
may make start during this month.
Mr.. George Gary of Madison is under
stood to have given the word to the
warehouses directed by him in the state
to be ready to begin receiving tobacco
this week.

DAYTON, o., Nov. Is, 1920.
There are only very few packings of
Zimmer and Gebhardt of the 1918 and
1919 tobacco not in the hands Of the
manufacturer. This condition is known
by the growers, and they will not sell
their 1920 for Is cents, but are holding
firm at 20 cents, though little Dutch
has been sold for Is and 16 cents. The
acreage this year was short. The to-
bacco is good and has cured under ideal
conditions. If the packers must go
above 10 cents, they are going TO wait
until stripping is done, and then select
and pay according to quality. This is
the situation in Ohio today.
