Alter it lay long enough to wilt and not break in handling, carry it to tho scaffold, or to the barn if volt prefer, and bang fiomsi.x to eight plants on a four. foot stick. It you scnflbld, it is better-to have your scaffold nt the barn, that you may be able to hurry the tobacco under shelter if it should rain. Five or six days is no long as tobacco should hang on the scaffold in good weather, and if theic be rain or excessive heat a much shorter time.
