A cigar is a *Tampa" only when it is produced in the Tampa district, the commission ruled, and is a “Havana” only if it contains tobacco grown in Cuba. The decision, of far-reaching im- portance to the tobacco industry, was prompted by what the commission called unfair practices of David Horn and J. M. Hynson, cigar manufac- turers of Red Lion, Pa., who were or- dered to cease calling their products Tampas and Havanas. The Red Lion manuwfacturers also were warned not to label cigars “im- ported” unless they actually were im- ported into this country and to stop referring to their cigars as winners of the “double Grand Prize, St. Louis Exposition, 1904.” The commission gaid no such prize was ever issued. bottle of BUTTER- MILK in your re- frigerator.
