EDGERToN, WIS.,. Sept. %, 1922.
The rains freshened ripe tobacco. To
growing tobacco it gave push and it
has hastened development in spite of
the cold nights and chilly days. Late
tobacco would have chance of .splen-
did growth if warm weather would
come and make proper use of the
moisture now present in the ground.
The harvest is. going on, many are
through, but considerable acreage is
still standing in the fields. Fortunately
frosts have held off, and rising temper
atures during the present week may
quicken belated fields.
Inquiry for cased tobacco continues,
though no large deals have been re-
ported; in fact any large deals in fancy
binders can not be looked for as no
large amounts of that type of leaf re-
main in the hands of local independent
packers. The firms who have any con-
siderable quantity of that sort of leaf
are rejoicing at the upward turn in the
market and see the possibility of recov
ering some of the prospective losses
that they feared due to the exception
ally high prices they paid the growers.
The 1921 crop now sampled shows
many attractive characteristics, and
not few packers are sorry that the
amount of binders available in that
crop is so limited.
The early 1922 is curing well where
the sheds were taken care4ef during
the hot weather. The color is light,
and on the whole this tobacco is curing
out. thin. This is true also of the
southern grown. That it will weigh
light to the acre is evident
Buying continues in the northern
counties with prices pretty we'll estab-
lished. No movement has as yet start
ed in the southern section, but as soon
as the leaf has cured out and the
weather becomes such as to permit ex-
animation Of it in the sheds contracts
may be expected written. 1t, of course,
depends upon what sort of policy in the
handling of the pooled end of the crop
is decided upon by the management.
If the pool carries out its program of
packing the entire acreage under con-
tract and preparing it for the market.
the acreage not contracted for will
quickly pass on to the hands of the
local packers IF, on the other hand,
the policy of the pool should be to
throw the field open for competitive
buying, or make large deal with one
or more big concerns to buy the bulk
on the basis of grades established in
the bundles on the farms, the indepen-
dent packers may sit back and wait.
The fact is that the present situation
leaves everybody pretty much up in the
air
At meeting of the pool officials at
Madison last Monday, John Holtan of
Stous hton was appointed warehouse
director Mr.. Holtan is man of wide
experience in the tobacco business and
we'll versed in warehouse management.
He assumes his new duties at once.
The position is in many ways of greater
Importance to the success of the pool
than that of the general manager or
any other office within the administra-
tion of the pool.

HARTFORD, CT, Sept. 4, 1917.
Fred B. Griffin, considered one of the
best tobacco experts in the country, was
last week chosen by the directors OF
the Connecticut Valley Tobacco Grow
ers' association to be general manager
of the tobacco pool just formed. The
selection of Mr.. Griffin to this impor-
tant place meets with universal salts
faction to the prodcers, packers, manu-
facturers and to the trade in general.
AS a producer, Mr. Griffin is recognized
as an expert and he is also an eminent
authority on all kinds and grades OF
leaf tobacco. He has been interested
in tobacco growing and packing since
he was Is years deaf.

LANCASTER, Pa, Sept. z, 1922.
Within the past week, for the second
time during the tobacco season, freak
hail storm, or, rather, succession OF
storms, passed over the leaf belts OF
age that will total thousands of dollars.
The loss to tobacco growers through
damage by hail will run into the thou
sands. The southern and eastern sec
tions of the country were the particu-
lar sufferers in this instance, while the
other sections reported a heavy tenn
perature. On the farm of Thomas
Gerhart, West Cocalico township, the
lightning struck the barn and tobacco
shedding and the buildings were burned
to the ground, entailing loss of SIS, 600.

NEW YORK. Sept. 7, 1922


Cigar manufacturers are looking with
interest to the time when the samples
of the 1921 Wisconsin packings will be
shown. Leading holders of Wisconsin
will not begin sampling until the latter
part of this month, and the new pack
ings will not be ready to show until the
middle of October or perhaps a little
later. The delay is due, more than to
any other cause, to the recent spell of
hot weather. 1t is fairly certain, judg-
ing by the interest that is manifested
by the manufacturers, that the new
samples will be received with interest,
and an active market is to be expected.
In fact the middle of October will un-
questionably be the busiest period that
Water Street has seen since the early
days of the recent Sumatra inscrip-
tions. Leaf.

MOVIE ACTORS IN TOWN!
SCHOOLS ARE CLOSED

They closed the school when a
movie company came to town.
That was the only thing left for
the faculty to do when George Mel
ford took his cast, including Doro-
thy Dalton, who is featured in the
title role, Rudolph Valentino, Maude
Wayne and others to make dock
scenes at one of the small villages
on San Francisco Bay coast, for his
latest Paramount production, "Moran
of Lady Lefty" which will be seen
tonight and tomorrow at the Ameri-
can theatre at regular prices.
A few youngsters discovered the
presence OF the motion picture COM
pany at the waterfront and the
news quickly spread. That day a
few pupils were missing from their
desks. Next day, when the COM
pany returned for more work, they
found a youthful audience awaiting
them.
when the teachers opened the
school there were no children to
teach. Hockey on a large scale was
the order of the day. When the
teachers learned the facts, they
joined the pupils, called holiday,
and there was general rejoicing.
A good time was had by all.

1t was not stated whether Mrs

Judge Callahan apparently thought
that was immaterial, at any rate

TO THE PEOPLE OF HUMBOLDT COUNTY

sincerely thank my friends and the people of
Humboldt County for the honor conferred on me
at the Primary held Sept 5. did not solicit votes,
nor did make any dishonorable bargains to secure
your endorsement. Notwithstanding this and over
the ISLANDERS and evil combinations emploved
against me, you elected me District ATTORNEY of
Humboldt County; l am deeply sensible of the
honor conferred and in return, | promise now to
do all that can be done to make the voice of the
people heard in Humboldt county. At this time, |
advise you as follows with respect to the VOTE AT
the close of the election 727 votes had been cast for
the rival candidates for District Attorney as shown
by the ballots themselves; 366 votes had been cast
for Warren, and 361 for Wilson Wilson never
had majority of three or any majority at all:
Warren had majority of five votes over Wilson.
This is the absolute truth about that. The ballots
show it today as they did at the close of the polls
Sept g. The ballots do not lie. You will note from
the ballot you will vote Tuesday next that my name
is not on the ballot; that the name of Wilson, who
did not get majority of the votes is placed there
instead. The man elected has been declared de-
feated; the defeated has been declared
elected What you gave to me, has been taken
away. AT this time, further than calling your at
tention to the truth, the only thing have to tell
you is this, that if it is possible in the law or pro-
cedure governing elections, to make the voice of
the people OF this county heard above the noise of
prejudice, hatred and wrong, the time will come
and it won't be long, before you will have chance
to pass upon in review everything that has hap
pened since Sept. 5. Justice is slow coach, but
it always makes the grade

RIGHT NOW, GIRLS,
IS YOUR CHANCE
This Is the Time of Year When Old
Bachelors Turn To Thoughts
of Marriage and They Can
Be Grabbed Easily
Oh, Min!

On, Mln!
The season approaches when the
erstwhile carefree bachelor starts to
feel sorry for himself; and as the
days begin Ito lengthen and the
cold begins to strengthen, he
ceases to noisly prate of freedom
from household cares and the respon-
sibilities attaching to the life of the
benedict and, with eyes filled to
overflowing with envy, makes care
full note of the fact that his mar
ried friends apparently enjoy life
fully as well with the rigors OF
winter staring them in the face as
they do in the mild and mellow
seasons of the year; and then it is
the bachelors mind visualizes pic
lures of what might have been,
had he not been too cowardly or
selfish, to assume the duties, obi
cations, and responsibilities that in
nerently devolve upon every man,
who is mentally and physically we'll
balanced, if he is to properly func-
ton and play his part well in the
game of life and scheme of the
universe.
Oh, Min!
This is the psychological moment,
girls, to watch your STEP" and
put forward your best foot, as there
are several old bachelors, right
here in Winnemucca, who have
growing pains of disgust mantling

the brows referred to are not lust
as clean as good hot suds,
With a fresh washrag, might make

Take fairly good-looking old
bachelor, girls, and he labors under
several handieaps in the matter of
Aeeping himself looking fresh and
latty. If he is without a valet and
living in that which he non-
-halantly refers to as "my den,"
he usually retires in bed that
looks as though it had just been
vacated by a litter of hound pups
and when he wakes in the morning
It IS with snort of disgust that
ne untangles himself from the
coverlets and rams the excelsior
back into the mattress, into which
ne has burrowed during the night.
Oh, Min!
As he brushes off the cotton, ex-
celsior and dog-hairs he talks to
himself in any unfriendly tone, and
then laves his hands in cold water,
washes one ear and the front part
of his neck, lathers his face and
proceeds to shave, in the course of
which he commits mayhem, breaks

A Good Bill

splendid evenings entertainment
Sunday night, good pictures being
screened, supplemented with a
special song number by Mrs. Geo.

in most pleasing manner. Mrs.
Brady was assisted in the chorus
rendition by the Misses Leona
Springer, Alice Gartiez and Ber-
neice Rossier, the former costumed
as Granny" The Misses Gartiez
and Rossier added a neat bit of nov
city by making their entree from
the rear of the audience, each
marching down a separate aisle,
singing as they made their way to
the stage to join Mfs. Brady and
Miss Springer. 1t was an effective
piece of work and lent pleasing
spice to the entertainment.

Dear Sir:
The Paradise Cattle Growers As
sociation desires to express its dis
approval of the language used in
a recent issue of your paper in
reference to the approaching trial
of Steve Boggio of this place in
the District Court.
Mr.. Boggio is a respected citi-
zen of this community. He is an
industrious man of family, heavy
taxpayer of Humboldt county and
valued member of this associa-
ton. Without reference to the
merits of his case, we believe he
is entitled to fairer treatment than
that which was manifest in the
published article in question.
Very truly yours,
