You can easily satisfy yourself as to the truth of this assertion because our New Zealandgrown tobaccos are all toasted. That is one reason why they appeal so strongly to smokers. Another reason is that they ’contain (comparatively) but little nicotine," and may consequently be smoked all day long without producing those unpleasant effects that frequently follow the prolonged smoking of imported tobaccos, all of them (more or less) loaded with nicotine. For a cool, sweet, and fragrant smoke try Riverhead Gold, mild; Navy Cut Plug (Bulldog label), medium;*or Cut Plug No. 10 (Bull’s Head) full strength.
