Wherever smokers meet the conversation, appropriately enough, almost invariably veers round to the weed. The other afternoon in the fine smokrooin of a popular Auckland club the eldest member remarked: “I’ve smoked Rhodesian tobacco at the Cape, American in pretty nearly every State of the Union, Indian in Calcutta, and toasted New Zealand here in Auckland, and 1 reckon the New Zealand is the pick of the basket. Not. only is the quality first-rate but the triflling amount of nicotine it contains enables you to smoke as much of it as you jolly well please. The toasting does it!
