Rotarians down South recently entertained at lunch an English journalist wandering far afield in searct of "copy." When an adjournment was made to the smoke-r'oom the guest was offered a "fill" by somebody. Presently tie asked the name of the tobacco. Told it was grown and manufactured ■in New Zealand he was astonished. "Yours is a wonderful country," he said. "It produces all the necessaries of life and some of its luxuries as well! This tobacco is some of the best I have ever smoked." He was greatly interested to learn that unlike the imported brands, New Zealand tobacco contained so little nicotine that it could ,be indulged in ad lib. without fear of consequences. He then inquired where "this wonderful tobacco," as he called it, was procurable, and was informade that it Could be obtained of any tobacconist, also that the brands ranged from a mild aromatic to a full flavoured sort. The former is "Riverhead Gold" and the latter "Cut Plug No. 10." The happy medium is "Navy Cut No. 3." x
