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, ete. 
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.
