The tobacco pan;- are generally upon the margin Of
rivers yet there il large quantity OF good tobacco raised
upon high hands dshut iOm tie rivers, but the former

The quantity ohnd cultivated depends altogether up
ON the means Of the cutvaior. and the product OF the
crop differs IN value according 10 The quantity and quality

iest planters from single crop Of tobacco whilst the
penses attending it, cultivation considerably less than
those incident ~ the raising Of sugar cane.
When the tobacco i gathered, ii is hung upon poles
about fifteen feet in length dry, The leaf "a allowed to
remain short time in tie air after til ripe to dry little
but not much il break during opera
ton OF hanging.
As the toblcco dry is piled selecting DAY
for hi. purpose little damp, that the leaf may not be
liable 10 be broken IN the handling the pile when made
carefully closed from tie air. the floor OF the plng house
j. made Of wood aud elevated from the ground that the
moisture mby the tobacco, the pile formed witt
symmetry Gnd in such manner that the leaf may be
broken. This operation OF pug l. made that the tObac.
may acquire good color, ard is allowed
remain more than months in this way, ghen, by this
tme and OlcI much before, the selection aud prepaTa-
ton for market !, made.
The preparation Of the Tobacco for market follows
viz the largest perfect and best quality leaves
frst selected and called LJrd aud superior all
tho other; Tie next il called Pr,ra and il nearly equal
To the iorncr then the Ssg,,da he inferior to

There is likewise kiaa called Libra de Pie, which j.
made up from the first leaves or those which come

After tie selection above expressed il finished th
Toblcco is packed by forming tie leaves into buuch,s
