" When we got to Hamilton," writes ''New Chum " in a Manchester weekly, describing a motor trip from Auckland to Rotorua, " I asked my host to stop at a tobacconist's, so that I could replenish'tpy pouch. The tobacconist recommended the New Zealand tobacco so.highly that (somewhat doubtfully I confess) I invested in a packet of Pocket Edition—and found it so good that J told my friend I was sofry I hadn't got more of it while 1 was about it. He laughed. 'Oh. Dial's all right,' he said. ' You can buy New Zealand tobacco anywhere and everywhere. It has a Do-minion-wide sale.' And so 1 discovered. Every New Zealander seems to know ' toasted' and most of them smoke it." There 'are only five blends of these popular tobaccos—Cut Plug No. 'lO (Bullshead). Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog). Cavendish, Riverhead Gold, and Desert Gold. Not only are they renowned for their fascinating bouquet and beautiful flavour, but toasting (by the manufacturers' own process) largely frees them . from nicotine. That's why they're so comparatively harm-less.—-[Advt.]
