Did you know Unit Lord .Jellicoe was a devotee of the “weed?” He chiefly smokes cigarettes, Hut tontines Himself to one packet of ten per diem, quite moderate! Yes. Some people smoke thrice that quantity between breakfast and bed. . But despite the-popular-ity of the ‘eig.’ millions of smokers prefer the pipe. As to the injuriousness of smoking it largely depends upon the tobacco. The imported brands as a rule, are simply loaded with nicotine, so that their habitual use cannot be good. In that respect they differ materially from our Xew Zealand grown tobaccos. 'I hose are roasted—hence their delightful flavour and fragrance. Also, they are comparatively free from nicotine and do not burn the tongue, wreck the nerves or afleet the heart. There is unquestionably a great future before these tobaccos. and already the growing curing and manufacture of the leaf is becoming an important Xew Zealand industry, and farmers are finding a tobacco crop a profitable one to cultivate. Brands chiefly in demand are Riverhead Gold, mild; Navy Cut (Bulldog), medium; Cut Plug No. 10 (full). — Advt.
