At this late day a survey of the
situation forecasts a large Republi-
can vote in the primary to be held
tomorrow, yet all indications point to
a quiet and orderly election, as is the
general rule in this good County Of
Ohio. All of the candidates have
made a thorough campaign. The
voters ought to be fairly we'll able to
say as to whom they desire upon their
ticket, as the measure Of each candi-
date has been taken by the larger
portion of Republicans of the Coun-
ty. The campaign qualifications and
ability of a candidate to secure for
himself votes sufficient to land
nomination is most generally evidence
of the fact that he is the strongest
candidate, and, therefore, presumed
to be the choice of the pople, and as
a consequence enabled to make a
stronger race in the final election.
Don't fail to go to the primary and
vote for the candidate of your choice,
the man best qualified and capable of
serving all whose officer he is to be,
if elected. When you have done this
you have performed a service, not
only for yourself but to the County
as well. Nothing short of such SER
vice, if reasonably convenient, is a
fair complicahce with the duties i'm
posed upon us as citizens of the
community, in which We reside.
Vote, and If you fail in your selection,
then fall-in with the majority.

The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1921-08-19

The question of storage Of surplus
farm products is very much alive in the
minds of the farmers. The strongest
agitation recently has been in favor of
cooperative storage plants at central
points of shipping. While this undoubt-
edly is working out to help the produc-
ers hold their goods until the most fav-
orable time to sell, the farm storage
should not be forgotten. Buildings to
store for period grain, tobacco and
other products which can be handled
without refrigerator facilities will pay
for themselves. Now that building
material and labor are coming down in
price, the farmers will do well TO equip
themselves for farm storage, which in
the case of tobacco and grain may be
the most economical in this section of
the country. The silo has proven the
greatest economical asset as a feed
saver to every farm.

LANCASTER, Pa, Aug. 8, 1921

Unless Lancaster county's 1921 to-
bacco crop is bought or the field, which
is hardly likely, then the buying season
is some months off, but | make the
prediction that this crop will be harder
to buy than that of 1920.
Now that the original packings are
being taken up by the big firms, we
are beginning TO hear the taunt, Il
told you so, = from the people who had
advised the growers to hold back their
tobacco The interest the growers
have in the reports of all this buying
of the 1920 tobacco lies in the effect it
will have upon the prices of toDacco
now in the field. And beyond doubt
the feeling that they could have gotten
more for their 1920 crop if they had re-
fused to sell when they did, will tend
to make them hold out stubbornly for
better prices than they received for
their 1920 tobacco Indeed they are
already being coached along these lines
They will certainly demand stiff prices
for the 1921, especiallyif the local deal
ers get rid of all their 1920 before the
buying of the new crop begins. The
fact is being pushed home, too, that
better prices can be secured if better
tobacco is produced, and this point
those interested in buying the new crop
will readily concede. The growers have
been advised year after year by the
packers to raise the standard of the
crop, and not sacrifice the quality to
mere quantity.

HARTFORD, CT, Aug. 4, 1921.
The epidemic of hail and wind storms
which has wrought considerable havoc
in the Connecticut Valley, continues to
occupy the attention of the large part
of the leaf trade and manufacturers in
terested in the leaf supply from that
quarter. The damage from this cause
has been augmented during the past
week by two additional visitations.
which according to sketchy estimates
brings the total loss in dollars to ap-
proximately $2,000,000. 1t is reported
that about 25 per cent of this loss is
charged against the Shadegrown crop,
and the heaviest damage against the
Sungrown. The harvest of Shade
grown is well advanced into the second
printing The average quality of the
undamaged portion of the crop. both
Shade and Sungrown, rs reported as
excellent, says the Leaf.
But the u. S. Tobacco Journal says:
Although newspaper reports consider
ably overestimated the amount of the
losses involved, they were undoubtedly
large. The burden of the losses is
borne by the insurance companies,
however. as most of the crop is heavily
protected against wind and hail by in
surance policies.
