To most settlers gorse is looked upon as more or less of a curse ; but according to an application made by a ratepayer to the Waimea County Council, for permission to plant the noxious weed on certain third-class land (states the Nels,on "Mail”), three sheep to the acre can be grown' off this class of feed. In the days of Auld Lang Syne, a N.Z, grown tobacco made its appearance on .the. market but failed to get a hold on the smoking public. The leaf was all right,, but there was something deficient in the curing and the industry languished and fizzled out. A much more recent attempt to solve the problem resulted in the production of the National Tobacco Co.’s brands, now firmly established in the favour of the smokers. The secret of this success es said to be due to .the new toasting process, which has resulted in a most remarkable improvement 'in the smoking quality. The difference between the toasted and the non-toasted product is as wide as a cooked potato differs in taste from a raw potato. Any smoker can easily convince .himself by trying just a few pipes of any of the following brands : Riverhead Goid, very mild ; Toasted Navy Cut (Bulldog), of medium strength ; and Cut .Plug No. 10 for those who prefer a full body.*
