TOBACCO EXPERIMENTS
Comprehensive Tests to be Made in LIGHT and Dark
Belts.

ARRANGEMENTS have been made 10y
which cooperative Investigations on
tobacco will be- conducted 10y the Nir-
ginia Agricultural Experiment Station
and the Bureau Ol Soils. /. ;. Depart
ment OF Agriculture. Experiments will
be- conducted in the dark tobacco belt
near AppOmattoX and in the light
tobacco belt near Chatham. Eachparty
to this agreement will have representa-
tive located at each Station.
II is well understood that the Use oi
green crops oi "a leguminOus nature Tor
soil enrichment can be- used freely in the
dark tobacco belt; whereas, this practice
has not been regarded with favor IN the
light tobacco belt. Naturally, at Apo
mattOx the questions being studied.
therefore. are how To iertllize the SOL So
"a to obtain the largest yields Ot high
grade dark tobacco through the Use Of
green crops and cOmmerclal fertilizers.
Home mixtures are also being compared
with ready mixed fertilizers. The advis-
ability Uf using lime is receiving cOnsld-
Grafton, while methods of handling and
curing have not been overlooked.
The work in the light tobacco area
commences this spring and three acres OF
ground will be- used tie first year. The
questions being studied in the light to-
bacco belt are, to determine if level cult
vatiOn will not be- as satisfactory as the
hill or ridge system now followed: the
best number OF plants to use per acre;
the effect of various selections on the
Weld Of tobacco; the best varieties ot to-
bacco to use; the effect OF different iertll-
izer combinations; the proper amount oi
fertilizer to Use; the relation between
ready mixed and home mixed fertillzers;
the effect of using lime inconnectiOn with
commercial fertilizer; the effect OF using
fertilizer in which the nitrogen Is quickly
and slowly available; studies in curing
tobacco.
1t will be- seen that extensive investi-
cations for the benefit of the tobacco
growers have been inaugurated, ana
through the agreement reached. several
thousand dollars will be- spent IN this
State. As the value Of the tobacco crop
i'm Virginia approximates more than
$4,000. 600, and practically no lnyesti-
cations have been made with tobacco
the Importance Of the present series oi IN
vestigatiOns become apparent. The IN
of these experiments, II Is be
lieved. marks n new era in tobacco culti-
walton in the State.

Notwithstanding Or. llartman's busy
professional career, he still continues to
