So far as is known, the first instance of Europeans being left in New Zealand to their own resources occurred in 1792, when Captain Raven, of the Britannia, landed a sealing party at Facile Harbour on the West Coast of the South Island, where they remained a little over twelve months before being called for. Colonisation did not definitely set in till 1840. That was only eight years before the advent of Dill’s Best, and as New Zealand has ever since been growing in population, so Dill’s Best has been growing in popularity as “a mighty fine pipe tobacco.** hfinoe its arrival in the Dominion many smokers have discovered it to be the tobacco they were longing for. Barlow Bros.. Christchurch, are the proud New Zealand distributors.—4.
