The Paducah Herald contains a letter
from An Old Tobacco Dealer" which
| gives some valuable information concern
ing the growing crop. II says:
In the first place, / would speak Of the
crops of Lyon, Caldwell and OFitteHden
| counties, from all parts Of which counties
have seen farmers and others nearly ev-
| cry day. ] have not yet cOpyerSed with
| the first one who does nOt represent the
tobacco crop as being the poorest one fer
many y~ears-nOt one third nj the quan=
tity planted has yet been topped: Ahoth-
er third Of the crop may be ready for top
ping within the next three weeks. As for
the balance, il il is ever topped il viii
nave to be in October and November neat,
by frost.
From all the information / can gather,
not over three-fOurths of the number of
acres planted last year has been set this
summer, and making due allowance for
seasons, etc, these three counties viii not
make more than half the quantity they
did last year, and much of that must be of
very poor quality.
From Missouri | learn that the crop is
forty or fifty per cent. more than il was
last season, when the crop was q very
small one, ana that much Injured by b
frdst! "
On the Ohio river, including Hender-
son, Union and Davies counties, and a
few of the counties adjoining back Of
them, the crop Il said 10 DC neaflYor a quite
equal tn last YEARS., and With good sea-
SONS from this on, though from this see
ton We have complaint of danger To the
crop by frenohtHg, etc;
From the Western district of Tennessee
and Kentucky Purchase, the crop, it is
thought, will he better than last years,
though within the last week We have
complaints from that quarter as to the
crops being cut short by drought, etc.
In the Clarksville district, and the
Green river country, the crop is looked
upon as inevitably cut short one-third or
more in quantity, while the quality must
be inferior, on account of late planting of
ii0fthB NiTgtRrC crop have but little
information but so Ear It il said the crop
In that state viii be one-third less than
last year. F"
