“The finest tobacco I ever smoked I bought iu New Zealand/’ said Mr Kennedy Smith, a well-known Leeds business man, on his return home, after a flying visit to this Britain of the South. He was addressing a Notary gathering, and members evinced great interest in wdiat he told them. * ‘The New Zealand tobacco is toasted,” continued Mr Smith, “and the, toasting frees it of nicotine, so that it is quite harmless. Toasting also vastly, improves the flavour and gives it .its much prized bouquet. There’s ho purer tobacco in the world. The American tobaccos, mostly containing an excess of nicotine, are not in it with toasted New Zealand, which, by the way, nearly everyone I met seemed to be smoking.” A true bill, Mr Smith! There are only four brands of toasted tobacco: Riverhead Gold, Cavendish, Cut Plug No. 10, and Navy Cut No. 3. They are all good and are all popular. Their success has brought imitations into the field. This was to be expected! Look out for them.*
