Tobacco Circular Notes Ohio and Maryland Auction Trends

The Baltimore circular from September 2, 1889 reports higher sales for Ohio tobacco last month with Mr. Louts purchasing about 500 birds for Duisburg at 3 to 7 dollars. Firing grades, especially spangled bright colors, are in demand, while coarse dark and unsound stocks lag. Western market improvements lift medium to better grades but Ohio air cured prices remain below earlier highs. Prospects for Kentucky and Virginia crops are fair for small yields. Maryland expects about half a typical crop. Ohio leaf size will be small with bright colors likely, favoring fired tobacco. Inspections are delayed due to warehouse congestion. 3,355 hhds of Ohio and 18,862 hhds of Maryland inspected to date, total stocks 9,789 hhds and 15,964 hhds respectively, with reinspections affecting last weeks.
