SUMMARY 
Production of tobacco in the United States is localized according 
to types. This localization results from the fact that soil require- 
ments for different types and classes of tobacco vary. The differentia- 
tion of tobacco into classes and types results in part from variations 
in methods of culture and of curing, and, in the case of cigar tobacco, 
from the primary purposes for which the tobacco is TOWN. 
There are six important classes of tobacco, as follows: 
Flue-cured, of which there are four types. This tobacco is impor- 
tant in the manufacture of cigarettes and inthe export trade. Limited 
quantities are used for other purposes, particularly chewing and pipe 
tobacco. 
Fire-cured, of which there are four types. Formerly the most 
important export type, this tobacco is now much less important in 
both domestic and foreign trade. It is used extensively in the manu- 
facture of snuff, and fairly large quantities are still exported to foreign 
countries. 
Air-cured, of which there are two light air-cured types and three 
dark air-cured types. The light air-cured types are used extensively 
in the manufacture of cigarettes and pipe and chewing tobacco. 
Only small quantities are exported. The dark air-cured types are not 
suitable for cigarettes, but are used mostly in chewing forms. 
Cigar tobacco, divided according to primary usage into the classes 
of filler, binder, and wr apper types.
