Not exactly incorrect, this idea, but
scarcely enough to lead you surely to

Yet there are really only three things
to learn-the type of tobacco to choose,
its quality, and the way it is conditioned
for smoking. And the first two are easy, for
Kentucky Burley is the type favored every
where by American smokers, and you can
always get quality if you want it-fne, fla

the product of reputable maker and per-

naturally costs.
AS to ''condition'', you must know that
tobacco is not ready to smoke as it comes
