NEW YORK, Dec. /, 1921.
The last week in November showed
satisfactory activity in the Shade grown
type of tobacco. The manufacturers
are said to be very finicky about the
quality, but have now waded in to fill
their needs. Of the domestic market
otherwise the Tobacco Leaf has the
following to say:
Practical stagnation in the domestic
leaf end Of the Water Street market
continues and is accepted by the ma
jority Of leaf merchants with philoso-
phical calm There IS 4 general dispo-
sition to stacd pat on present asking
prices, which leaf merchants point out
already represent drastic concessions to
existing conditions beyond which it
would be impossible to go without ruin
Gus sacrifice. There is good logic, too,
in. their contention that any further
concessions would not only fail to bring
about any increase IN activity, but
might very easily react to prololg the
present passivity The existing leth-
argy of the market is, in short, consid-
cred natural result of conditions in
the cigar industry, which cannot possi-
bly, be improved until there is general
toning up all along the line.

EDGERToN. WIS.,. Dec. 16. 1921

EDGERTON. Wis.,. Dec 16, 1921.
A somewhat more active market for
the 1921 northern developed last week.
Tuesday some of the local men in Vi
roqua and Westby started the hall roll
ing, F. p. Mcintosh, the EckharCts of
Viroqua. and Bekkedal OF Westby were
busy during the week looking for Sc
lect goods; no heavy buying causing
any excitement, but discriminating
hunt for good tobacco. Toward the
last of the week the LoriIlard Co. sent
men in and the movement became some
what more stimulated. The prices how
cred around the Zoe mark, some chang
ing hands at 15c, while few Of the
best touched the 25c line. Other firms
are keeping close watch of develop
ments, and the feeling this week is
that che activity in the 1921 may con-
tinue during the balance of the month
as sure enough start IN an attempt to
select the good end of the crop. There
is not much chance OF a stampede.
Conditions are not that way; neither is
it desirable. A steady pull at prices to
correspond TO the nature of the gooGs,
giving everyone a fair chance until the
1921 in due season is disposed Of, will
materially assist in steadying the
nerves of everybody concerned, and
serve to alleviate the present economic
strain which has been felt also in the
tobacco sections of the state
The 1920 movement out of first hands
continues at its usual pace. The farm
holdings are still large, and the price is
almost rigid between six and eight
cents. While the grower is not lining
his coat with velvet out of this crop,
he knows that the chances of an early
Improvement in the price of this goods
are remote, since the market is already
heavily supplied with B's and low
grades.
The G. E. Sweeney & Son warehouse
in Edgerton began asserting operations
Monday morning this week. They are
handling 1920 tobacco now, employing
between 80 and 40 hands, expecting TO
run until the holidays Whether the
warehouse then will go right on and
assort of the 1921 which the firm has
bought in the northern section is not as
yet determined. The news of the OPEN
ing of the warehouse here in addition
to the large stemming force employed
by the Earle Tobacco company, which
has given work during the past months,
has added to the Christmas cheer.

LANCASTER, PA, Dec. /, 1921

LANCASTER, IA, Dec. /, 1871
Up to the present time there has
been very little activity in the local
tobacco market as far as the 1921 crop
is concerned, the growers, speculative
packers and the cigar manufacturers
being willing to allow matters to go
oyer for some time to come. It is not
regarded as likely that there will be
any big buying until after the holiday
season. There will no doubt be small
nibbles ct the crop row in the course
of stripping, but any purchases made
will be in small minority
The 1920 crop, in its entirity, is rap
idly passing into the hands of the big
cigar manufacturers. During the past
several months Bayuk Bros, Inc, have
secured possession of thousands of cases
and this week saw Otto Eiseniohr &
Bro. finish the purchasing of at least
2600 boxes, says the Tobacco Journal,
and adds that several other big manu-
facturers, among them E. Rosenwald,
have taken 450 cases.
