Choosing Variety
Of Leaf Is Big
Task For Grower

What tobacco variety shall l
plant?" is a question which
many Carolina farmers are ask
ing themselves nowadays. Their
problem is complicated by many
factors-differences III soil, cul-
tivation and cropping methods,
and disease infestation on the
land. There is added trouble,
even, in the very fact that so
many different varieties are now
available to growers.
For the puzzled grower, DR.. W.
e. Colwell and Dr.. w. G. Woltz
of the North Carolina Agricul-
tural Experiment Station have
some timely advice: If you don't
know which variety to use, see
your county agent. This state
ment applies particularly to grow
ers who have disease problems.
The disease problem has been
especially troublesome to some
growers, the tobacco research
scientists point out. Wilt-resistant
varieties have been planted on
shank infested land, and vice
versa. Unaware of their error,
growers have sometimes blamed
their crop failures on the variety
planted.
According to Colwell and Woltz
varieties are now available which
are resistant to one OF the fol-
lowing diseases: black shank,
Granville wilt, or black root rot.
However, there is no commercial
variety at present which carries
high resistance to Fusarium wilt
or the root knot organism.
In general, Oxford l and some
of the Vesta strains are recon-
mended for shank infested soils.
The exact choice depends on sew
eral factors. For areas in which
wilt is prevalent, the grower has
but one cholce-Oxford 20; and
for soils infested with black root
rot, Yellow Special and 400 are
the best varieties to use.

Farther" and Further"

@. Please give us comprehensive
discussion of the distinction between
farther and further. In list Of
sentences designed to teach one to
speak distinctly, I found this one:
'The father walked further and
further into the woods
A. Strictly speaking, the words are
neither synonymous nor inter-
changeable. Farther comes from far,
meaning distant" and should apply
only to space or spatlal measure
ment, as: He walked farther and
farther into the wood; your house
is farther from town than mine is;
he lives 2 miles farther up the road.
Further is the comparison Of forth
and should designate an advance
Fment in time or degree, as: He will
consider the mater further; we shall
proceed without further delay; there
are further reasons for this action.
The authorities admit that many
writers do not observe this distinc-
tion and often use further for spa
tial distance. My own feeling is that
the distinction should be preserved,
especially in serious writing and
speech.
A well-known radio M. G. uses the
word ''fartherest" as the superlative
of far. But there is no such degree
as "fartherest." The correct COM
parsons are: far, farther, farthest.
Also, the superlative of further Is
furthest.
A curious error is frequently seen

edited periodicals: Quebec is q
stronghold Of Roman catholicism.
Black-robed nuns and sandaled
friars purposefully trod the streets" /"
'Trod," Of course. is the past tense
Of tread. Nuns and frtars do not
