Nature for its aur- ture, it must be nourished on special diets and selected sali fertilizers. Seeds must be plant- ed in greenhouses (costly struc- tures) early in Apnil; they must be carefully pruned, plucked and subsequently transplanted. The tnansplanting machine is costly and ibesides planting, must water and fertilize each sprout. Ail these aperations require labour at an average minimum cast o! 80 ta 90 cents an bour and a goodly amount is spent before the seed- lings are even bedded in the sandy sailiof a Pine Ridge field.. Priai' ta these operations, the land must have been prepared for tnansplanting. As mucb as 10 tons of manure per acre is put on tobacco fields in fail or win- ter, and before transpianting takes place, a chemnical tertilizer com- posed o! nitragen. phosphorus and patash must be spread over the fields. Each acre takes tram i1, 700 ta 1,800 pounds af this cbem- ical tertilizer which costs the grower tram 30 ta 35 dollars a ton. When the time cames for trans- planting tram the glass-enclosed bouses ta the open field, usuaily in the latter part of May, m'en and machines are brought into play at considenable expense ta the grower. "Setting" the seeds, as transplantation is termed. is donc by a tractai' or borse-drawn machine that inserts plants 20 ta 24 inches apart in long perallel rows with 38 ta 42 inches of free soul between each. Once set propenly and under normal wea- ther conditions, tobacco plants grow lustily and by August they are tail, lush, green and grace- ful. Tbrougbout the growing periad constant cane and cultivation is essentiel. Tobacca plants must be sprayed twice a day in order ta keep down infection if cutworm and like agents o! destruction at- tack the crap. Except for a few plants selected for use as seed, the stalks are "topped" wben about ta flower in order that the full richness and vitality a! the plant will be di- nected into the remaining braed leaves. Harvcst Operations In August. when green tobacco leaves are ready for harvest and subsequent heat treatment in the kilns, the leaves must be picked as they ripen il the best flue- cured tobacco is ta be obtained. Tobacco, unlike corn. is flot sev- ered at the base of the stock. The leaves nearest the ground, known in the industry as "sand leaves," are the first to experience the careful pIuclking of a labour force hired by the grower at between nine and eleven dollars a day in- clusive of board. Usually, work- ers are recruited in teams consist- ing of six primers (pickers); one~ boat driver to lead the horse which draws a stone-boat carrying a box no wider than the distance between the rows: two tiers: tour 4 KINSMEN CLUB DINGO?
