The Connecticut Valley is getting
some good tobacco weather for the first
time this season. There is much ac-
tivity in the growing centers and out
side operations are now in full swing.
Some of the new crop has already been
put into the ground and within the next
fortnight large part of the crop will
have been set out. The labor problem
is still serious matter, not because of
any scarcity, but because of the enor-
nous price the grower has to pay, and
this may be decided factor in deter
mining the price of the new product.
The Shadegrown producers will be in
the midst of transplanting in less than
three days from this date. The pre-
liminaries are complete, aside from the
completion of stretching the cloth used
in covering. It is generally predicted,
because of the lateness of spring, that
the season will be an excellent growing
one.
Warehouse operations are now a
thing of the past for this season. All
have rounded out fairly successful
packing season, and work will now be
limited to sweating the crops from time
to time. The American Sumatra To-
bacco Co. is the last to conclude opera
tions. 1t is still working on the Broad
leaf crop at the Huntington warehouse
in East Hartford, but is practically
through with the new crops of Shade
grown and primed Havana Sungrown
The labor situation, cost of manure,
commercial fertilizer, cotton seed meal,
cloth and other essentials to produce a
crop of tobacco may cause greater cur
tailment of acreage than early esti-
mates indicated. While the concern
does not want to be quoted, the Tobac-
co Leafs correspondent learns that a
good slice of land owned by large
producer of Shade, is to be used this
year for the growing of potatoes. This
is an emergency case, however, and is
but temporary venture.

In discussing the coming crop, the
belief is very generally expressed that
like the 1919 it will find ready buyers,
because there is not great deal of old
goods in the market. The big cigar
concerns have large stocks of leaf in
reserve, but this tobacco is not for the
open market until it appears in the
form of smokes. The growers are not
the only persons who believe that good
prices will again prevail this year, for
packers have told the writer that they
do not look for cheap 1920 crop. At
last weeks May meeting of the Lam
caster County Tobacco Growers asso-
citation, contradictory reports were re-
ceived from various parts of the county
concerning the condition of the plants
in the seed beds, but it was generally
conceded that the plants are smaller
than they should be, because of adverse
weather conditions. If the reports
really reflect conditions. then therelwill
be small decrease in acreage, mostly
due to labor shortage. The tendency
of farmers sons to come to town for
jobs, rather than do hard farm work,
is rapidly drawing labor from the farm.
The favorite variety of tobacco seed
planted this season is for a heavy bear
er and it is believed that the production
will be kept up to the standard through
this variety.
The 1919 packings continue to change
hands, the largest sale having been

Wisconsin Tobacco Market
EDGERToN, Wis. June 4, 1926

The first week in June finds the
plant beds in as nice condition as could
be wished for, -and as an Albion Prairie
farmer puts it, they are free from all
symptoms of rot and minus the pesky
flea, which in some years has caused
trouble galore. The beds in some To-
calities are being forced by letting the
canvas remain, and there is good pros
pect that setting will start within the
next ten days. The help problem will
necessarily retard the planting to some
extent, but for all that fair acreage
will be put out.
In old goods transactions are few but
we note the sale of 65 cases of 1918 by
John Paul of Milton Junction.

The warehousemen and leaf dealers
in the bright tobacco growing regions
of Virginia and North Carolina are
uniting in propaganda to growers of
the weed. urging them not to attempt
larger crops than last year. They warn
the farmer that he cannot expect the
high prices for this years crop that his
bright leaf brought last year and big
crop this year would cause such drop
in value as to deprive the grower of
any profit at ALL The cigarette and
smoking tobacco manufacturers are not
joining the leaf men in spreading this
propaganda.

COTTON MARKET.

New York. Sept. 27.-Trading in
cotton was dull today and the mar
ket sold off after having been
stronger in the forenoon.
At first prices here advanced to
II points. The market at New Or
leans was even stronger, moving up
about 25 points on reports that the
storm was due to reah the Gulf
Coast tomorrow. The early advance
carried the market about 40 to 65
points above last nights close. Ex-
cept for some bullisn comment on
general business conditions through
out the country there appeared to
be no special incentive to buy and
demand failed to broaden. This left
the market more sensitive to realiz-
ing sales.
A mid morning reaction carried
quotations off about SO points from
the best, but this was checked by an
unfavorable forecast for the Eastern
belt and prices rallied.
Late in the day the undertone of
the market was steady, but near the
close a report that the barometer
at Galveston was rising caused in
creased offerings and the list finally
was easy at a net decline of points
to an advance of 5 points on active
positions

GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago Sept. 21.-Renewed liqul-
dation caused a break in corn fu-
lures today that induced a selling
wave in wheat. As prices for the
latter dropped, they ran into stop
loss selling which caused a slump
extending to SIz cents and resulted
in further weakness in corn and
oats. Extreme declines in corn
reached 3lH cents and in oats *.
September corn held relatively
steady under evening up, in view of
the small local stocks available with
the last delivery day drawing near.
Continued ideal weather for matur-
ing the crop induced heavy selling
of the deferred deliveries through
! leading commission houses from the
start and sent them to new low
marks on the crop. Spot prices
weakened under light demand, get
ting their chief support from ele-
vator houses.
Weakness in corn induced wide
spread selling of oats in the face of
the greatest lack of support in some
time. September led the decline, but
the deferred months caught up be-
fore the close, longs firing of the
steady decline recently. Some COW
ering was in evidence on the dips,
but all swells met increased offer
ings. Buying against bids was the
principal factor in steadying the
market.

MONEY.

New York. Sept. 2I.-Time money
market thin. The time money
market today was extremely thin
s to SA per cent being the ruling
rate for all maturities. Money
brokers stated that there was prac-
tically nothing doing in the market,
and expressed the opinion that-ff an
amount of say $500, 900 should come
in the market to be put out on time
the rate would Immediately drop to
level lower than the prevailing
quotation.
On the other hand. IL a large
amount should be asked for the
quotation might easily advance sub
stantially. The genral feeling is
that money will work easier.
Yesterday there were a few small
loans made for 80 and so days at s
per cent. This does not represent
the true situation. Acceptance bills
were extremely quiet, with very lit
tie being done.
Call money ruled per cent.
