le last fifty years:

In 1899 Connecticut ranked eleventh
in quantity produced and first in
average yield per acre. The average
yield for the United States was 7O2
pounds. For Connecticut in the same
year it was l, 402 pounds, and in 1889,
1,673 pounds. Connecticut will, there
fore, IN all probability rank first in
average yield, as in the quality Of its
production.
The average price of Connecticut to-
baccC in 1899 was 1872 cents per pound
The tobacco grown in the state is
largely confined to the grades used
for cigar wrappers and binders. The
of light wrappers, have an average
selling price of from As to So cents a
pound. The dark wrapper grades are
worth from II to 20 cents per pound,
and the lower grades command lower
prices.
Some years ago when the prevailing
demand was for strong cigars with
dark wrappers, tobacco was grown as a
rule on the heavy soil and meadow
land of the Connecticut valley. With
a change in popular taste, which now
calls for light wrappers and mild
smoking tobacco, the heavier soil has
been largely abandoned for the light,
alluvial, sandy terraces and plains
| bordering on the Connecticut river,
which thirty years ago were largely
waste lands.
The two leading varieties furnish
the greater portion of the tobacco
grown in the state. They are, in the
order OF their Importance, Connecticut
broadleaf and Connecticut IIavan;
Seedleaf. The larger part of the first
named variety is raised in Hartford
county, east of the Connecticut river
while the Havana seedleaf is grown
principally in the the western portion
of the Connecticut valley.
Tobacco was grown on 2,9O0 farms, 0
which 528 contain less than 20 acre
each; 1,5l6, from 20 to 80 acres; $50
from 100 to 259 acres, and 1O5, 26O acre

GOOD PRICES PAID FOR TOBACCO CAUSE
OF PROSPERITY AMONMG FARMERS o F
HOUSATONIC VALLEY.
The tobacco crop at 12c, 1oc, l6c and
1Sc pound, the prices that have ruled
the last few years in the HousatOnic
valley, is a money making crop; there
is no doubt about this fact. That the
substantial prices paid are the cause
of good feeling among the farmers is
substantiated by the large number of
new tobacco buildings erected the last
year, and general improvements made
on farm buildings. More new tobacco
buildings have been erected the last
year than in any previous year in the
last Is. In this connection the United
States Census Bureau has completed a
bulletin upon the agricultural inter-
ests of Connecticut. in which consider
able space is devoved to the tobacco
raising industry, which easily leads all
others in this state;
''The total production of tobacco in
Connecticut during the census year
was 16,930,77O pounds, having value

duced on 10, l2O acres, divided by coun-

With regard to the development of
the tobacco raising industry, the
bulletin says:
"As early as 1910 the colonists dis
covered that the soil and climate of
the Connecticut and Housa tonic val
leys were peculiarly adapted to the
successful cultiva ton of tobacco. This
discovery was one of the factors lead
| ing to the emigration from MaSSachu
sets and the settlement of Connecti-
cut in the seventeenth century. The
use of tobacco as medium Of exchange
at that time, and the facility with
which it has always been convertible
into cash, have made this product
favorite with farmers possessing land
suited to it's growth. Most of the good
tobacco land is found in Hartford
county, which, in 1899, produced 500
per cent of the tobacco raised in the
state, and over One-half of that grown
in the six New New England states.
The land devoted to it's culture in
Connecticut in the same year was only
10, 12O acres, less than per cent of the
area of all reported crops, yet it
brought to the producers the sum of
So, GA, OPP, or 1879 per cent of the gross
income. The average value per acre
of the crop was s303.76, which was
greater than that of any other product
except flowers grown in greenhouses.
| While tobacco was grown during the
census year on 1900 farms, in 1860 it
was the principal source of income,
although it covered but 1O,120 acres
out of 1873, Ol3 embraced within the So
called tobacco farms The value of
these farms was $40, 1856, 800, or about
9 per cent of the value of the agri-
cultural lands of the state. The aver
age value of the tobacco farms was as
follows: Land, s., 1888; buildings, S2,378;
implements and machinery, 1884; live
stock, S4O2; annual product, $1,S42.
The average acreage of the tobacco
farms of the state was 67.9 acres.
BY far the most valuable cash crop
in Connecticut is tobacco. Nearly the
entire tobacco growing area is located
in the Connecticut and HOusatOnic
valleys. The following table presents,
so far as can be shown by census
figures, the statistics of the crop for
