NEW YORK, Feb. %, 1922.


The Leaf prognosticatese as follows:
The majority of leaf merchants in
cline frankly to the opinion that there
has undoubtedly been decided drop in
the consumption of cigars Of all classes,
quite apart from the record of produc-
tion figures. At the same time they
feel that the downward trend in con-
sumption has travelled the limit and
that from now on there is certain to be
a steady improvement in this respect.
1t is also, significant from the stand
point of the cigar leaf merchant that
practically no surplus of cigars of the
type which the public is demanding ex-
lists, and that the cigars which will be
consumed during the current year are
yet to be manufactured. If this inter-
probation Of the status of the cigar in
dustry be correct, and there seems lit
tie reason to question it, we are fur
nished with pretty good basis for the
belief that business in the cigar leaf
market is also certain to improve as
production goes On.

Wisconsin Tobacco Market
EDGERToN. WIS. March 10, 1922

EDGERTON. Wis. March 10, 1922.
The situation offers some peculiar
phases of the tobacco market locally
that are causing some bewilderment in
the minds of those growers who made
thorough clean-out of their last crop
in order to get correspondingly better
price because they had exercised such
conscientious care in the handling of
the crop. And what is the result?
They have sold the filler and ragged
end, between 25 and 35 per cent of the
crop, for the very satisfactory price of
from to cents, while the good end
fers Z cents. 1t is not forgotten, how
ever, that the sales at from 10 to Is
cents for southern goods brought only
3 cents for the short end Yet, the
grower who has not sold the asserting
end of his 1921 tobacco is bewildered
when he hears that the portion which
he considered the money producing one
is not going to bring him over cents.
Several parties have let go at that
price. They need the money to pay
taxes, help, and to swing the outlay of
the approaching planting season. The
grower who can hold out against the
pressure of need for cash, is going to
sit tight, reasoning that if the future
does not make things better, it surely
can not make it any worse.
In the movement of the 1920 tobacco
in bundle there is not mucl of any
hitch. The stemmers take it, seen or
unseen, at cents. Some 1920 tobacco
was assorted and packed on the farms;
the amount of this class is not so very
large, but it offers opportunities for
investment, as it most likely never can
be bought at lower figures than would
buy it right now. The reason is this
that this tobacco suffers for lack of de-
mand through the same reasons that
the warehouse men are unable to dis
pose of their packings, due to the ex-
ceedingly cautious buying on the part
of the manufacturers, which in turn is
due to a slack demand in the cigar mar
ket, We will buy, says the indepen-
dent packer, if we can sell

Death of a New Citizen

Miles +. Hoover, age So years,
died of heart failure at his home in
the eastern part of town, Monday
morning, and was buried in the Pine
apple River cemetery Tuesday morn
ing. The funeral services were con-
pastor of the Presbyterian church.
Though deceased was a comparative
stranger. his casket and grave were
covered with flowers, the mute trib-
ute of a sympathizing community.
Mr. Hoover came here from South
Dakota in January of this year and.
in company with William c. Girty,
with whom he formed an attach
ment while serving in the American
Army in the Philippine Islands,
bought property in the eastern part
home. He was born in Knoxville.
Iowa, Jan. 5, 1868; and, on growing
up, was engaged in various lines of
industry. until the beginning of the
Spanish-American war, when he was
into Company D of the
Iowa Volunteer Infantry with the
rank of first lieutenant, and served
calamity, having been member of
he Iowa National Guard for three
,ears, ranking from private to first
lieutenant. Continuing in the army,
le served two years in the Phillip
zine Islands. Disabilities contracted
Turing this service caused him to
inter the Battle Mountain Sanitar-
um at Hot Springs, South Dakota,
where he remained until he came
o PUnta Gorda. His intimate friend, |
IIr. Girty, says that Mr.. Hoover was
| man of many attainmentG, OF
| kind and lOvable disposition,
d . though not known as al
,hUrch member, he was a Christian
During his short stay in
his community, he won the respect
and friendship of all with whom ne
came in contact, and these in particu-
lar will deeply feel his loss. AS far
as known, only one close relation
him. viz: an aunt living in
Knoxville, Iowa.

PARK TRAAIMELL WILL WORK
| FOR lower freight rates; Smith-Towner
| Educational bill; railroad mileage books:
lease Muscle Shoals to Ford; and other
| good measures.
HE WILL WORK AGAINST the vic
ious anti-lynching bill; high tariff on pot
ash and other bad measures.
HE is AGAINST the return of the
saloon in any form, is ALSO AGAINST
the socalled Sanity League instgated
by the AMERICAN BREW RS (operat-
ing at Jacksonville), its main object be-
ing to work to elect men to the Senate
and House who are against prohibition.
FREIGHT RATES INCREASED six
ty-seven per cent in Florida, billion
dollars in guarantees paid to railroads
from the taxpayers money, are some OF
the disastrous results of the RAILROAD
BILL TRAMMELL FOUGHT AND NOT-
ED AGAINST Trammell wanted the
railroads returned to owners but not by
law tnat allowed the outrageous increase
in freight rates Trammells opponent
asks the voters to punish him because
he fought this Bill Some railroad own
ers also want him punished T II | S
CHARGE against Trammell has just as
much merit as any other charge his OPP
pOnent has made against him
WITH THREE BILLION dollars ad-
iusted compensation already paid to rail
roads and contractors, Trammell will not
turn his back ON the heroes who saved
the Republic at the battle front. His
mind is open to fair and just consider
alton of their cause. He has not pledged
hims elf to any pending measure on this
subject and the statement made to the
contrary by his opponent is absolutely
untrue.
THE INSIDIOUS EFFORT of Tram
melrs opponent to make it appear that
Trammell was not friendly to President
Wilson because he voted as his own judy
ment dictated is in keeping with his
man other UNFAIR ATTEMPTS to pre-
judice the voters against Trammell who
was always friendly toward Wilson and
vOteL in harmony with his views dozens
of times. At the beginning of the war
many patriotic citizens differed as be-
tween the volunteer system and the dratt
plan.
TRAMMELLS OPPONENT will no
doubt keep up his knocks and unfair
methods until the polls are closed but the
voters will not be misled by such tactics.
| REPORTS FROM ALL parts of the
State indicate that Trammeu will be re-
elected by a very large majority.
| SIX YEARS ago TrammelTs opponent
| claimed the State and did not carry a
county Now, as then. his claims will not
| come true.
PARK TRAMMELL is PROFOUND

AND WILL SINCERELY APPRECIATE
EVERY VOTE CAST FOR HIM ON
