HARTFORD, CT, Aug. 18, 1921.
Harvesting operations will be con-
cluded next week This week has been
favorable for housing the crop and so
far the cure has been all that could be
desired
The Connecticut tobacco situation
will be included in an investigation of
the whole tobacco situation in the
United States to be made by the Fed
eral Trade Commission on domestic and
export trade, with particular reference
to market prices to producers, the
market price for manufactured tobacco
and the price of leaf tobacco exported.
The round tip tobacco, new type
developed at the New Haven expert
ment station, is proving fine crop and
has already shown at least three val
liable features of superiority. There
are about 800 acres of this variety here
this year, and those who have grown it
declare that they will increase the acre
age of this type next years. A. B.

NEW YORK, Aug. 18, 1921.


Numerically speaking, Water Street
is not suffering from lack of orders,
but when tally is taken of the guam
titles of cigar leaf tobacco which these
orders represent, the total is still dis
appointingly trifing, as compared with
what in normal times would be consid-
cred an average business. This con-
tinued sluggishness of the movement
of leaf stocks is attributed and un-
doubtedly correctly-to a fairly unan-
imous policy of minimum buying which
has been followed by the manufactur-
ers for nearly year, rather than to
actual conditions obtaining in the cigar
manufacturing industry. The only
change which has been noted during
the past few weeks is found in the in
creasing number of firms replenishing
leaf stocks and not in any perceptible
increase in the quantities ordered. So
it continues. and so, leaf merchants be-
lleve. it will continue for an indefinite
period, or until such time as the pro-
cess of gradual, and by no means uni
form, defation brings the cigar leaf
market to level, which will be recog-
nized by leaf merchant and manufac-
turer alike as stable basis by which
TO gauge the transactions of the next
year or more. The 1921 crop is ex-
pected to furnish such basis Leaf.

LANCASTER, Pa, Aug. II, 1921.
The Lancaster leaf dealers take an
optimistic view of the growing crop of
this county, in spite of some things
that might be considered unfavorsbie.
Quite number of packers have been
visiting various parts of the county,
and the concensus of opinion is that the
tobacco is doing nicely, except in spots
where there was not much rain
When the new crop will be sold is q
question for the future, but local pack
ers say they feel assured it will not be
bought on the field this year. because
business conditions are different from
what they were when the crop was
bought on the field. The last buying
of this sort was in 1917, and only part
of the crop was then bought up. The
writer has had no opportunity of learn
ing what the big outside firms propose
doing in securing what they want of
this crop, but anybody familiar with
the county's business affairs would have
cause for wonder if these concerns
started buying in the field. -Slade in

EDGERToN. Wis. Sept 2, 1921.
The harvest of the tobacco crop is
going forward under ideal weather con-
ditions. Help seems to be ample, and
the wages of harvest hands about one
half of the prices paid year ago.
Many growers are taking advantage of
the favors of the season and pulling
through the harvest with their own
help. The heat, while favorable to the
growing and maturing leaf, has been
trying to people working in field and
shed. The plants are large and heavy,
and the handling of the filled lath in the
shed is no child's play. Pretty nearly
one-half of the crop will be housed be-
fore the end of the week if the weather
continues favorable. A few on Albion
Prairie have finished, others will finish
before the end of the week. The Sec
ond half of the crop is coming along
fast, though it will be pretty close to
the end of September before the she'd
ding is completed.
In another place in this issue letter
from the weather bureau is printed.
The warning contained in it against
cutting tobacco unripe is timely, and
with the present arrangement of frost
warning stations most everybody can
have information of an approaching
frost wave, even if the news of it's
coming cannot be forecast, as the bu-
reau declares, more than "a hours be-
fore it's arrival.
No news of buying having opened
has come from any section of the state,
and no one is at Chis time making any
predictions or giving out any advance
information as to the time when the
merchants will launch lifting move
ment. The crop is binder crop of
considerable size, some say one of the
most sizeable in point of binder leaf
grown in many year, and damage
from he'll, wind and other causes COM
paratively light.
Shipments from % to 20 of August,
only cars cases and cars bundles.
