A BETTER TYPE.
Mr. L Gib Some Good
In this week's Progressive
Farmer Mr- O. L. Joyner, of
Greenville, who is admittedly an
authority on tobacco, makes
interesting comment on the
culture of tobacco in
North
Messrs. For the last
few years it ha, been perfectly
apparent to every close observer
of the sales of tobacco on the
western North Carolina markets
that thin white tobacco was
growing less less in demand.
During the tint few years
of tobacco culture in this
section of the state, white, or
is known as men colored
tobacco, was in greatest demand
and told for fancy prices,
for some cause the demand for

from this type of leaf to
drop off. In the meantime,
stimulated by the higher price
of white tobacco, farmers
ed their chief attention to the
production of this type of tobacco,
with the res-ult that more of this
type of tobacco made than
there was demand for and con-
the price fell off.
Farmers learned from expert
that the highest
white tobacco was by
priming off the tobacco early and
curing color which
changed after lying in bulk a
few weeks to a very beautiful
light color. This method was
practiced to such an extent that
since 1900, although the crop is
now not transplanted much, if
any, earlier than it then,
yet it is taken the and

unprofitable crop.

Tobacco is selling much better
now on the Kinston market than
was the case at the beginning of
the season on August 1st.
There is not so much change in
sand lugs, but the better grades
are now freely marketed and
while possibly the sum realized
is not so great, in some cases, as
in former years, farmers are
generally satisfied and in some
cases gratified at the outcome.
