Tobacco in Indiana.

According to w. S. Blatchley,
state geologist, Kentucky grow
crs of Burnley tobacco have turned
their attention to the Indiana to-
.baccO have turned their att milton
to the Indiana tobacco belt and
will probably begin its develop
ment within the near future. Mr..
Blatchley has been consulted by
the growers concerning the soil
OF the belt, its etXent and its de-
velopment as a tobacco field. Mt.
BlatchleV has recently completed
a soil survey of a large part OF
the tract. and has other surveys
under way.
The tobacco belt in this state,
according to Mr.. Blatchley, eX-
tends along the line of the out
cropping of the. Mitchell lime
stone. from the Ohio river, in
Floyd county. in a northwesterly
direction TO the northwest corner
OF Putnam county, passing
through Putnam, Owen, Monroe
Lawrence, Orange, Washington
Crawford, Harrison and Floyd
counties.
The soil of the belt said Mr.
Bratchley, lis distinguished from
the aIluyia1 or drift soils. i'm that
it has besn formed by decompo-
sition of the Mitchell limestone
1t is the same as that of the Bur,
ley fields OF Kentucky, and, IL
my opinion, is as well suited tC
tobacco growing as that across
the Ohio river. TIL, best part o
the field perhaps, is to be founC
