Scientists who have made a study of the thirst of plants find a great variation, but on the whole Nature demands a lot of water in carrying on her horticultural and agricultural operations. For example, engineers of tne U.S. Department of Agriculture have found that to prodime one pound of alfalfa, liay 750 pounds of water are pumped through the plant. In order,to raise a crop of the commodity the amount of water required would cover the ground to a depth of twenty inches. In more arid regions up to '3O inches of water is required to allow for the greater loss due to evaporation from the .soil. The “thirst” of tobacco plants has nob been recorded ,but the process employed with the mature leaves selected for Bed Shield and Blue Shield tobaccos is to remove the surplus moisture by flue-curing—in large kilns where the heat is regulated in an ideal manner. A later stop in the process is toasting, : which brings out all the natural goodness of the tobacco. You will find New Zealand tobacco at its best in Bed Shield (Dark) and Blue Shield (Medium). Try a 2 oz. tin at 1/7, or an econo- | mi'eal one-pound canister. 78
