Despite frosts and drought Italy’s wheatnelds this year have yielded 70,000,000 quintals (hundredweights), the biggest production in Italian history. Yet another tobacco “bogey” bowled over. For generations enemies of the weed have been denouncing smoking as a common cause of cancer of the tongue or mouth. Now the Grand Council of the British Empire Cancer Campaign has discovered, after a lengthy series of exhaustive experiments, that tobacco is not a cancerproducing agent at all! Thus antitobaccoitcs are deprived, “at one fell swoop,” of one of their favourite arguments against smoking! But although tobacco has thus been shown to be innocent of causing cancer, it sometimes proves highly injurious in other ways. Brands rich in nicotine (as the imported certainly are) may play the dickens with the nerves, the heart, and the eyesight if smoked habitually. The purest tobaccos of all are the New Zealand. Unlike any other brands they are all toasted. This process helps enormously to rid them of nicotine and renders them quite harmless. Oh, yes, they appeal to all smokers because there are several brands “Eiverhead Gold,” ‘ * Navy Cut, ” “ Cavendish, ’ ’ and the old smoker’s favourite, “Cut Plug No. 10.”*
