Lewis Curry plans to retire from raising tobacco crops after this one is sold Lewis Currys tobacco crop is one of a dwindling number in Adair County. Its harder to find tobacco growing now with the health warnings against smoking. He says he will cut, house and sell this crop in the coming weeks, and then he plans to retire from raising it. Farmers are quickly replacing tobacco with other crops. Curry says hes been farming all his life. Sometimes it was rough, like this year, on the edge of a drought. He doesnt want to see this become an official drought. He also grows hay and has about a hundred head of cattle on his 160-acre farm in the Vester community. My family moved here when I was two and its beginning to feel a little like home, he says. He and his wife Joann, a retired teacher, have three children: Kenny Wayne, a Kentucky State Policeman in Central City, Tammy in Bowling Green and Julie in Elizabethtown.
