Connecticut Tobacco.

"Rusticus," writing to the New York Tobacco Leaf, dates his letter from "The Connecticut Valley" In copying the excerpt below it may hardly be ne- cessary to say that majority of the tobacco-farmers of the Connecticut val ley are not quite so badly discouraged as this would indicate. "Rusticus' says: .. ~a. t..
 There is very generalsfeelinE among our best tobacco growers that they have got to turn their attention to some oth- CT kinds of farming, as there is really no adequate return for the long-contin- ued labor necessitated by the growing of tobacco. There is no let up from spring until spring comes again. We hear of one very intelligent grower who says he intends to seed to grass the dozen acres now devoted to tobacco. He claims a sure profit in growing hay, as he gets from an outlay of fifteen dollars for fertilizers per acre, re- turn of at least four tons of hay to the acre. He often gets, five tons at two mowings. In this. way the wear and tear caused by the continuous watching and worrying-watching every cloud
 fearing disaster at any moment from hail, or later from an uhtime]y frost is avoided. Then only bin1ers are wanted, as 1t is claimed that our do' mestic leaf is unfit for wrappers Thi.

GOOD ADYIcE.
Farmers Advised te Plant Apple or
 ehards. 'a

Farmers Advised to Plant apple or- ehards. Years ago a great many more apples
 were raised upon Connecticut farms
 than are produced at present There
 was time when apples sold in ordina-
 ry seasons only at very low prices. and
 farmers made very little account Of the fruit except for cider. Orchards were neglected and their decadenee became
 marked and rapid. Insect enemies of
 the apple multiplied and were extreme ly destructive. Scientific horticultur-
 ists studied and ,experimented and at last came to the conclusion that spray ing with poisons was the only effectual
 means of fighting these pests. But farmers generally have been slow to re-
 sort to this method in their orchards. although they have used 1t in their po- tato fields freely enough. They decided
 that the apple crop was not profita- ble one, and allowed 1t to be destroyed. While the old orchards became worth
 less, and in many cases were cut  down, comparatively few new ones
 were planted. Some farmers have chosen to set out peach orchards. and others have taken fancy to small
 fruits. No fruit has been 50 neglected of late years as the apple. unless 1t be the cherry. As result apples are scarce nearly everywhere east of the Alleghanies. Good apples are worth more than oranges. New orchards are not coming into bearing fast enough to supply the home demand. The best apples can be grown in Connecticut, and everything appears to indicate that 1t will be profitable to produce them in the future. Probably farmers will make no mistake in planting an apple orchard of good varieties upon land we'll drained either naturally or otherwise. and giving 1t proper care in every way. A rough hillside of little value for other purposes may be an ad- mirable location for an apple orchard.
