While at Ottawa, Mr Baldwin one day entertained at luncheon a small party of visiting pressmen and others. When an adjournment was made to the smoke-room of the great hotel, one of the guests (a New Zealander) produced a well-filled pouch and expressed the hope that their distinguished host would sample his tobacco “ grown and manufactured in New Zealand.” * 1 Delighted! ” said Mr Baldwin, “but first of all I must send for my little cherryw'ood.’ ’ So saying, he despatched a waiter for the pipe, who soon returned bearing the giant cherrywood (2| feet long with a bowl holding half-a-pound) presented to its owner shortly before he quitted England. The arrival of the “little cherry wood” was greeted with roars of laughter. The New Zealand tobacco recommended to Mr Baldwin’s notice was duly sampled, surprise being expressed that tobacco of such splendid quality should be produced in New Zealand. It was Cut Plug No. 10, one of the four famous toasted (and practically nicotineless) brands so popular in Maoriland, the others being Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish, and Riverhead Gold.
