WHITE BUBLEY TOBACCO. 351 



Virginia, and to some extent in one or two of the 

 adjoining counties, are flue-cured in the same manner as 

 yellow tobacco. 



Missouri, for many years, grew a large quantity of 

 excellent, manufacturing tobacco in the eastern part of 

 the State, on both sides of the Missouri river, but the 

 product has greatly fallen off within recent years. The 

 White Burley is now more extensively used in the 

 United States, for the manufacturing of plug and fine 

 cut, than all other varieties combined. West Virginia 

 is gradually enlarging its area of manufacturing tobacco.
