Fashions in tobacco-pipes change as well as fashions in other things. The Meerschaum formerly held pride of place with smokers, but has practically disappeared, at any rate in New Zealand, since' the vrtar. Clays have gone out, too, to a large extent, and calabashes are seldom seen now. The briar is still with us, but genuine French briar is ecarce and rather expensive. There are plenty of cheap substitutes, though. But the pipe is comparatively unimportant—the baccy’s the thing! Apropos of that, have you sampled our N.Z.-grown tobaccos ? They have their points. Unlike most of the imported brands, they are comparatively free of nicotine, and may be smoked with impunity. Also, they are all toasted. Hence their fine flavour and aroma. The most popular are Riverhead Gold, mild ; Navy Cut (Bulldog), medium ; and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), full. The N.Z. tobacco ..industry already finds employment for many, is proving of. great importance to agriculturists (the average, yield of a tobacco crop is worth £5O, or more), and richly merits the encouragement it receives.*
