“When I heard they were growing and manufacturing tobacco in New Zealand.” writes Mr Jas. Scattergood. a retired wholesale tobacco dealer. in a London trade journal. "I was not keenly interested, concluding that probably the stuff wasn't worth smoking. But last yeßr, when I visited New Zealand to see my married daughter I found to my surprise that the New Zealand toasted tobacco had actually become a serious rival to the Imported article!—and that it is not only of superfine quality but that thunks to the small amount of nicotine in it it may be smoked ad. lib. without a particle of harm resulting to the smoker After 50 years in the trade I can say unhesitatlugly that I know of no other tobacco like this." Well Mr Scattergood there is no other tobacco like it' it Is unique And the four to&sUd brands, Riverhcad Gold. Navy Cut No 3 (Bulldog*. Cavendish, and Cut Piny No. 10 ißullshra-'.' are as wcll-knowr as Mount Cook. The comparative absence of nicotine in them (chmmatec by toasting* is the secret of their harmlessness.
