Excerpt from Tobacco Substation at Windsor: Report for 1936This, the fifteenth annual report of the Tobacco Substation, records the progress Of investigations on fertilization, cultural Operations and control of insects and diseases of the tobacco crop. Two types of investigations are always in progress at this Station. The first comprises empirical tests with exact measurements Of results which are immediately applicable in commercial practice. Such, for instance, are the tests Of different insecticides for the control of ¿ea beetles as recorded in this bulletin. The second type includes more fundamental studies, the results of which are usually not directly applicable to commercial tobacco growing but are necessary for an understanding and intelligent conduct Of the more practical tests Of the first type. Into this group come the studies on the anatomy of the tobacco leaf.Most of our projects include both practical tests and fundamental investigations. The latter are usually more time-consuming and perhaps more important, although less is published about them. They may lead to more extensive changes in practice than the empirical tests. There is need, however, for both types in any well-rounded program planned for the improvement of Connecticut Valley tobacco.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
