Tobacco Raising
Takes Year-ArOund Care.
Bulgarian British Review, Sofia
Owing to the great interest taken in
ticulars on this product which may in
terest our readers. One of the
main characteristics in the culti-
walton of tobacco is that it Is nee
essary also to cultivate great patience
and great care as regards planting,
growing and preparing it for the mar
ket. In the growing of tobacco, there
is no pause, or Off season, such as in
cereal culture, which, after sowing its
sprout and ripen before harvesting,
after which the yields are placed in
the granaries, and the troubles of the
grower finished.
In the growing of tobacco, there are
no seasons. The year is one long sea-
son, and during its final stages of
preparation great care and patience
must be exercised. Its manipulation,
grading and baling require constant
supervision, especially at the stage of
manipulation. or preparation, in order
that it does not become either too
moist or too desiccated. All this re-
fleets upon the final appearance and
grading of the products offered to
buyers.
The great interest and patience which
Bulgarian tobacco growers exercise Is
due to the general overproduction of
! tobacco in the Near East countries and
the resultant competition, especially for
the higher grades. During the last few
years, buyers desired to purchase only
higher qualities of well manipulated and
preserved tobaccos. The tobacco CO.
operative societies, following in their
steps, now do not accept in their ware
houses tobaccos which are not up to
high standard, nor well preserved.
Exports of tobacco leaf dropped 4,027
tons in 1929, as compared with 1923,
which wildly illustrates the necessity
for improving the quality.

Weekly Herald, GlasgoW-The Brit
ish nation has not taken kindly to the
American accent in the talkies. But
we don't mind-in fact, we keenly APP
preciate the dialect of English, which
America has every right to use. How
ever, in settings which are English, and
when English people are supposed to

| simply makes us roar The French
characters in "Innocents of Paris" are
! to us incredible for the same reason.
They don't "click."
