FLUECURING IMPR0VEST0BACC0LIKE
ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE
FIue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste
Found In Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger

Thereare three ways usedlby farm
ers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and hue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery andimproved way
is called fue cured. In ~hue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
iues in houses especially bull TO re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process develops in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Sehnapps tobacco, Just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections Of this ripe,
juicy aue cured leaf. grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the

On the largest scale. the publicity
bureau displayed It's activities last
winter, in the endeavor OF a combi-
nation OF the great railroads OF the
country to dam. by this means. the
tide OF popular feeling in favor OF
stringent rate regulation. II bent
itself to gaining for those Senators
who stood out at first against all
legislation and later for such a bill
as would effect the smallest degree

support as might be inferred from
stacks of newspaper clippings favor
able to their position. BY this
means, too timid legislators, who
without some sign OF backing in the
press. would fear to follow their in
clinations to stand by the railroad
side OF the controversy. might have
their backbone strengthened, and
lukewarm opponents be won over OIL
reduced TO non-activity. The game
played against the unorganized pub
