of this, an instance in point is as fol-

the result of an experiment to ascer>
tain the value of humus as a etainer
of moisture. Two soils (new and old)
were selected from near Crookston, in
Red River valley, for conducting the
experiment, and the following were
the results obtained by Professor Sny-
der who had charge of the work:
New Soil-Cultivated two years
Humus, 3.75 per cent. Water, 1913
per cent.
Old Soil-Cultivate twenty-one

ference of 4.34 per cent Of water in

dorse all that the captain says as to
the great success made by 444mself and
his associates in tobacco-g growing.
The quality of tobacco grown in Flor
ida, and particularly in Polk county,
is acknowledged to be, when properly
cured or ''b,tuned," equal to the best
grown in Cuba, or anywhere else..
While it is we'll to encourage the
planting of tobacco, and all other sta
pie field crops, and for each farmer to
strive to produce the best quality and
largest crop possible, few farmers will
succeed in realizing ST per pound for
tobacco. Nor is it necessary in order
to make it a most proTtable crop that
such prices should obtain. [ have

erS.
Tobacco is no new crop in Florida,
and while the orange for time mo-
nopolized the attention of the new
conner, ''since the freeze" the farmer
is more in evidence than the fruit
grower.
L have before me the report of the
Florida Commissioner of Agriculture
for the year 1896. Page 1O1, ''Tobac>
co, shows that, with but fourteen
counties reporting, thirty-one not re-
ported, 4,1O1 acres were grown, yield
ing 2,O35,29S pounus, which sold for
$52O,995, an average of 496 pounds per
acre, and an average of $124.1O per
acre, and an average of 251a cents per
pound to the farmer. When properly
cured curing is distinct business
doubtless the value of the crop would
be doubled. All farm products, cotton,
wool, hemp, cane, tobacco, etc., are
generally doubled in value each time
that they go through manufacturers
hands.
Tobacco curing, or "betuning," is
distinctly a manufa curing process,
requiring most skiliful management
by men trained to the work. [ mag
inc that very large part of the 81
per pound realized by the Cuban To-
bacco Growers Company was owing to
their skill and knowledge in properly
curing the farmers raw leaf.
[ agree with Captain Cordery that
Florida can grow as fine a quality OF
tobacco as Cuba, and in immense
quantity. 1 go further and say that
we can also replace Cuban sugars in
the United States market, and that sug-
ar is crop of much greater import
ance, both to Cuba and America, than
tobacco.

other legumes have given better re-

of mention in this connection, and
brief reference will now be made tC
them.
The Beggar Weed Desmodium mol
le) as Soil enovator.-FlOrida clio
yer, or beggar weed, has proven itself
to be admirably adapted to the sandy
soils of this State. Not only does il
gather nitrogen from the air and en-
rich the soils with it, but, by means
of it's long roots, it penetrates soils
to considerable depths, in search OF
food and brings it nearer the surface
where it is placed in reach of all cult

Gus portions of the State and analyses
in this laboratory, have shown it 'tc
possess exceedingly high feeding val
ue. 1t appears to be equal to the best
meadow hay in this respect and all
stock consume it with great relish.
Here, in Florida, it is already highly
priced by some for planting upon
worn sandy soils, to improve their me
chanco1 condition, and the great merit
it possesses for this purpose, and It's
high feeding value, are sure to bring
it, eventually, into more general use.
1T is a Wild rank grower in many sec
tions, and can be made to flourish!
without effort, anywhere, and Will
produce several crops of forage in !he
course of single season. 1t cannot
be too highly commended as a reno
waiting agent on the worn sandy soils
of this State.
The Velvet Bean Dolichos multi
forus) .-Another legume that hA
lately come into prominence and thai
promises to be valuable agent in re-
claiming the worn soils Of Florida
and also a most excellent food for
stock, is the velvet bean. During Il {
past two years, the Station here has
been conducting experiments with
this plant and the results have been
very promising.
1t is now known that the plant Mi
grow luXuriantly all over the StaI
and stock of all kinds are exceedingly
fond of it. The practical results III
feetune it have been all that could be
desired, and the limited study that we
have been able to give to it in TINS
laboratory has indicated that it is full
Nv up TO the best of the legumes il

In the near future, it is proposed t(
make a complete chemical study OF
this plant in different stages Of
growth and publish the information
for the benefit OF the farmers. There
is scarcely a doubt that it will ye
play an important part, not only II
solving the forage problem in Florida
but in improving both the mechanlca
condition and productive capacity @
our thin, sandy lands, by increasing
their stores of both nitrogen and hu
