CULTIVATION OF CIGAR-LEAF
TOBACCO IN FLORIDA,

a report on the Florida tobacco in
dustry is now in presIRnd will soon be
issued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture as Report No. 81,
entitled Cultivation of Cigar Tobacco
in Florida 1t was prepared by Mr..
Marcus L Floyd, tobacco expert of the
Division Of Soils, in CO operation with
the Division OF Vegetable Physiology
and Pathology of the Department.
Mr.. Floyd has had about twelve
years practical experience in the de
velopment of the Florida tobacco indus
try and the results of that experience
are embodied in the report.
The report describes the methods
used in Florida in cultivatiDg, curing,
fermentirg g, grading, sorting, and bal
ing florida grown Cuban and Suna
ira tobacco.
1t begins with a chapter on the re-
uuirements of the cigar leaf trade,
states what kinds of tobacco are de-
manded by the trade both for filters
and wrappers aud what must be fur
nished, and shows that Florida is grad
uaIly approaching the condition nee
e5sary to supply the tobacco required.
Toe cultivation Of Cuban and Suma
t?a tobacco in Florida is fully de
scrIbed, beginning with the kind Of
soil nee sJary, it's preparation, burn
ing of the ground for seed beds and
how it should be fertilizsd. Then fol
lows the division of the land into beds,
the sowing OF seed aud selection of
early eesd beds which should be stu
ated On lands sloping from north TO
south, protected on the north by for
ests and open on the south to let in the
midday sun. The report says it is safe
to protect these early beds by cover
ing them with cheese cloth stretched
on frames made around and over the
beds.
A description of the methods EN-
ployed in keeping do wn insects, draw
ing plants for transplanting, field cul.
tivation, harvesting, ard curing the
leaf is then given. This ends the
work Of the farmer.
An account Of the manner in which
the tobacco Ia handled after it reaches
the packing house fellows. When it
arrives there it is pa up in neat and
easily handled paper bundles. It is
Fl 81 divided into grades, sorted and
tied il hands of about fifty leaves each
after which it is busked and fermen-
ted. After fermentation it is put in
cases where it remains three or four
days by which time the moisturei IN the
leaf becomes uniform It is then made
into what are called Cuban carrots and
put in bales, eighty carrots to the bale.
The report also gives a brief history
of the development Of the tobacco in
dustry and cost of growing tobacco in
Florida, and a description OF q barn or
curing shed adopted by the most sue
ce ,stul growers.
