It has been said that the man who causes two blades of grass to grow where only one grew before is a public benefactor. If that be true—and true is assuredly is—what is to be said of those who established a successful local industry, which finds employment for many hands, develops the latent resources of this Dominion and lceeps the money in the country? Look at what Hawke's Bay is dcyng. This province is the home of the New Zealand tobacco industry. It produces '"Gold Pouch" and "Three Diamonds." two 'brands which for flavor, fragrance, small percentage of nicotine and all round excellence are unbeaten. Indeed the local product has caused a revolution to the tobacco world sucli as has never been experienced here before. It <has changed the taste and the habit of many a smokr. who no longer craves for tho foreign tobacco but smokes "Gold Pouch" instead and* nothing else. And the mannfa-cturers who study his wants treat him generously, they have not increased their price and a big stout bag can lie had for one shilling, same as beioi fib.
