In order TO subdue and subjugate
the sassy fish the author carried

FLUE CURING IMPROVES TOBACCOLIKE
ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE
FIue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste
Found In Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger

There are three ways used by far
mers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and fue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called fue cured. In fue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
fues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process developes in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy fue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other Reynolds brands
OF high grade, fuei cured tobaccos.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1906-11-02

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
bacco is fue cured, but the inside is
filled with cheap, fimsy, heavily
sweetened air cured tobacco; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
such tobacco.
Expert tests prove that this fue
cured tobacco, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind,
and has a wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chewers. If the
kind Of tobacco yOW are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit of
expectorating, stop fooling yourself
and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chew
ers formerly bought costing from 75c.
to $I.oo per pound; Schnapps is sold
at soc. per pound in sc, cuts, strictly
10 and IS cent plugs.

a SPRAYING CALENDAR.

The Horticultural Department OF
the Iowa State College at the Expert
ment Station has just issued an up-to-
date Spraying CALENDAR, which is OF
the utmost Importance to the Horti-
culturists and fruit growers of the
state. This Calendar is prepared in
Bulletin form and deals rather more
exhaustively than usual with the gen.
eral treatment to We followed in spray
ing apples, plums, grapes, cherries,
small fruit and vegetables.
Several pages are devoted to the
different spraying mixtures, and care
full directions are given as to their
preparation.
In short introduction Prof. S. A.
Beach calls attention to the absolute
necessity of every Iruit grower IN
Iowa spraying his orchard trees.
1t is evident from the keen demand
for former Spraying Calendars of TINS
Station that the farmers and horticul-
turists of Iowa are awakenin5 to this
necessity.
The Bulletin may be obtained by
any resident of the state, without
charge, by applying to G. F. Curtlss,
Director Of the Experiment Station,

our INDUSTRIAL TRANSITION.

Charles NJ. Harvey, writing in the
May number Of Appleton's Magazine,
is authority for the statement that
fright before our eyes, although we
may overlook the fact, the United
States is being transformed from an
agricultural country into vast indus
trial community, and is thus radically
changing its relations to the world
Mr.. Harvey goes on to show, by citing
many statistics, that our exports in ag-
riculture are steadily decreasing year
by year. In 1905 they were the small
est since 1872. On the other hand
the exports manufactures are increas-
ing to such an extraordinary extent
that noted European statesmen have
declared that the Old World is in dan
ger of being thrown into financial and
industrial subordination to the Ameri-
can Republic. One reason for the de-
cline in agricultural exports, Mr.. Har-
vey says, is because our population
grows at the rate o r1,500,000 a var
thereby increasing the home demand
for food, and there is no correspond
ing expansion in the supply. Thirty
three per cent of our population lived
in towns in 1900, and thirty-five per
cent in 1905. This is one Of the re-
suits Of the swing from agriculture
to the general industrial activities.
