COLOR OF CIGAR WRAPPER
Expert Points Out It Makes No Diff ference In Strength Or Mildness

In a newly published book called "Tobaccoland." by Carl Avery Wer- ner, the author explodes many popu- lar fallacies regarding tobacco. Not the least interesting is his revelation that the light color of the wrapper does not signify a mild cigar. but that, on the contrary. medium or even colored cigars are, if anything, milder, smoother and sweeter than those of an extremely light shade.
 This Is in accord with the claims made in the advertising of Portina cigars, distributed by the R. D. Bur nett Tobacco company. The writer says:
 Probably there Is not one smoker in a thousand who is not surprised and, in fact, skeptical, when he Is told that the color of cigar is a5- solutely no guide as to Its strength. Yet such Is the case, and a fact well known to cigar manufacturers ana to dealers and importers. The bellef of smokers that cigars of dark color are strong and those of lighter shade are milder Is, in point of fact as fallacious as 1t Is general.
 Sometimes the inclination of smokers toward the light-hued cigars assumes the proportion of a difficulty in meeting the demand. The manufacturers would then glad ly correct the error; but, after haV- ing carefully classified products un- der the style of claros, colorados, maduros, etc. for years, and allow ing 1t to be understood that these were synonymous for mild, medium and strong, they find it next to im- possible to dispel the Illusion.
 AS shown in my description or the manufacture of cigars, the color classification is based solely upon the wrapper, no graduation Of color or strength being made, generally speaking, in one filler.
 "The manufacturer virtually uses but one grade or blend of tobacco In the body or filler of his brand; the in his colorados and maouros.
 After the cigars are made, how ever, his selector takes them in hand and classifies them according to the relative shades of the wrapper.
 "This is done to effect uniformi- : ty in the appearance of each box or cigars, and to enable the dealer to readily indulge the whims or the self deluded smoker.
 Even if light color did make for mildness, inasmuch as the wrapper constitutes not more than one-tenth of the cigar, 1t will readily be seen that the degree of its strength or mildness would be almost negligible in effect. In this connection, how ever, it Is interesting to note that tobacco tradesmen versed in the in- tricacies of the industry avoid the lighter wrapped for their own smok- ing, knowing that 1t generally indi- cates that the cure of the leaf was immature or forced and that 1t de- tracts from the mellowness of the cigar"
