Tobacco Growing in Connecticut.

The Hartford Times says that nearly
one hundred vessel loads of manure have
been shipped this season from New
York, Brooklyn and Jersey City to
Glastonbury and East Hartford for the
use Of the tobacco growers, while at
leatt fifty more vessels have unloaded
in towns along the Connecticut river.
Fully one hundred loads have been re-
ceived at Sheffield and other towns on
the west side of the river by rail. The
vessels average fifty cords each and
farmers pay from sl2 to SIS cord.
Twenty years ago a cord of common
livery stable manure would have been
deemed extravsgantly high at twelve
dollars cord or six dollars q wagon
load, but the high price of the weed
sends up that of the fertilizers required
to produce it Manure is 80 costly in
Massachusetts that a farmer living in
Springfield could not, on a fair expert
ment, raise corn for less than two dol
lars bushel unless he made the crop
in part at the expense OF the soils nat
ural fertility. Southern and western
farmers, who are unconsciously wear
ing out their landed estates, little dream
OF the future cost to fully recuperate
them.
