Another good soaking rain came
Monday night which insures the carry
ing of the earlier portions of the crop
through to the harvest, and the later
fields received a benefit in the last two
rainfalls that has advanced their growth
wonderfully. Thus far the absence of
damage either by hail or the hopper
has made growers jubilant and the
prospects for good yield are up to all
expectations. In some fields where to-
bacco has been grown for years the
worm is getting in his work and the
damage is noticeable, but paintings on
new fields are practically free from
this destroyer.
There is added activity on the part
of the buyer to clean up the remaining
portion of the 1918 crop in growers
hands and the price is trifie in ad-
vance of that paid the past few weeks.

LANCASTER, PA, July %, 19l

LANCASTER, "a, July rs, 1919.
Lancaster county's new tobacco crop
has advanced to such a stage that some
topping and suckering will be done be-
fore this week ends. In spite of the
generally fine condition of the tobacco,
there are not few very backward fields
which will make an uneven crop. For
some reason, which not even growers
can explain, fields are poor that should
produce the finest kind of a crop by
reason of perfect cultivation and the
best of fertilizer. Plenty of sunshine
and warm nights are turning the trick
for the crop, which the grower and
packer alike are hoping will be fine
one. Even the green worms are not
very plentiful this year. When these
worms are overabundant, it requires a
lot of work to thin them out, and labor
is very scarce. The tobacco, for some
reason, possesses one defect that could
prove very disastrous if the crop en-
counters dry spell Of any considerable
duration. The plants are reported to
be sitting very shallow in the soil, and
have so far developed very little root.
Should August be dry, and nothing
done to increase the root system, the
plants will suffer severely. To correct
the trouble, growers are urged to in
crease the frequency of their cultiva-
ton.
1t cannot be said that growers are
already discussing the prices of the
new crop, but they are looking ahead
for better prices than they received for
their 1918 tobacco.
