WOOD’S TREATED TOBACCO SEEDS 
Wood’s Tobacco Seeds are treated. This treatment is to prevent wildfire, black fire, angular leaf, spot, etc. 
|-^CUI>TITRE—It is customary to bum a piece of land in the woods for plant beds. This destroys grass, weeds and In- 
J sects, adds fertility throug'h the action of the wood ashes and leaves the g’round in g’ood order. The seeds are sown 
( tj about February and protected by plant-bed cloth to keep oif tobacco flies. When large enough and weather is settled 
V _^ T (about June), set the plants out in highly manured or fertilized soil in 3^-foot rows, 3 feet between the plants. Con¬ 
testant care must be given, cultivating, suckering, worming, etc. An ounce will produce plants for 3 acres.
