WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET

Edgerton, Wisconsin, Sept. 1, 1922.
How large an acreage of northern
tobacco, not in the pool, has been
bought by independent concerne is the
question on the street. Bekkedal &
Son may have better than 1900 acres
on the contract books, and the others
between them twice as much. 1t is
a matter of estimate, of course, but
wide-awake buyers who have Travelled
through the different sections and
tried to buy ar agred that more than
5000 acres are spoken for The JEFF
ferson Co. of Sparta, Eckhart and
Mcintosh of Viroqua, Smith & Son of
Evansville, A. Jensen q Son, Dickin-
son, Sweeney & Son and Spitzner &
Son representatives of Edgerton, these
and others have bought quite extern
sively and most of them are still
working, though the pickings are Slow
er because the desirable fields are
growing fewer in number as the days
pass by. The prices have stuck around
% cents, though some contracts have
decorations of % and even 80 cents
placed on them with percentage out
for low grades. OF course, it must
be remembered that according to the
figures given by the state Marketing
Department 80 per cent of the acre
age is already contracted for in the
pool. That means that if the 10000
acres accounted for as the total 1922
planting is correct, there is less than
5000 acres available for outside buy
ers, of which nearly one-half is taken
already. This situation makes it rea-
sanable to suppose that field buying
in the southern COMMITTEES may omen any
day, and that the good tobacco open
fore long. The portion of attractive
binder stock in the fields of southern
Wisconsin is going to be short any
way, and the fields not signed up in
the pool hold comparatively small
amount in the aggregate.
Some hail fell last week and did
damage to tobacco fields, but the best
and largest areas are left untouched.
The cool nights and moderate temper
atures of the past days have not hur-
ried the growth nor FASTENED matur-
ity of the leaf, but the stand is, never
theless, rapidly arriving at the point
where the harvest must be done. 1t
is always a good policy to keep the
suckers off; this years growth of leaf
needs to be protected by keeping the
suckers off more perfectly than ever.
Very little of the old northern is left
for the open market outside of the
Jefferson packing at Sparta and the
cooperative at Viroqua. There has
been some inquiry for desirable south
ern cigar leaf. but sales in any guam
tity have not been reported-Tobac-

ANNOUNCING A NEW NASH
SIX FIVE-PASSENGER SEDAN

simultaneously with the opening of
the fall closed car season the Nash
Motors Company Announces five-pass-
enger six-cylinder sedan. The new
model is being shipped to distributors
and dealers as rapidly as production
will permit
"The new five-passenger six-cylin-
der sedan was produced in response to
wide spread demand on the part of
Nash dealers and the buying public
for car of this type" said G. B. Voor-
his, president and director of
sales of the Nash Motors Company.
with this addition the Nash line now
includes thirteen models each meeting
separate and distinct requirements. In
the six-eylinder car line are now three
enclosed ears-the new five-passenger
sedan, the seven-passenger sedan, and
the four passenger coupe, while the
four cylinder line includes four en-
closed body types-the five-passenger
sedan, the five-passenger carriole,
three passenger coupe, and two pass
enger cab"
The new Six Sedan for five passen-
gers is built on the Nash 121 inch
wheel-base chassis; its design and APP
pearance are in keeping with that good
taste which distinguishes all models
of The Nash Motors Company. The
car is hung low on a strong enduring
chassis, yet with ample road clearance,
and with its wonderful easy riding
springs, it rides as buoyantly on coun-
try highways and crowded roads as in
service about town.
The famous Nash Perfected-Valve-
Head Motor is a guarantee of its faith
full and continuous performance It's
mohair interior furnishing and uphol-
stery is of the same choice quality
used in the most expensive cars Its
four doors are wide and its seats are
unusually comfortable.

LIGHTING THE SICK ROOM

Sunlight is one of the most power
full alsln1ectants III the world and
Tor thels reason, and no other, it is
needed in every SICK room. Sunless
rooms, moreover, even II they were
wholesome, are TOO depressing TO {;
patents spirits for use except, per-
maps, III hot almmer weather. Ordl-
nary well-resulated light IS best IN q
SICK room and, except IN few dis
eases, especially those IN which the
eyes are affected. 1t IS undesirable
to darken the room or to encourage IN
any way an appearance o. gloom. Inc
patients eyes should be protected,
however, from bright lights and their
reflections strike differently upon the
eyes of persons sitting or standing,
ana light that seems agreeable to
the attendant may therefore be pam
frl to the patient.
Almost all persons sleep best IN
dark rooms, and in most cases i IS
undesirable for a sick room to be
lighted at night. The attendant, how
ever must be able to see what she is
doing and generally needs shaded
candle, small night light or an electric
flash. 1t should be possible to see the
patient clearly in case of need, other
wise serious changes in his condition
occurring in the night may pass UNI
noticed.
A reading lamp on the bedside table
is desirable for patients allowed to
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1922-03-13

read, but reading in bed, even with a
wcll-regulated light is fatiguing, and
should not be continued for long unin-
terrupted periods. A pocket flash
hight is safer than matches and can
die for patients who wish to consult
their watches in the night; indeed,
matches in the hands of patients al
ways involve risk while flash light
can be kept under the pillow within
easy reach without any danger what
ever.
Some patients find twilight period
of great depression. In such cases
the time may be shortened by draw
ing the shades early, lighting the
lights and remembering not to leave
HIM alone. This should be done I'M
ostentatiously, because any obvious at
tempt to cheer person up generally
results in increased depression. All
artificial lighting in the sick room
should be designed for restfulness and
cheer, but when the patient wishes to
take nap the lights should be low
cred.
