PAGE FOUR TURKISH TOBACCO IS ‘TRICKY’ CROP “Tricky” is the word for Turkish oramatic tobacco, says William D. Lee, soil specialist for the State Col lege Extension Service. In fact, says Lee, Turk ish leaf probably is the “trickiest” crop grown com mercially in the: State. It is far more responsive to ni trogen and organic resid ues in the soil than are any other crops. For example, Lee asserts, an application of only 10 pounds of nitrogen per ac re, made on a field which apparently needs a “stimu lant,” wili cause rapid gro wth with thick, dark-green leaves—and resultant low quality. On fine-textured soil (silt loams and clay loams) the growth is very poor; on deep sandy loams thei grow th is strong to excessive. On eroded or galled spots the plants grow slowly or in some cases not at all. Summing up, Lee says the more suitable soil con ditions for Turkish tobac co appear to be: (1) med ium-thick loams with mod erately open subsoils, (2) a moderate level of fertility (about 30-bushel corn land) and no freshly turned or recently added organic ma terial.
