Tobacco Produc tion Increased Production ot flue-cured tobacco I in the United States more than doubled since 1921, according to gov ernment estimates. Flue-cured to baccQ is used chiefly in the manufac ture of cigarettes and the gain in pro duction of this type of tobacco is the result of the increasing numberj ot men and women who are reaching toi j "igarettes. The ev?r-g rowing popu-' Parity of the cigarette is attributed by J authorities in the industry to the fact that people are paying more at- 1 tention to their Adam's apples and are using cigarettes from which cer- f tain harsh irritants present in all i tobaccos have been removed by mod-! ern methods of manufacture such as | the toasting process including the ' use of ultra violet rays. According to government records, production o( flue-cured tobacco last year amounted to more than 870,000,000 pounds as ! compared with only >72,000,000 lbs.1 in 1921.
