-New Zealand, long famous for its dairy produce, meal, hides, loot wear, tweeds, blankets and nigs, bids fair to become no less celebrated for its tobacco. After many years of experimenting, exports have at length succeeded in producing tobaccos (grown and cured within the Dominion) which in certain respects are actually superior to the best imported . The la iter frequently contains an excess of nicotine, while the former contains comparatively little, with the result that you can smoke these pure tobaccos with impunity, and their cultivation is likely to prove of inestimable value to men on the land because the average yield of a tobacco crop is worth £SO per acre net. Strange to say, the barren gum country of the North, while quite unsuitable for ordinary crops, grows splendid tobacco and ultimately the industry must prove of national importance. N.Z. tobacco is already on the market and selling well, so smokers can “try it out” for themselves. Ask for “Kiverhead Gold,” mild, “Navy Cut” (Bulldog) medium or “Cut Plug No. 10,” Bullhead, full strength. “Caversham Mixture” is the latest addition. 32
