by the names, Nicotiana Tabacum Macrophylla 

 and Nicotiana Tabacum Angustifolia. 



Maryland tobacco belongs to the Macro- 

 phylla variety and there are many other types 

 differing from each other according to shape 

 of the leaf, size of the stalk, etc. 



Virginian tobacco is of the Angustifolia 

 variety, and of this also there are many dif- 

 ferent types. 



Most European and other grown tobaccos 

 have been raised from original plants of the 

 Maryland and Virginian varieties. 



It should be remembered that there is no 

 essential difference in cigar, pipe smoking or 

 cigarette tobaccos. The differences are physi- 

 cal only. All kinds may be obtained from the 

 same species or even the same variety of the 

 species by suitable culture and crossing.
