What our chemists call, “an almost perfect seal for tobacco condition” — a heavy soft-foil 4 with an extra ou wrapper of glassine. . + FTER all, what men want is good tobacco, first and foremost; better packing or lower price is always secondary. And good tobacco is precisely what Granger Rough Cut offers —quality Butley of the ripest, richest grade, specially made by . “Wellman’s Method,” an old-time secret for sealing in the flavor. What’s more, the *“Rough Cut” is the one way pipe tobacco should be cut for cool smoking. The lower price is welcome, of course—but it’s what’s inside that has made Granger the most talked-about new brand in all our ex perience.
