Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tobacco Culture in Connecticut At the beginning of the nineteenth century the increasing popularity of cigars and the introduction of the Broadleaf tobacco induced a heavy expansion of acreage, but since no official statistics were kept, the extent of the increase cannot be stated. The first official figures which Show the size of the industry in the state are in the Federal Census of 1840. According to this, there were pounds of tobacco raised in New England in 1839. Assuming a yield of pounds to the acre, which was the average annual yield of the first two decades for which we have acreage records, we may estimate that only about 380 acres were planted to tobacco in Connecticut and Massachusetts in 1839. In 1849 production had increased to pounds. The next decade saw tremendous gain so that there Was more than six times as much tobacco produced in 1859 as in 1849 - about acres. This wave of expansion continued until after the Civil War. Beginning with 1862 there are official records showing the number of acres of tobacco cultivated, as well as the pounds produced each year. These figures are assembled in Table 11. They show a fairly steady pro duction of 6, 000 to acres annually up to the end of the century. Then follows a gradual rise until the outbreak of the World War, and rapid expansion during and shortly after the war period, culminating in the peak of acres in 1921. A violent drop came in 1925 followed by still further drastic reductions in 1932 and 1933. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Tobacco Growing in the Connecticut River Valley Classic Reprint written by Leslie R. Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tobacco Growing in the Connecticut River Valley Tobacco has been grown in the Connecticut valley since about 1840, and while the crop has had its ups and downs it may be said to have steadily increased in acreage since that time. The past fifteen years have seen by far the greatest percentage of increase, and the end is not yet. Every grower is growing all the tobacco that he can hang in his curing sheds, and so new sheds are the very best indication of an increase in acreage. The increase Of 1915 over the 1914 acreage was around 25 per cent. This crop is by far the most important money crop grown in this section, and represents extensive and intensive agriculture of the highest order. The rapid increase of the past fifteen or twenty years may be explained by improved machinery, more abundant help, and, most important of all, the fact that in recent years the crop has brought prices that enable the grower to make expenses and have something left over for his labor and as a profit for his Operations. The successful tobacco grower is a specialist, as no crop grown calls for more scientific knowledge or the application of more common sense. In the growing, harvesting and curing of the crop the grower has to know something of practical chemistry, physics and biology.
