are advantages for and against prim-
but all resort to
out the bud and adjacent small
leaves with the thumb and linger.
Some contend that pulling off the
lower leaves saps the plants and re-
growth, if the weather is dry.
That permitting lower leaves lo
remain on the stalk protects the up-
per ones from sand and grit, makes
them cleaner and therefore more
able. Sand grit are the terror of
the tobacco buyer. On the other hand
it s contended by some that by
off the lower leaves, which are
generally useless, the remaining leaves
receive more nutriment and contain
more wax, oil and gum, and that the
lower leaves harbor worms and make
the worming process more tedious.
It is best to wait until a
number of plants begin to but-on
for seed before commencing to top.
Topping should be the work
and trusty who
can top, leaving any required number
of leaves on plant without counting.
The secret of longer a secret
to the that the topper
soon learns to know that counting the
bottom leaf and the leaf that hangs
over it in the third tier going upward
make nine leaves, including both top
bottom leaves. Fixing this in his
mind, the topper has only to add lo
or deduct from this index leaf mark
nine, to leave any desired number
of leaves on each plant with certainty
and without counting. Young man,
if don't know how, get some old
to show you. Topping, you
will find, is a slow business if you
have to count the leaves on all the
plants lopped. If the plants are not

ward for the leaf in the third tier,
which hangs over it, to catch the cue
as If priming is done don't
err in pulling off too many leaves.
No regular rule can be given, so the
planter most judge for himself. The
reason given for waiting until many-
plants are ready to be topped is
mainly that more plants may ripen
together and be ready for the knife
at the same time. This is an ad-
vantage that applies with strong
force to all tobacco intended for flue
curing.
The number of leaves to be left on
each plant varies according to the
time toe work is done early or late

Do not be in a hurry to begin cut-

and enough fully and uniformly ripe

handle and extended an inch along

over all other modes of curing
tobacco, is so safe, if properly con-
and free from smoke, that
when its merits become better known
it will come into general use and
all other modes.
The first step in coring is called the
steaming or process. Me-
tobacco will require from twenty
four to thirty hours steaming at about
ninety degrees to yellow sufficiently; j
but tobacco with more or less sap,
larger or smaller, will a longer
or shorter time to yellow. Here the i
of the curer must be his
guide. Inexperienced planters would
do well to procure the services of an
expert curer, if they have tobacco
suitable for fine yellow. The planter
saves in value of bis crop
many times the money paid to the
curer, and besides, by close attention,
he may learn in one season to cure
well himself. Theory alone, however
good, and directions, however minute

It is well to slate that there is so
great a difference in the character of
tobacco grown in different localities,
that no rule can given for the
lowing process, applicable to all.
The tobacco of middle and western
North Carolina, will yellow much
less lime than grown in middle
Virginia. Then again, tobacco will
bear higher temperature in the
lowing process during some years
than in others. Notably the season
; of 1881, was so dry and held so little
I sap when ripe, that many com-
yellowing at degrees, and
I had the leaf in hours. But
this is exceptional, and for general
practice would spoil both color and
tobacco.
The season, therefore, it must be
borne in mind, greatly determines
the amount of beat tobacco will re-
quire to be yellowed and cured.
Some of the patented flues are so
constructed heal is easily
controlled, and the tobacco smoked
or or both, as may be
in the yellowing stage. Some
tobacco will require neither to yellow
right, while some other will dry
green or red without yellowing,
smoke or steam be not used to assist
the yellowing process. Smoke and
heat will facilitate the yellowing of
thin poor tobacco, holding very little
sap. Wetting the barn floor from
time to lime will assist in yellowing
tobacco. Then there is an occasion
barn tobacco that defies all the
known modes and appliances to el-
low or cure bright.
But for all practical purposes,
whenever the curer has mastered a
knowledge of the effects of too much
or too heat, as evidenced in the
color of tobacco, clearly described
heretofore, he possesses a k-v to
solve the problem in the
science of curing tobacco. By close
observation this may soon b.-
learned then success is easy.
After curing, as soon as the
co is sufficiently soft to move, you
may run it up in the roof of th , barn

The curing process for yellow to-
as heretofore laid down, was
first published in the year 1871, and
was the systematic treatise
given to the public on the difficult
art of curing yellow tobacco; and it
has remained substantially unaltered
through six editions of the pamphlet,
aggregating largely over
copies. Thousands in several States
hove taken it for their guide and
been enabled to learn to cure success-
fully, without any other assistance.
But the yellow tobacco industry
has greatly progressed and extended
during the past decade, and new-
light has come through experience to
further perfect the art of curing.
The following is as the latest
improvements in curing

and after warming up the barn for
two or three hours, at a temperature
of about degrees, advance the heat
rapidly up to as

and then by drawing the flies and
turning the dampers, cut off heat

you intend to sell in winter order

that it does not heat. If bulk
becomes warm it must be broken up,

A LIGHT IN THE
The on Which the W.-II Known
Sony
Few are the persons who
have not one time or the other heard
the Sunday school song, Light in
the am mistaken,
gays a Times writer, it is
founded a story told upon the
little island of but which might
easily have its exact on i
most any seashore where a mother's
heart heats with yearning love for her
sailor son and keeps its fond promise
from night to light.
the simple Usher folks on the j
island lived a woman and her son. He ;
was her only child, the pride of her j
heart as well as the source of constant ;
dread, for the boy loved the sea as his
father before had loved it. nothing
gave him so much pleasure as to watch
the incoming tide tumble its curling
waves or the sands. No sooner was
he strong enough to wield an oar
steer a boat than he joined the men in
their fishing expeditions.
The mother, with all her and
the fate of a long line of in her
mind, yet would not have had it other-
wise, for it would have been deemed
dishonor among the hardy coasters to
have kept the boy at home or seat him
safely at work farmer. What-
ever the dangers they must be faced
for the sake of family pride. He was a
great favorite among the
folk and with the sailors, and when at
last his 13th year came around he
obtained the consent of his mother to
go to sea ho easily found a good ship
and captain. Then there was parting,
and tears shed by the mother, while
ho looked forward Into the great, wide
world with all the joyous eagerness of
a boy. Bat with her last blessing the
widowed mother promised that every
night a light should bum in the sea-
ward window of her cottage to light
him homeward and to show that
she still lived, awaiting his return.
The ship sailed. Six month.- passed
sailors dropped into the village and
told how she hail been spoken and all
was well, and the neighbors came to the
cottage and told the pleasant news to
the waiting mother, who nightly
the candle, lit it and set it in the
window to make a bright path up the
sands. Again six months elapsed, and
other sailors arrived from far oil lands,
but they had no news to tell of the
ship. A great storm had happened
and she was overdue. She might yet
make port, the people shook
their heads carried no tales to the
willow, whose candle burned brightly
every night and cast long streamers of
light out upon the sea. Another year
but the sailors going or coming
brought no news of the -hip. the
neighbors whispered apart and shook
their heads whenever any one spoke of
the widow's son. but no one was cruel
enough to cut the slender threads
which held the anchor of her hope.
And thus the light continued to glow
out toward the sea at every gloaming
and burned steadily through every
night.
Years came and went. The children
who had played with the sailor lad
had grown to be men and women, her
own head had been silvered with age.
her form was bowed, yet no one dared
to cut the cables of tier hope. Tender
words cheered her and tender hands
smoothed the way for her as she pa-
waited for the coining if
her fair haired hoy, and every
the glow of her streamed out to
seaward and the story of the
heart waiting at
How many years did hub watch and
wait I do not know. Hut one day,
at eventide, there was no gleaming
patch of light across the sands. The
window remained dark, and the
beacon failed the and
when wondered and went to the
cottage they found that the mother's
soul had gone out to seek the son.
