“Now Zealand lias como into possession of something more valuable than the biggest gold mine,” remarked the captain of an American liner the other day when sampling some of our local tobacco. “And I predict,” ho went on, “that in years to come tobaccogrowing bore will be just as flourishing as in Virginia, my native country.” It is gratifying to see that some enterprising people in this Dominion are realising the huge possibilities of the tobacco industry, bur. even the most sanguine were surprised when the local article made its first appearance. Such was the success that the manufacturers could hardly cope with the demand. And no wonder, because this tobacco represents quite a now type with a distinctive flavour of its own, due, it is said, to the toasting process which has- been adopted in its manufacture.

Obtainable in three strengths—Hi verhcacl Gold, mild: Toasted Navy Cut (Bulldog), medium; and Cut 'Plug No. 10 (Bullhead), full body.—Advt,
