Items on Tobacco Culture.

Of the different varieties of tobacco
planted Mt the Alabama station at Au-
burn tho Cuban varieties were the first
to perfect their growth and were ripe
and ready for cutting early in August.
These were much blistered and made
leaf of poor quality, owing to their
rapid growth and early maturing dur
ing the month of July. which was Il wet
month, making unfavorablc conditions
for the growth of tobacco of good quail
lty. Another important fact was OBJ
served in connection with Cuban vari-
eties-that is, that the leaves were
coarse and thick, not so we'll adapted
for either wrappers or filters for cigars,
too strong for any smoking purposes.
The varieties from Virginia, North
Carolina and Connecticut did not mako
as rapid growth as the Cuban varieties
and did not ripen until September and
continued to ripen until October. Some
plants of good size and quality were OBJ
tanned from these varieties which would
make good quality of chewing tobacco
and cigars.
With the view of testing the quality
OF the tobacco raised on the station for
cigar purposes, and as instruction to
the agricultural students, an expert
enced cigar maker was employed to
make up IA small quantity of the tobacco
into cigars. During the process of max
ing, when the cigars were in damp
condition, they were weighed. 1t took
from 1870 to 1875 of the smaller size To
weigh pound, and from 60 to SO of
the larger size to weigh pound. From
the above the conclusion can readily he
drawn as to the profits arising from to-
Dacco when manufactured into I'll sars,
and this experiment should encourage
