The old slogan, “Encourage Local Industry,” is not seen in print or heard from the 1 platform so frequently as it used to be, simply because lo 7 cal industry is encouraged and that to a most gratifying extent in New Zealand to-day. Workshops and factories! are springing up in the various centres of population where goods in everyday demand are turned out equal to anything imported, and in some instances actually better! Tobacco is a case in point. Grown and manufactured within the Dominion, this indispensable commodity for quality is second to none. The; raw material is produced under ideal conditions. Climate, soil, highly skilled labour and the most modern methods of manufacture combine to make the . six brands, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold and Pocket Edition, the perfect tobacco. One of its extraordinary merits is that .it is toasted. That remarkable process (the manufacturers’ ow'n) eliminates the nicotine in the leaf and renders the finished product practically harmless —something that cannot be said of even the finest imported.
