"Oui, Monsieur coontered the

SOUNDS WARNING
FOR SOUTH IN
TOBACCOCULTURE

the neglect neglect of other t0 crops is not
justified by the present tobacco
situation, which the department of
agriculture, in a statement issued
this week, describes as difficult. In
territory where tobacco is a new
crop, recently introduced to replace
cotton under boll-weevil conditions,
as in portions of South Carolina and
Georgia, the best interests of the
to lie in the development of safe
and well-diversified system of farm
ing rather than to plunge from the
uncertainty of cotton production
into the possibly still greater uncer-
tainty of tobacco production under
existing conditions. While it is i'm
possible, the statement declares, to
arrive at the quantity of tobacco
Europe will be prepared to purchase
during the next year or two. it
seems likely that any considerable
increase over the LOIS crop in the
flue-cured section would be follow
ed by q decline in market prices.
The largest crop of tobacco the
marketed, and while prevailing mar
ket prices are very high for some
of the leading types, such abnormal
prices are said to be due primarily
points out that the country has
| grown three large crops OF tobacco
in succession, with no decided
shortage in production OF any of the
leading types.
ures, exports of leaf tobacco we're
somewhat above normal in 1916,
much below normal in 1917, and
still below the average in 1918,
years being approximately 100000
600 pounds as against an average
of 416,000,000 pounds for the three
years ending with 1913.
The quantity OF leaf tobacco an
| nually consumed in domestic manu-
facture during the last three years
shows an increase of about 100, 000,-
/ 600 pounds over the preceding
! period, due largely to d decided pro-
| gressive increase in the manufac-
ent indications are that no more to-
| baccO was consumed in domestic
manufacture in 1918 than in the
, preceding year.
hands Of dealers and manufacturers
as of January 1st, are reported as
about 1926, 900, 900 pounds for all
! types. a considerable increase over
| the figures of previous years.
With q 1918 crop estimated at L.
| $40, 100000 pounds, a domestic con-
| sumption of about 20,000,000
pounds, leaving a large surplus
over prewar export requirements,
and with stocks of leaf tobacco in
| turers above the normal, it seems
| obvious, says the department, that
| ordinarily there would be a tendency
| toward lower prices. Unfortunately
| there appears to be no means avail
able at this time for arriving at the
European requirements for leaf to-
bacco and it's products during the
next year. Cigar Leaf, practically

Cause of Soil Acidity and Ways the

from the soil is caused b. teaching.
In the formation of soil from rocks
the soil always acquires lime. When
ever the rainfall is sufficient, the
line is generally washed out of the
soil into streams and away to the
ocean. Lime, then, does not accu-
mulate in soils in humid areas, but
in regions Of little rainfall it does
collect and so is present to neutral

vclop through the decay of organic

conditions prevail such as the exist
