By jbve! £1,200.000 worth of tobacco imported into New Zealand annually! Fancy that ! However, every year that passes from now on is. bound to witness smaller arid, smaller' Importations, of tobacco into this country from • overseas, for the .simple 'reason that New Zealand is now producing such splendid tbtiacco of her own' that she must ere very long become independent altogether of outside sources of supply. It may be added that m the opinion of experts our .New Zealand tobacco is the purest m the world, because, unlike the foreign gpo&sftit is practically free from nicbtine,;ajid v may be indulged m to any extent "w;ithr perfect safety. Its comparative iniipcjuousness is partly due to the soil inwliicjh the plant is grown and partly to the. fact' that the leaf is toasted m the process of manufacture. There are several brands, ranging from Riverhead Gold (a mild- aromatic) to Cut Plug No. 10, a rich, full-bodied sort. Betwixt and between come Cavendish, a popular medium and Navy Cut No. 3, a blend of choice tobaccos, alao of medium strength.*
