whose smoke they inhaled and pulled
out of their mouths and noses. Later
they discovered that the leaves of
plant were rolled in the leaf of maize
The first clear account of smoking
was given in 1926 by Gonzalo Herman
deg de Oviedo in his "Historia General
de las Indias" He said the practice
was pernicious and FUSED to produce
insensibility." He reported that in
Cuba and most of the islands the ma
tives smoked rolls of herbs, (which
they called tobaccos," while on the
mainland they inhaled through the
forks of a Y-shaped hollow cane which
they inserted In both nostrils This
instrument the natives called "tobago."
The Spaniards thought the name was
that of the fuel instead of the pipe.
hence our word tobacco. Oviedo point
ed out the mistake. but tobacco" had
worked itself into the white mans Ian
guage, and there 1t stayed. The herb
itself was variously known among the
natives. 1t was 'cohiha" to the Caribs.

the Mexicans and 'uppowOc" to the
Indians of Virginia.

Not essentially new are any of the
modern FORMS of tobacco using The
leaves wrapped about with corn husk

| cigarette; the leaves rolled without
wrapping of another material to our
cigar. Tobacco was powdered into
snuff and taken into the nostrils. as
now. Tobacco was also chewed by va
rious Indian peoples. The pipe was in
almost universal use; among the Amer
lean Indians the stone pipe, calumet"
was necessary implement in many
ceremonial functions.
Tobacco arrived in Europe appar-
emily by several different routes aud
under several different DISCUSSES. Prob
ably Sir Walter Raleigh deserves the
creditor blame-of introducing the
smoking of It, Up to his time tobacco
had camopfiaged as a medicine, the
few smokers processing to be smoking
for their health. The Engllshman-his
pipe Is shown herewith--blew the
smoke from his nose defiantly and said
he smoked because he liked 1t.
The ants of the seventeenth century
had high old time. Pagan, Moham-
medan and Christian monarchs alike
attempted to crush the habit of "to-
hacco drinking" as 1t was then called
In England. But despite all opposition
tobacco eventually was established as
fayorite luxury all over Europe.
The cigarette attained commercial
Importance OTTER the Crimean war. Eng
fish officers got the habit from associa-
ton with the Turks, French and Ital-
ians. who, like the Indians, "rolled
their own" Other Englishmen Initiated

recently. The accused was sentenced
to a fine of 1900 francs cost. He re-

phenomena. Here is a case In which

to us.

In 1868 not enough cigarettes were
consumed in the United States to be
subjected to the internal revenue tax.
In recent years the Increase has been
by billions. From 1899 to 1914 1t was
500 per cent. In the past two years
the demand has advanced prodIgiously.
probably largely because of the war.
In 1910, for the first time. the man
ufacture of cigarettes exceeded that OF
cigars. their relative NUMBERS being
$500 100000 and S.000O00000 Since
then, while cigarettes have multiplied.
cigars have just about stood still In
the year ended June 30. 1919. the num-
Der of cigarettes was 1880. 100000.
and of cigars approximately 8,0000O0-
600, as In 1910. For the first time more
leaf tobacco went into cigarettes than
into cigars, the two numbers being
177000.000 pounds and 1872 100000
pounds.
The government derived from the In
ternal revenue tax on tobacco S206003.-
091, an increase of S49.S14.431 over the
preceding year. More than sos ,500.000
of the tobacco money came from ciga-
rettes. Recently the tobacco tax has
been heavily increased
Altogether we used 497 ,079,920
pounds of tobacco last year We got
away with 174,697. 40S pounds of plug.
II. 400. 465 pounds of twist. $500 225
pounds of finecut. 257.S93.440 pounds
of smoking tobacco and 37.180,3S2
pounds of snuff.
The value of the tobacco crop to the
farmer was estimated last year at
S542. SAT. 900 The average price he got
for 1t was 80 cents pound. He gets
more now.
More than 81 200. 100000 year Is
the value OF tobacco products manufac-
tured In the United States. More than
a million and a half acres of land are
devoted to the growing of the "weed."
On the manufacturing side the govern
ment estimate of the capital invested
In 1914 was 5000, $4,000. which was
low figure even then and Is greatly
exceeded now. The number of wage
earners in manufacture in that year
was 17s.s72, and their annual earnings
SIT $4,000.
1t is variously figured that go per
cent of our adult male population and
a third of our total population use to-

woman and child, is seven pounds a

the tobacco users Is twenty pounds.
There are, according TO one of the com
pilers of data. 25,0O0.000 smokers and
