sad off Sulk
Capt. W. H. Snow, in Danville Tobacco
Journal.
Editor Southern Tobacco
Few men will be prepared to be-
when told all the evils that can
lie traced directly to the pernicious
and wasteful way of curing tobacco
on the stalk. We have said before
and here repeat that to the foolish
system curing on the stalk can
l. traced nearly all the. unsound or
funked tobacco found on our markets;
a vast and useless consumption of
fuel; the building of countless
of curing barns, and the waste
of at least one-third of the entire
crop that is grown in fields. It
causes the construction of the huge
prize houses, with all the retrying
paraphernalia that cost vast sums of
money and adds to insurance
and expenses in countless ways.
Mr. Editor, let us look into the
matter and make an itemized account
against the tobacco stalk, and foot
up the figures and we how much j
longer we can afford to keep the stalk
at the double duty of both growing
and curing tobacco.
1st. The waste or bottom leaves
that of necessity fro to waste in the
. cure equal of
the stalk. This subject has been
discussed the Little
more need be said to convince any
reasonable man that at the lowest
estimate one-third can be added to
I hi- value of an acre tobacco if the
leaves are cured as they ripen when I
we prime top at ten leaves. Hut
if we top higher than ten leaves,
more than is added CO the
crop. the bottom leaves when
properly cured are quite as I
and in as good demand as any part
of the crop no one will deny. In
first item, then, we charge up to
the tobacco stalk a clear loss of one
third of each crop tobacco grown.
The crop of 1889 estimate is
pounds; one third of this amount
is in round numbers
pounds; ten cents per pound
loss on the crop to the tanners was
in one year to the debit of
the stalk cure.
It is the universal testimony that
a common log barn will cure
pounds with two of wood on
the stalk. It is also admitted that
the same barn will cure twice the
amount of tobacco with one-half the
fuel without the stalk. The excess
of fuel used in curing one-half of
the crop of 1889 above what would
be required to cure the leaf foots up
which must be charged up I
to the debit side of the stalk cure.
We have now wasted one-third of j
our crop and burned H,
worth .-l wood, to say nothing of the
barn burnt and charged
to stalk cure on the debit
side in two items.
We will now charge the loss of
per cent, in weight on every pound
of tobacco cured on the stalk. By
this we mean to say that every leaf
of tobacco is robbed by the stalk
equal to per cent, of its legitimate
weight by being cured on the stalk.
There are some who dispute this,
but to such we will only say let the
scales decide the question. Science
and philosophy is all on one side of
the leaf cure, and we arc happy to
say that the arc backing our
science in every test. We have to
charge up to the stalk in this one
item at ten cents per
pound making in three items
We now come to one more item,
Mr. Editor. We deliberately charge
to the mistaken policy of curing to-
on the stalk all the funky and
unsound tobacco that is found on our
markets. Well, how much is
sound No man can tell. The
tor of the Southern Tobacconist in an
editorial last April stated that
per cent, of all offerings in the
dark tobacco sections were unsound
by reason of warm, damp weather.
Well, why not lay it to damp weather
instead of charging it up to the stalk
Plainly, if the tobacco had been
stripped before caring it would have
been balked so compactly that it
would be out of the power damp
weather to do it harm. The excess
of wood we consumed was used to
kill out the stalk. We killed
tobacco at same lime, we melted
the wax; we baked the vegetable
we rendered the leaf power-
less to resist moisture, and when it
was reining in order for stripping it
took in too much water, and when
bulked it got How much
damage no man can tell. The dam-
age will foot millions of dollars.
The city of Danville has at least
ten acres covered with
houses, together with not less than
one hundred acres of tobacco rehung
to dry out the water from tobacco
that was over-cured and too much
ordered while hanging to the stalk on
