The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1922-12-15

That the leaf for asserting held by
the Pool after the low grades, the
short crops only fit for stemming and
the clearcut have been made will be
dlsappoint tingiy limited in quantity is
well understood. Some of the men who
have given the matter attention say
that the quantity Of this kind of leaf
will not reach 1000, 900 pounds. This
situation at time when the manufac-
turers seem eager to possess Wisconsin
binders explains in some measure the
eagerness on the part of the packers
during the summer and fall to absorb
all available good crops in the hands of
the independent growers, movement
which has swept this portion eff the
1922 acreage off the boards. It is but
natural that all firms who realize their
needs Of binders should be on the
ground to make their wants known also
to the Pool. A considerable number of
merchants have already made known
their desire to purchase cigar leaf held
by the Pool as soon as it gets into the
bundle. All, of course, wish to partici-
pate in the best grades. The Pool has
decided tosgrade into four classes-A
B, c and D. 1t may be confidently ex-
pected that in the grade A will be
found the fancy northern leaf. That
this lot will be quite limited is certain,
and it will have hungry customers. Any
one of the packers in the state handl-
ing considerable tobacco could easily
take care of the entire A grade, but
the policy of the Pool, though not def
initely given out, will undoubtedly be
to prorate as far as possible the fancy
lot at it's disposal among the firms
which feel that they can pay the price
to be asked. What the price will be
has not been made public, but that it
will be fancy enough to meet the best
figures already paid for independent
crops in the northern fields may be
taken for granted. There is going to
be great many interesting angles to
the trading in the Pool cigar leaf, but
if good and sensible counsels prevail,
which isss likely under the direction of
the Pool sales manager, the Pool should
not this year find much reason to oper-
ate in the packing of tobacco.

is THE COAL STRIKE SETTLED.
The Same Old Issues Have Got to
Come Up Again Next Summer.

The public is pleased to have the
long drawn out coal strike settled.
Yet the so called settlement is
really nothing of the kind, merely a
truce in the industrial battle, when
both sides quit for a little to bury
the dead and get their breath.
The same old issues have got to
come up again next summer and they
must be really settled then, unless
the country is to suffer very severe
ly.
The time has come when the Unit
ed States government can no longer
avoid action. 1t is the tendency of
politicians of all parties, to hesitate
TO align themselves on holly disputed
questions. They fear to take sides
against any popular feeling or
strongly organized element. Their
tendency is to drift along hoping that
will remove themselves.

Frequently they are in honest doubt
created by the magnitude of new
problems and do not know which way
they ought to turn.
The problems do not solve them
selves, and men of force and vision
and intelligence must do the best
they can. Doing nothing may be
worse than making a mistake. When
some kind of action is taken, it at
least will demonstrate whether the
theory on which it was based was
correct or not.
The government should not again
permit a great necessary of life like
coal to be tied up in this way. 1t
must tell the contending parties that
they must consent to some form of
Cancellation or arbitration, or that
severe penalties will otherwise be
imposed. And it must protect the
public from unfair prices whether
caused by the profits of operators
or the wages of employees. The pub
lie after this warning, will not toler-
ate another experience such as this.

believe there is such a place. True,
young men have gone to other states

have gone, and never made enough
to get back. Others have hung on,
hoping for better seasons and better
crops, but the general result is what
counts and on general results, we

GEO. DRAPER 80 YEARS YOUNG
Well Known Building Contractor Cele-
brated His Birthday Saturday.

Geo. Draper, one of Decorah's well
known pioneer residents and local
building contractor celebrated his
ninetieth birthday last Saturday. Just
to show that he was as young as
ever, Mr.. Draper climbed to the roof
of his two story house, which has
steep roof, and proceeded to clean
the chimney, to get things in shape
for winter. He didn't complete the
job Friday, and concluded to leave
the balance for Saturday, his birth
day, when he finished the chimney.
Mr.. Draper has been a resident of
DEBORAH since 1855, coming here
from Cleveland, Ohio, that year,
where he was married, and has been
resident here ever since. He was
born in England and came to Amer
lea with his parents when four years
old. He has been one of North
eastern Iowa's we'll known building
contractors all these years, and has
followed his trade almost continu-
ously up to now. He is one of those
men who never believed in sitting
around, even though he had the OPP
portunity, and work was one of his
pet hobbys, and he kept everlastingly
at it.
Mr.. Draper is a member of the
Independent Order of Oddfellows, OF
DEBORAH, and we believe has the dis
tinction now Of. being the oldest
Oddfellow in Iowa, having Joined
them in 1858.
Mr.. Draper has been a mighty
good citizen, always on the square,
and he has lived an upright, honor
able life, and we don't believe he
has an enemy in the length and
breadth of the land. We congratu-
late him on reaching his ninet!eth
milestone, and hope that he will en-
JOY health and happiness for many
years to come.
