dug up and pulverized.
Six feet is a convenient width of bed; 80 feet in
length should be allowed for each acre The bed
should be boxed in with inch boards with dirt

logs are sometimes used for this purpose. A
teaspoonful of seed is the proper amount for

Burley Tobacco { culture

Burey tobacco fits a niche in the crop systems
of many successful farmer; it dominates the en-
tire farm scheme of many unsuccessful ones and
rotation machinery. It's good crop for farmers
who understand it, who grow it on an acre or two
sandwiched between many acres of Red clover,
grass and grain crops to be fed to good livestock;
it is dangerous crop for farmers who do not know
this relation to disregard it.
To grow a paying crop Of tobacco requires a
fertile soil; this crop alone does not enrich, it i'm
poverishes. Most soils are poor. They need lime,
clover and manure; to lime enough land, to grow
enough clover, grass and grin to feed enough
stock to keep up enough fertility, requires most

TOPPING ID SUCKERING

Tobacco must be topd. Experience is requir
ed and no rule of thur can be given. The grow
err must be able to see the young plant what it
will be at maturity. Houst judge each plant sep
aratey, it's vigor as acted by soil and weather
conditions, its stage Growth, etc. Uneven top
ping makes irregular oening which adds to the
labor of harvesting. e plants must be topped
before the stalk hards, which begins when
blooming begins. Usuy IA to 16 leaves are left
on each plant, though number may vary from
10 to 70 cd. The sucke in the crotch of the leaf
stems must be remol as they appear. The

BRITISH EXPANSION
In ASIA TO END
Curzon Declares Future Policy Will Be
Along Lines of Evolution and Not
Absorption.
fsy Associated Press,

London, Oct. 29.-The expansion OF
the British Empire in Central Asia is
! at an end, and rightly so, Earl Curzon
secretary of state for foreign affairs
told the Central Asian Society in an,
address last night
The function of Great Britain in the
future, he added, was not to absorb
territory there, but to give security
and to arrange that the evolution to a
different and higher state of things
should be easy.
The great bulk of Central Asia, he
said, had been thrown into the vortex
OF European politics. The Russian EN-
pire. which Englishmen have regard
ed with apprehension, had been for the
moment obliterated from the scene
China was in the throes of military
crisis, the upshot OF which no one
could foresee. Afghanistan had ac-
quired something like independence.
All India was seething with agita-
ton and trying to establish some new
form of government. In Thibet the Bri-
fish had been welcomed as friends.
Lord CurZon expressed the hope that
the Persian government and parlia-
ment would ratify the Anglo Persian
agreement, and that this would insure
the integrity and independence of that
country.
He advocated setting up an Arab
form of the administration in Mesopo-
tarnia and said Sir Percy Cox had gone
out to assist in carrying on that work
He hoped for some form of Arabian
unity which would crafty the ambi
tions of the Arabe.
In Afghanistan there was serious
trouble and commotion. The secretary
said he knew Of no country in Central
Asia where the bolsheviki had greater
hopes of causing trouble for Great
Britain, yet he regarded the interests
of Afghanistan as identical with those
of Great Britain. 1t might take years
before the commotion in Asia sub
sided. and no one should suppose that
the work of Englishmen in those coun-
tries was over
