into the scheme OF education The OPP

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 flue 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 Rey dds brands
of high grade, fue cured tobaccos.
