fornia. Joe is always looking out for the good of this valley and makes the Allowing statement in regard to to- bacco growing which he thinks is the best one season crop that can be raised: While I was in Dlnuba, Cal, much interest was aroused by large tobacco manufacturers who claim that any country with climate like that of southern alifornia can grow a leaf as good and fine as any grown in Turkey the home of the famous Turkish aro- ma The American Tobacco Co. has been experimenting in the San Joaquin valley for years and has planted over $50 acres of this leaf which is so val uable in the manufacturing of high priced cigarettes. The Turkish tobac- co is all controlled by a French firm which receives a tribute as high as fifteen cents per pound on all that they do not consume, thus making cigarettes much higher in price than before this monopoly. This crop can be grown on land too poor for fruit trees and will prduce at the rate of s400 to $500 per acre net to the grower. The American Tobacco a., will buy all that is grown of this quality. I will plant some as soon as 1 can make arrangements"
