The tobacco industry is one of the most important in the world, and its importance is constantly increasing. It is computed that there are 500 different kinds of tobacco grown within the British Empire alone! Of course, the quality varies immensely, but it may be said without fear of contradiction that of all these tobaccos there are none'that surpass in purity and fragrance those grown and manufactured in New Zealand by the National Tobacco Co., Ltd., (pioneers lof the tobacco industry in the Dominion). Their outstanding merit is largely due to the fact that they are toasted. This process rids them of thepoisonous nicotine and venders' them perfectly innocuous, a point the doctors (heavy smokers ns a rule) have not been slow to recognise. In fact many of them smoke National brands exclusively. Popular lines: “Riverhead Gold” (mild); “Cavendish” and “Navy Cut” (medium); and “Cut Plug No. 10” (full strength). These tobaccos are on sale by tobacconists everywhere, and ailso at many growers and general stores.—Advt.
