The Agricultural Departments Novel
Device For Testing Tobacco.

/ The Agricultural Depa rtment's Novel
/ Device For Testing Tobacco.
Smoking from six to eight cigars, in
Guiding everything from a clear Ha-
vana grown in Connecticut to a Pitts
| burg .'stogie,' at one and the same
| time is a feat which has been accom-
plished at the department OF agricul-
ture every day.
The officials wanted to make an in
vestigation of the burning qualities of
different tobaccos and were unable to
get smoke squad like Chemist
Wiley's poison squad SO the trick Is
being done by specially invented ma
chine. This machine is f'fted up with
number of glass tubes, into which tit
cigars, and the draft is given by Il
vacuum arrangement caused by jet
of water. The machine has not yet
been sufficiently perfected TO blow
rings" or do other fancy stunts, but ii
fills the requirements of the inyesti-
gators.
Samples of tobacco are sent to the
department, where. in a specially con-
structed room, they are kept at an
even temperature and moisture and
made up into cigars for the machine.
The cigar is then fed to the machine.
and the burning is noted. Should the
cigar burn evenly, without taking or
other Objectionable features, the seed
from the particular plant receives Il !
favorable report. Should the cigar
prove to be of the ''fireproof' variety
the seed is recommended for the fur
mace.
The official in charge of the expert |
ments has adopted a method of test
ing wrapper leaf grown in the United |
States. This should be completely con-
sumed in the burning. The wrapper |
leaf is placed on a cigar shaped mold |
and lighted, and if it burns properly |
the seeds from the plant from which |
the leaf was taken are carefully laid |
aside for use next year.
BY this method of selection and elm
ination the officials expect materially |
to improve the quality of tobacco and
TO reduce to a minimum the growers
loss on unstable tobacco leaf
