SEVERAL SMALL PREBLE COUNTY LEAF CROPS HAVE' BEEN SOLD

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN Cigars are now being made from the costliest tobacco the cigar maker has ever owned; the high priced 1916 and 1917 crops. And this will continue to be the case during the balance of the

.year and up to the time the 1919 crop!

Is ready for working. We must remember that labor isust as high In cost as ever and thatthere has been no appreciable cufn the price of boxes," cans, labels, etc. What has been said as to cigar leaf and supplies also holds good with reference to the leaf used in cigarette, smoking and plug tobaccos, and of Bundles and the

labor entering into their manufactured

Cheaper tobacco, in any form, is not to be looked for In the near future; nor can we anticipate any reduction In revenue requirements so long as ' the country has need to sell bonds and thrift stamps. ' . No Leaf Buyers' Pool The deeper we have gone Into the various phases of the present abnormal condition affecting the cigar leaf trade the more certain are we that there is no combination of speculators or packers to depress the price of fillers, or indeed of .- any grade of cigar leaf tock. To begin with, all widely known leaf houses handle practically every leaf of value to their trade. This refers particularly to leaf Jobbers, who are located in every important tradj center. Taking the local packers as a class they are eacji in : competition. They are 'watchful of the best grow- . ers .and of the finest crops, in every district- They want goods they can "guarantee and which will please and retain customers and for such will always pay a premium as compared with the general run of the product. To this" extent they are always in competition as buyers,' and when it i-omes to marketing their purchases they are as anxious to make-a profit, and to Increase their business as are men in any other line of trade. This explains why their interests can not be pooled, and why individual judgment and requirements, the conditions of their own trade, and the character and size of their own stocks must always be the governing factors in their Bales and purchases. : The Situation In Ohio. . To the best of our information, the Ohio leaf grower still sticks to his views and tobacco. Even tentative buyers are still scarce and the few in

evidence are local packers or manu-

will cut their usual acreage from 25

to as hi eh as SO Der cent.

Neither the Water Street, New York,

leaf dealers, nor the packers generally,

will admit that any serious curtail

ment in acreage is probable anywhere. It is not a pleasant thought to cherish,

apparently, though an advance on

stock in farmers' hands, such as nat

urally follow such curtailment, would

as surely make their 1918 and old

crop uoiujuga relatively more vaiuauie. They seem to think that when the transplanting time comes 'round the fever to plant and to hope lor the best will be so prevalent that about the normal acreage in tobacco will be the result. This is, a possibility, of course, in some sectors, but that it will prove true in Ohio seems "utterly improbable, even though the cut- be less drastic than is indicated at this writing. . 1 William H.

sense any change in the situation, n change there hapens to be. While it is a certainty that a few eastern buyers came west two weeks ago, we know of no instance where they have bid a price direct to the farmer for his crop. There may have been such dickering, here and there, possibly, but not so far as we have been apprised by any grower. All these men have friends and connections in the Ohio leal trade districts and would scarcely need to visit tobacco farmers to get into intimate touch with the present status, and as to the position still maintained by the growers. Sales and Acreage. According to the best and latest ad' vices, both as to sales and proposed acreage reduction, it is claimed that two or three small crops have been disposed of in Preble county within the last week or two, but at what price we have been unable to discover. The county farm agent for Preble is omp authority for stating that a few unimportant sales were made in April, but that there wa3 no movement to affect the general situation. On the other hand, Mr. O. J. McKee of Lewisburg. Ohio, the general publicity agent for the Miami Valley growers, makes a no mention of any tobacco sales, whatBoth Swift and McKee are agreed, however, that there is to be a drastic cut in tobacco acreage this year. Each of them reports that a number of planters will not put in an acre of tobacco this year; also that others

TRADE KARX

II KE many other transports and battleships of the U. S. Navy, j the "George Washington" is equipped with aluminum cooking utensils, consisting of giant steam-jacketed kettles, coffee urns, stock pots and carriers used for conveying food from the kitchens to the feeding stations.

"CANT CUT OFF MY LEG

SAYS RAILROAD ENGINEER "I am a railroad engineer; about 20 years ago nys leg was seriously injured in an accident out West. Upon my refusing to" allow the doctor to amputate it I was told it would be impossible to heal the wound. I have tried all kinds of salves and had many doctors in the past 20 years, but to no avail. Finally I resolved to use PETERSON'S OINTMENT on my leg. You cannot imagine my astonishment when I found it was doing what over 100 things had failed to do. My leg is now completely cured." Gus Hauft. 799 Myrtle avenue, Brookljn. N. Y. -It makes me feel proud to be able to produce . an ointment like that," says Peterson of Buffalo. "Not only do I guarantee Peterson's Ointment for old sores and wounds, but for eczema, salt rheum, ulcers, itching skin and blind, bleeding, or itching piles, and I put up a big box for 35 cents, a price all can afford to pay and money back from your druggist if not satisfied." Adv.

Aboard the"George Washington there are 23 steam-jacketed kettles, 13 coffee urns, 150 stock pots and 1 25 food carriers. This equipment is made of the same material and in the same way as the "Wear-Ever" aluminum utensils that are serving in so many thousands of American homes. We are proud of the war-record of "Wear-Ever" proud of the demonstration it has given on ship and battlefield, in hospital and cantonment, of its ability to withstand the hardest kind of usage, far more severe usage than "Wear-Ever" would ever receive in the home. This "Wear-Ever" demonstration of durability emphasizes what so many women already know: that, on the basis of years of service.

"Wear-Ever" utensils are the most economical utensils possible to buy. We also wish to express our appreciation to those women who, Y although desiring to add to their x" Wear-Ever" sets during the war, were patient when they found it impossible to get the "Wear-Ever" utensils they wanted because of incomplete dealer-stocks as a result of the demands made on "Wear-Ever" by the national service. We are glad to announce, however, that we now have resumed manufacturing a complete line of "Wear-Ever" utensils in quantities, sufficient, we hope, to meet the nation-wide demand for these most durable utensils that are like silver in their shining beauty.
