CHASING WEED
OF IMPORTANCE
To the Growers. Certain to In
crease the Average Paid on
the Loose Leaf Floors.
CAN'T TAKE TOO MUCH CARE.

One thing that the tobacco growers
have yet to learn, is the chasing the
weed before placing it on sale.
Chiefly the reason that such low aver.
ages are obtained by great many
growers, is that they exercise so little
judgment in preparing their crops for
sale. Tobacco is sold on its types as
much as any other commodity that we
produce, and why growers will not spend
more time and thought in CHASING their
tobacco that they have spent months in
producing, is vet to be solved.
