Care of Late Tobacco to Get Good Leaf
late in many sections and growers are
experiencing difficulty in harvesting
the crop. The horticultural depart
ment of the College of Agriculture OF
the University of Wisconsin, offers
some timely suggestions on methods
of handling late crops. "The crop
should not be harvested in a green
condition" writes the tobacco expert
at the college at Madison, except as
a last resort to save it from heavy
frost Even then it is doubtful wheth-
er the practice is advisable in many
cases.
By proper handling late fields may
be considerably improved in market
able quality. The value of the crop
depends largely upon the weather but
the following suggestions will materi
ally benefit many growers, if carefully
followed:
stop cultivating early" write the
authorities. Stirring of the soil will
lengthen the life of the plant and I'M
der no condition should it be cult
waited after it tops out. This may
start a second growth which will in
ture the quality of the entire crop.
"Top early and low AS soon as
buds appear which may be pinched
between thumb and fore-fnger, take
them Off This is especially necessary
with late crops and low topping does
not materially decrease the yield
Sucker the plants twice. When
the suckers near the top are three OF
four inches long, they should be bro
ken off; then a couple of days before
harvest, sucker the plants again down
to the bottom if necessary"
