Growers Warned
Against Wilt In
Another Season

Granville wilt, a disease that costs
North Carolina tobacco growers an
average of $1,O0O,0O0 a year reached
alarming proportions" this season.
According to reports coming TO Dr'
Luther Shaw, extension plant patho-
logist at State College, the wilt mas
done and is doing serious damage
over many sections of the State.
The worst damage has been re-
ported from Fit, Jones, Onslow,
Fender, Craven, Columbus and other
counties.
The disease first attacks the plant
leaves, which droop and wilt. Then
they wrinkle, turn yellow and die.
To identify the wilt from other to-
bacco diseases, Shaw said. growers
cut the stalks and press the ends with
their fingers. If the stalks give off
a dirty yellowish ooze, the disease is
pretty sure to be Granville wilt.
He also stated that this disease
usually kills high percentage Of the
plants in the infested area, while
other diseases kill plants here and
there at random.
There is little that can be done to
help diseased plants this season, he
added, but growers can be careful
not to spread it from infested areas.
1t may be spread on the feet of per-
sons or animals or in the wheels of
wagons or other parts of farm nipple
implements. Therefore one should
be very careful as not to cause the
spread of this tobacco disease.

Cigarettes Lead
In Consumption of
Tobacco Products

Few people realize, when they see
their Uncle Silas bite off a chew of
his favorite brand of tobacco, and
settle back to enjoy it, that last year
ol.5ol,OOO pounds of plug tobacco, s.
$4,000 pounds of twist. and 312OOO0
pounds of fine cut tobacco went into
the mouths and was mangled between
the teeth of American citizens.
In addition, when they see their
Aunt Mirandy drop her lower lip long
enough to allow a dash of snuff there
In, they perhaps do not realize that
36,O96,OO0 pounds of this fine powder
ed tobacco was consumed by people
who swear their oath of allegiance to
Uncle Sam, during the past twelve
months
Figures cleaned by the Dispatch
Reporter from the World Almanac
reveal that there has been consider
able decrease in recenet years in the
U. S. production of cigars, cigarettes
chewing and smoking tobacco.
Last Year.
Last year, the World Almanac re-
veals, 191, 1860 pounds of granulat-
ed tobacco went into the pipes of
American citizens, or into homemade
cigarettes. These figures show that
those who choose to "roll their own"
in America are sadly in the minority
The data compiled by the United
States Commissioner of Internal Re-
venue at Washington, shows that the
American production of cigars Gig
arettes, chewing and smoking to-
bacco and snuff reached a peak for
all-time records in 1917, when 179,413,-
! 600 pounds of tobacco went into the
manufacture of plug tobacco, 1898
600 pounds went into twist, 1885,
600 went into the manufacture Of
fine cut tobacco.
The same year, smoking tobacco
was responsible for the use of 243,586,-
600 pounds, 1857 900 pounds went in
to the manufacture of snuff making
the total consumption of all tobaccos
for that year 49,, 1877 900 pounds.
Steady Climb.
Cigars, large and small, coming I'M
der the same head as the chewing
and smoking tobacco and snuff had
reached a high in 1917 when the pro-
duction totaled 1888, 1873, 900 large Gig
ars and 965,135,OOO small cigars
Cigarette consumption, and produc-
ton has, however, been on a steady
climb since the early days when to-
bacco culture was in it's infancy. In
recent years, production jumped from
1855, SOB, 900 small cigarettes in 1913,
to a total of 114,874 ,217,OOO in 1888 In
1885 the figures totaled 1873, 656, 900, 900
cigarettes.

jumped to S2,247 100000 annually.
AS different feminine styles, in
Guiding fluctuation of the skirt len
gths, varied styles of coiffures, and
other fashions changed with the pass
ing of the years, there was another
style which was becoming even more
pronounced in it's existence among the
members of the feminine sex - the
smoking of cigarettes.
The consumption of cigarettes con-
tinued to increase until in 1880 con
sumption of small cigarettes in TINS
country was totalling $4,000, OOO,OOO
annually.
The fact that the taking up OF tine
habit by the feminine gender was
largely responsible for this increase Is
borne out by the fact that during TINS
period consumption of cigars did not
increase materially.
