TOBACCO CULTURE
AUSTRALIAN LEAF INFERIOR
(Received 9 a.m.) SYDNEY, December. 16.
Tobacco culture in Australia is prov--ing - unsatisfactory, according.-to-Mr .1. Worry, chairman of the .Britisll To'-; baceo'-Qompany, Ltd., when addressing the annual- meeting of.-the company. ' He declared that an unduly large proportion of Australian tobacco, leaf v.-as below the standard required Ijy Australian smokers. The • company* therefore, had refused to buy largo quantities unsuitable for manufacture.
It is evident that this oyer-producV tion of inferior leaf was due either to the inexperience of the growers : or. to unsuitable districts and 'conditions.; "
