Tobacco Exhibit For Paris Exposition

Tobacco Exhibit For Paris Exposition
The leaf tobacco exhibit for the Paris
Exposition Of 1900 is now being pre-
pared for shipment in the Division of
Soils of the Department Of Agricul-
ture at Washington. This will be with
out doubt the finest collection ever ex-
hibited by the United States. 1t in
cIudes the varieties, grades, types, and
qualities of tobaccOs from all of the
principal tobaccO-growing sections Of
this country. This display will COM
prise only the raw material, supple
lnented by large collection of photo
graphs. and in a few instances, sam
pies illustrating the different stages OF
the tobacco in the process of manufac-
turing.
The leaf tobacco exhibit is under the
immediate direction of Prof. Milton
Whitney, Chief of the Division Of
Soils, assisted by Mr.. Marcus L. Floyd,
tobacco expert of that division. All Of
the important tobacco growing dis
tricts were visited by Mr.. Floyd dur
ing July and August, when material
was collected for this exhibit. Neither
time nor labor has been spared to
make this display a credit to the Uni
ted States at large.
In the collection of samples now be-
ing packed for shipment the variety of
shading, from the bright yellow and
white Burley to the dark wrappers and
African black, Immediately attracts the
eye. The uniformity, the arrangement
of the samples, the difference in tex
ture of the thin and heavy leaves, the
various qualities, and the large num-
bers of grades. are features of the dis
play. The lover of the plug, the cigar
cite, the pipe, and the expensive cha.
vana," will find his especial ''wcnd in
the raw material. The stogies, snuffs,
and pipe-smoking tobaccos are also
represented in the collection.
The differences In the foreign types
are worthy of consideration. These are
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1899-11-08

just what causes the difference in the
product.
1t is the purpose Of the division to
send field party to Louisiana early in
1900 to make a study of the soils of the
perique-tobacco district in that State
Preparations will soon be made to
equip a room where experiments in
the fermentation and curing Of the va
rious grades of tobacco may be carried
on. BY these investigations Professor
Whitney hopes to make improvements
in the tobacco products and in the
trade as they exist to-day. Special at
tention will be given to the Cuban and
Sumatra types, as it is DESTROYS to pro-
duce in this country quality equal to
the imported article, so that the United
States will not have to depend on for
eign goods.
Several bulletins on tobacco investi-
cations have been published by the Di-
vison, the most recent being 'The Gull
tivation of Cigar-leaf Tobacco in Flori-
d." by Marcus L. Floyd. This gives,
from practical standpoint, the de-
mands of the cigar trade and shows
how the growers have tried to meet
this demand in the culture Of the to-
bacco in Florida. When it is consider
ed that the tobacco industry stands
second in the amount of revenue
brought into the United States the i'm
pOrtance Of the work undertaken by
the Department in this line may be
better understood. With this in mind,
Secretary Wilson has determined that
it is essential that the tobacco trade
and industry should be thoroughly in
vestigated and our tobacco products
well represented at the Paris EXPOSE
ton of 1900.

Edible Mushrooms.

Poisonous mushrooms and the edi-
BILE or non-poisonous sorts, are dis
tinctly marked. Yet it is to be remem-
bered that growing wild, side by side,
in the forest and fields the two classes
are not easily distinguished, and it is
from the ranks of these Indigenous
sorts that fatal accidents, from eating
occur Agaricus arvenis, the "horse
mushroom" is not to be COMPOUNDED
with the wild sorts; it is wholesome,
palatable and nutritious. 1t is propa-
gated from what gardeners call
spawn" and botanists "mycelium." It
is sold by seedsmen and dealers in
garden supplies in the form of 'brick,"
charged with spawn, and when once
obtained like yeast it continues to
multiply. A mushroom bed is almost
inexhaustible. Just under the surface
of the soil there will always be mass
of fine thread-like roots, which, under
favorable circumstances, send rapidly
up small round bodies that expand in
to umbrella-shaped plants that are
gardeners all know this mushroom at
ready to eat. Cooks, marketmen and
sight, and it is as wholesome and free
from poisonous faint as a potato, or an
apple.
To buy the bricks of mushroom
spawn and make the beds at home is
the sure way to avoid accidents; the
horse mushroom never mixes or n.y.
bridizes with any other kind. In fact,
this is one redeeming feature of even
the deadly poisonous sorts, that they
never mix. Each species of the genus,
which numbers over 5000, is distinct
from every other, and will so remain,
no matter if they do grow near togeth-
er. There is one wild mushroom that
closely resembles the horse, or agaricus
arvensis, and that is agaricus campes-
iris. Cooks and gardeners do not
recognize any difference in the two,
and the reason is easily explained, in
that the agaricus campestris grows in
pastures and on frequented roadsides

Sprouts October and November
are ideal months to make mushroom
beds. Any old shed that will keep out
the frost and prevent freezing, or a
cellar, with rich stable compost for
bases and bottom heat, can be utilized
and an abundant family supply kept up
for the year. Shade is essential, and
very fine, inexpensive mushroom beds
may be constructed in places shaded
by trees with low, sweeping branches.
and if there is a house, wall, or any
protective force to keep off the north
wind so much the better.
The peasantry of European countries
consider mushrooms of next import
ance to meat, and it is said they are
and finding that we allow an immense
forest supply to go to- waste. The diff
ference lies in the fact that the Euro
pean countries are crowded as to popu-
lation, and food products are not so
abundant, according to the numbers to
be fed, as in our more favored land.
There is on necessity for our people to
use wild, forest products of any kind,
that number poisonous varieties
among them. The campaign of edu-
cation going on now will eventually
teach even school children how to tell
a poisonous from an edible mushroom.
The Government encyclopedias and
reports furnish texts and illustrations
which are plain enough to be studied
in the botany classes at school,; but the
study of mushrooms and fungoiGs in
their native state does not apply to the
horse mushroom, further than that it is
a representative of the class. It has
not a single questionable feature and
may with safety be relied upon as IN
article Of diet, for the family, and as
a very profitable vegetable for mar
keting.
The hotels and restaurants constant
~ demand mushrooms in all cities, but
it is always this we'll known mush-
room raised from the spawn of COM
merce. City authorities would forbid
the sale, in the markets, of mixed va
rieties from the meadows and forests,
unless some great discrimination were
shown in the selection Gerarde, the
old English bOtanist, says:
Eat only the meadow mushroom,
1t is ill trusting any of the rest'
The meadow mushroom" is the
Agaracus Campestris, almost identical
with the A'Arvensis, just described.
The cap or umbrella top Of the former
is about three times the size of the
latter.
The study of mushrooms that grow
wild is a different matter from that Of
the edible sorts, grown from spawn.
The uninitiated would do we'll to- look
up the subject and understand the
terms in common use. For instance;
The "pileus," or ''cap," is the umbrel-
la-like top; the ''stipe" is the stem, or
handle; the "annulus," or ''collar,'' is
the edge or band made by the film that
unites the stipe and outer edges, ma
turing and breaking away as the plant
gains size; the "gills," or ''lamellae,"
are under the cap and radiate, like the
SpOkeS of a wheel; the spores" are

that they are cured anu manipulated
according to the demands Of the for
eign trade. To the general public such
differences are often hardly percepti-
BILE, but in the trade the slightest shade
of color or thickness or body of the
leaf, and often the length is taken into
account. England takes all kinds Of
tobacco, while Austria prefers the
medium colors, with a long, broad,
silky leaf with small fbers. The dark
brown types find the highest favor
among the Italians, and the French
like a still darker leaf, long and
smooth, about the same in quality as
the Italian, but made darker by stem
ming and hard pressure. Spain pre-
fers fine, leafy lug, such as is grown
in Kentucky and Tennessee, while
Portugal requires a medium-sized red
leaf. Belgium, Denmark, and Nor
way use all grades of the bright tobac-
cos, and Holland and Sweden prefer
the dark, heavy types. The low grades
find favor among the Germans, Japan
csc, and Chinese, while the African de-
mands black, oily type.
All of the tobacco sections have dis
played much concern in this exhibit
and have shown much pride in the ar
rangement Of the samples contributed.
Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee,
Kentucky and Maryland contribute to
the display of what is known as the
manufactured and export types, such
as are used for cigarettes, snuff, plug,
chewing and pipe smoking and export
tobaccos. The finer grades, the cigar
types, are represented by samples from
Texas, Connecticut, Florida, New
York, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and
Ohio
The finest types, so far as price is
concerned, are furnished in the form Of
which are equal in quality to the i'm
ported goods. The exhibit will also
be supplemented by tobacco in the va
rious stages of curing, manipulation,
and fermentation, and by literature
relating to tobacco in all it's branches.
The collection will include about one
thousand samples and will be ready
for shipment early in November The
exhibit is to represent the various to-
baccos of the United States, rather
than the display of any particular firm.
With a few exceptions the samples are
in duplicates, the duplicates to be re-
served for the judges Of awards. The
tobacco exhibit will be accompanied by
many photographs, illustrating the to-
bacco industry from seed bed to finish.
Professor Whitney, to whose con-
troll the appropriation by Congress of
$4,000 for tobacco Investigations was
confded, proposes, as work to be car
ried on under that appropriation, to
map the tobacco soils of the United
States, to secure a change in the meth
DDS of supplying tobacco to the 'regie
countries" to investigate the soils and
conditions of growth in Cuba, Sumatra
and other competing countries, to orig
mate improved varieties for the princi-
pal tobacco districts of the United
States, and to investigate and study
curing, manipulation, and fermenta-
