The extremely active demand for the
new Sunatra, reported by importing
houses, constitutes about the only ele-
ment of special interest in the Water
Street market this week, says the To-
bacco Leaf. The high prices haye been
no bar to the trade, and the manufac-
turers have had the satisfaction of get
ting an assortment of leaf that will
meet the varied tastes and needs.
The purchase by American importers
of approximately 300 bales of the 1919
Sumatra at Fridays Amsterdam in
scription, for which the record prices
of the year were paid, brings the total
purchases of the 1919 tobacco destined
for American consumption to approx
mately $4,000 bales. In addition to this
about 1000 bales Of 1918 tobacco have
been bought, up to the present time,
bringing the grand total to about 33, 900
bales. It is considered doubtful if this
total will be materially increased by
whatever purchases may be made at
the inscriptions scheduled for Septem-
Der 10 and "a, although both sales will
contain some quantities of American
type wrappers The Java inscription,
scheduled for September II, will be
awaited with much interest, ESPECIALLY
in view of well established scarcity Of
this commodity. Announcement was
made in the Tobacco Leaf last week Of
the purchase by American importers of
approximately 5000 bales of the new
Java, which so far as is known, consti-
tutes the bulk of American type wrap
pers available for this market. 1t is
considered probable, therefore, that
the quantity of the new leaf suited to
this market, which will be offered at
the September inscription, will be very
limited
The domestic cigar leaf market has
developed nothing Of special interest
outside the rather pronounced activity
in Connecticut Havana Seed, lights and
darks. The new Broadleaf will come
into the market in considerable quanti-
ties within the next week or so, but so
much of this type has been already con-
tracted for that the market interest in
this commodity will naturally be short
lived.

NOTE BOOK SKETCHES

The latest available government fore
cast covering the probable production.
of tobacco in the U. S. in the season of
1920 indicates that it will be abont
48, 600, 900 pounds larger than the 1919
production. The total yield is put at
Il billion pounds North Carolina comes
first on the list in point of acreage,
Kentucky ranks second. Virginia third.
The report for Wisconsin is $4,000
acres with a forecast of So, 400, 600
pounds, as compared with nearly 61,-
GOO, 900 last year. That the figures for
Wisconsin are too low IN acreage, is
quite certain; as to the yield. it is too
early to say. Yhe present condition
July l, as compared with the average
percentage for the last ten-year period,
is given as follows by the U. S. gov
ernment crop report service:

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, July 26, 1920.
Greater uncertainty has seldom been
known in the Connecticut Valley at this
date. There has been much good to-
bacco weather in the last two weeks
and the crop has made wonderful re-
sponse, in parts of the Valley. There
has also been rain in greater quantities
than needed. The New England crop
has likewise experienced touch of hail
in both the Connecticut and Housatonic
Valleys and the damage from this cause
is likely 20 be rather greater than esti-
mates now current.
Printing of the Shadegrown crop is
expected to begin on small scale this
week. Little, if any, Sungrown toboc-
co will be harvested before the second
week in August
The effort to make the new crop ap-
pear better than it is amounts practic-
ally to propaganda No matter how
favorable the weather may be from
now until the middle of September,
thousands of acres of the new crop will
be lightweight yield and, generally
speaking, lightweight yield is not the
best possible tobacco. Your correspon-
dent will be greatly surprised if better
than rs per cent crop is actually har-
vested. The only chance of reaching
this figure depends upon late-set crops.
Early-set crops, with few exceptions,
bear indelible evidences of the seasons

EDGEhTON, Wis, aug. Id, lSZU.
The following wire, dated Westby,
Wis, has beef received by The Re-
porter: ''The drought was broken by
a good rain here late Wednesday (Aug.
D. Tobacco has improved wonder
fully. A hail storm last Friday dam
aged one thousand acres in this section.
Buying has started in small way in
Trempealeau county at 80 cents.
The Censor of Viroqua says: Late
tobacco will reap tremendous value
from the rain, but the early weed has
advanced too far to do much spreading
out now, and will be very light.
In the southern section only light
sprinkle came week ago last Wednes-
day; Friday scattered showers did some
good, but the best rains came last Sun
day. There has been no general rains
in this section, and while the local
showers are doing wonders of good to
tobacco, more is needed in order to
bring satisfactory results. "A light
sprinkle of hail to the east of Edgerton
a week ago did very little damage.
Albion Prairie has had no hail, nor the
GAINESVILLE section, but some hail fell
south and west of Deerfield last Sum-
day; reports indicate that the damage
to tobacco was not serious. Under the
spur of the moisture and the warmer
nights now prevailing, all tobacco is
undergoing rapid development. The
topped fields show improvement
in spread of leaf, though, as a
general thing, the earlier tobacco may
be lighter than the later paintings.
The buying movement started in Trem-
pealeau county week ago Wednesday,
mentioned in the wire printed above,
carries no significance of important ma
ture., In week or ten days, after the
tobacco fields have had a chance to
prove the results of the rains, and the
growing conditions generally, there
may develop activities, of which, as
yet, there are no reliable signs.

Some weeks ago the government is
sued statement that owing to the de-
vastations of the war the tobacco pro-
ducing area of Turkey and Asia Minor
had been greatly reduced, in fact cut
down to less than fifty per cent in all
sections, and in some reduced to as low
as twenty five per cent of what it was
in 1913, and that owing to the continued
disturbed conditions over there the
prospect is, that q still greater reduc-
tion in the tobacco area will result
This statement was printed in the u.
S. Tobacco Journal The correspond
ent of the Journal made inquiry at the
Department of Agriculture, as to the
possibilities of producing in this coun-
try tobacco equal to the distinctive
qualities of that produced in Macedonia
and Asia Minor. In reply the govern
ment answers that it would not be ad-
visable TO experiment with culture of
Turkish tobacco in this country, at
least not until a thorough study has
been made of soil and climatic condi-
tions, both in the foreign sections where
this tobacco is grown and in this coun-
try.
The Market Division has just issued
bulletin dealing with a system of ac-
counts for cooperative shipping of live
stock. The system described is the re-
suit of Investigations made by this of
flee in connection with several live
stock shipping associations in various
parts of the state. The bulletin is free
and can be had by writing to the Di-
vision of Markets. A field representa-
tive of the division will give personal
assistance in the installation of the sys-
tenn wherever requested.
In 1916 Wisconsin spent $3.50, 912 for
the conservation of fish, game, parks
and forests, but only about one-fourth
as much for means of improving the
health of the people of the state. In
1918 Wisconsin spent only one cent per
person for this purpose, says Miss
Gladys Stillman Of the u. w. home
economics department. In one-third
of the state there is no visiting nurse.
The Wisconsin Department Of Agri-
culture, cooperating with the United
States Bureau of Animal Industry in
the accredited herd project, during the
month of June tested 1877 herds con-
taining 1889 cattle. Wisconsin again
leads the United States for the month
of June in the increase in the number
of federal-state tuberculosis free ac-
credited herds with gain of 90 accred-
tied herds This places Wisconsin at
the end of the fiscal year, June 80, 1920,
with 1861 herds under federal-state
supervision, of which 26S are tubercu-
losis free accredited herds; 773 addi-
tional herds have been once tested
without reactors; 320 herds revealed

The new town car, q chauffeur

Miiburn quick exchange battery

US refer to the number of cylinders

Cylinder numbers make no more

A mistake frequently made, espe-

Just the brakes so tightly that they
slide the wheels when applied. OF
course, this stops the car quickly,
