Oh, yes! They grow tobacco in England. Bui the English climate is not ideal for the purpose, and the only place where tobacco is now cutivated in the Old Country is Church Cookham, in Hampshire. Far greater success has l,i en achieved by growers in New Zealand, where our toasted ’baccy has made a lasting reputation for itself, and !.. now favourably known far and wide Not surprising, either, because fi.e greatest care is exercised in the culture of the plant and the selection of the leaf—invariably of the choioist quality. Also the health of the smoker is safeguarded, because the toasting to which our tobaccos are subjected in the cour.sc of manufacture cleans up the nicotine in them to so considerable an extent that they arc made as pure as it's possible for tobacco to be. The five famous blends —Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverheari Gold and Desert Gold, arc in ever-increasing demand Tl.e three (irst arc unequalled for the pipe; the last two make the most fascinating of all cigarettes.* Alfred Gould announces the following auction sales: Saturday, 4th December, at 11 a.in., at rooms freehold residential property situated Mount street; Tuesday 7th December, at 1 p.m., at Brightwater, furniture and effects on account Canon Quintrell, who is leaving the district.* The Loyal Nelson Lodge will hold another of its fortnightly dances in the Oddfellows’ Hal! to-morrow night, when patrons are assured of an enjoyable night’s entertainment.
