81 consider that we have achieved a
remarkable success and that we have
demonstrated to the satisfaction OF the
most skeptical the immense practical
benefits to be derived from the intelIl-
gent application of scientific knowl-
edge to the simplest agricultural sub
ieCts," said the Secretary of Agrlcul-
ture, when | called on him Saturday.
Mr.. Wilson had before him telegram
from Prof Whitney, Chief of the Bu-
reau of Soils, giving the prices at which
shade grown Sumatra tobacco. raised
under tie supervision of the Bureau OF
Soils, has sold at public sale. ave have
long known that Prof. Whitney's ex-
periments had proved successful, con-
tlnued The Secretary, "but we realized
that tie actual demonstration would
come when the tobacco, grown IN ac-
cordance with our system, came to be
sold under the hammer. The crop av-
eraged $l25 per pound, as against an
average slightly under rs cents which
the native Connecticut tobacco has
brought. The crop produced an aver
age of l 1000 lbs. per acre the profit was
81 per pound, net. We consume 80,
100000 worth of this wrapper tobacco
annually. 1t will, therefore, require
that bat 5000 acres be devoted to this
variety of tobacco and the saving to the
country of money, formerly spent out
side its limits, will amount TO Sc 600
900. The whole credit Of this expert
ment belongs to Prof. Whitney and his
system Of soil survey by which it was
discovered thai there existed in the Con
necticut valley soil precisely like the
Sumatra soil on which has been grown
for the years the wrapper tobacco we
have imported.
"But our work is just begun. We
now import filler tobacco to the amount
of S6,OOO,000 annually. Our soil sur
veyors are searching for localities which
will grow that and believe they have
found the proper soil in sections of
Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina
aud Texas. In few years | believe we
will be able to grow at home $l4 ,0OO,-
900 worth of tobacco which we formerly
imported, and at an extremely hand
some profit to the growed. If we could
pursuade Congress to appropriate SUI
icient funds to carry on this work on
q scale commensurate with it's import
ance we would be able to make more
rapid progress but we have reason to
feel well satisfied at our progress so far
While Secretary Wilson gives to Prof
Whitney all the credit for the discov-
cry of the "Sumatra soil" etc., it Is
only fair to say that Prof. Whitney mas
received every encouragement from the
Secretary, who Immediately grasped
The scope and Importance Of the coil
survey and under whose protection the
former Division of Soils has become a
bureau with largely extended facilities.
