Tobacco Manufaclurers
Wishing to bring their Specialities under the notice of the public in the
cheapest and best manner, should use the PATENT "GLACIER SHOW
LABELS.
    No advertising medium has had a greater success than these transparent Labels,
 which have a great advantage over expensive Show Cards, in that, If used at all,
 they cannot be unnoticed by the public. Affixed to the glass of shop fronts or doors,
 they will remain unaffected by light, heat, or moisture for a long period, and must be
 stun, not only by the customers of a particular establishment, but also by the public
 W passing.

           INTRODUCTORY NOTE.




  "Good wine needs no bush." Good tobacco chemistry

needs no puff,-excepting that of the smoker when

burning the "fragrant" weed.  Ile, however, ought

to be in blissful ignorance of the fact that on the face

of this earth there dwells such a man as


               At your service,

                    JAMES B. LUTTEIRMAN.

         A WORD OF THANKS.


   I have to express my gratitude to numberless friends who
have kindly helped me along in one way or other with my
laborious task, and hereby take pleasure in doing 80.
  I head the list with my painstaking, patient, thoughtful
and enterprising Editor and Publisher " Vesuvian "-
than whom the tobacco industry of the world has no truer
friend.
  Second in importance i8 hAr. William A1. Peters, Editor
and Publisher of " The American Bottler," 39, Nassau
Street, New  York City, who ha    carefully  watched my
American interests throughout, and in whom I have reposed
8o much conlidence as to permit him to sign my name in all
things-leyal documents not excepted-and full power to
act as he may think best on my behalf.
  Sly newly-found young friend rib. Thomas M. Dodridge of
London, also has my thanks, as apatient experimental chemist.
  The three under-mentioned English publishers hare been
particularly kind to me, and hare sent me books in the
fond hope that such would be (although they have NOT
been) useful in my labours. However, I take the will for
the deed, and hereby beg to acknowledge the books theykindly
sent-each of which will be found worthy of perusal.
  From  Messrs. Chatto and   Windus: "Tobacco: its
History and Associations," by F. KV. Fairholt, F.S.A.
  From   Mir. Edward    Stanford: "Tobacco," by John
Dunning, andI "Tobacco: a Farmer's Crop," by Philip
Mfeadows Taylor.
  From, Jessrs. Gurney and Jackson: "Tobacco, and its
Adulterations," by Henry P. Prescott.

 



xi



   The Orange Judd Company of New York have also my
 thanks for a copy of "Tobacco Culture."
   I cannot close these remnarks without paying a compli-
 ment to my very respected and honoured friend flon8ieur
 Jacques Zbaumne, of " Le Tabac," Paris, France; to Mr. F.
 W. Lyon of the " Tobacco Trade Review," London; and
 the Editors of " Die Deutsche Tabak-Zeitung," Berlin,
 Germany; "De Tabaksplant," Kuilenberg, Holland; "Le
 Furneur," Brussels, Belgium ; "The Tobacco Review,"
 Chicago, U.S.; "Western Tobacco Journal," Cincinatti,
 U.S.; and also, to a certain extent, to " Die Bremer
 Tabak und Cigarren-Zeitung," Bremen, Germany.
   I also beg to say a good word for the patient printers who
have made perfect order out of the chaos of my cramped
caliqraphy; my various unknown friends, confidential sub-
scribers all over the world (who will, I am sure, appreciate
my eftbrt to put on paper the result of my forty-two years
international experiences), for the noble manner in which
they have supported this volume, and made it the greatest
success ever known in tobacco literature, and to whom I
commend the many offices tendered by the advertisers herein;
and, likewise, all the advertisers themselves.
  Icatne to Europe for pleasure; I had no idea of writing
a book, but the persuasion which induced me to do so
mlust be laid at the door of my old friend and colleague
  Vesuvian."
  Craving indulgence for sins of omission and commission,
friends, one and all, I thank you.
                           Respectfully,
                        JAMES B. LUTTERMAN.

                PRE FACE.


P REFACES, as a rule, are not read; should this one
    meet a similar fate, I have at least done my duty.
In the one or two preceding pages I have thanked
everybody, so nothing remains for me to do but to say
a few words about myself.
  I am a Teuton; was born in Hamburg; went to United
States with my family when I was only 9 years old;
have been in the tobacco trade for 42 years, and know
nothing else but tobacco-it is my very life. I have
travelled both hemispheres extensively, and watched
the systems of tobacco working in almost every country
which takes any interest in this great trade. And what
I have learnt and know of that trade I now lay bare in
these pages.
  Brethren in the trade! put my experiences to use. I
have retired from active work now, but I still take a
fatherly interest in what is going on in the tobacco
industry around me.   By following the tried and
approved precepts and formulas given herein, there is
not an article or grade of goods you produce which
cannot be improved.
  One word in conclusion; when using drugs, &c., get
thein good,; don't use more, nor don't use less; be exact
in all things, and then you need have no fears as to
results.

                  SCRIEL's APPARATUS.

  T0make the above, procure two stout white flint
    glass bottles with narrow necks. Have two good
corks which fit the necks well; drill holes in them
and insert (as shewn) a glass tube bent at right angles
at each end, andl cover the long end of the tube with
fine flaniiel. Stand 1)0th the bottles in lipped saucers.
  The lprocedure is as follows:-cut up the tobacco
iato fra g-nents alld p)at it in the bottle A-which
,already contains some aflioniacal. ether. Stand the



B

 





                          2

bottle in the saucer filled with cold water and allow it
to remain for some minutes. Now fill the saucer of B
with warm water, and at once transpose the two bottles
in their relative saucers.
  The ether vapour, which is formed in the bottle A,
will then force the solution of nicotine through the fine
flannel which covers the long end of the glass tube
and which almost reaches to the bottom of A, directly
into the bottle B.
  Repeat this whole operation for a dozen times or
more successively, and until the tobacco is entirely
exhausted and nothing more passes from bottle to
bottle. The nicotine can then be determined by volu-
metric analysis.
    quotes
  1. Before connecting the tube to the empty bottle B
a small quantity of ether should be put into that
vessel to expel the air.
  2. Tie the corks down upon the bottles with wire;
let this be done tightly, and in the same manner as
champagne bottles are wired.

       IIINTS TO THE TRADE, &c.


MEMORANDA AND HINTS FOR TOBACCO MANUFACTURERS.

T HE following introductory and tabulated remarks
    are intended to be applied to every department of
every tobacco factory in the whole world:-
  1. It is a well known fact that a scrap of stale or
      partly smoked tobacco, or a little tobacco ash,
      or a few bread crumbs,-or in fact almost any
      foreign substance not estimated for in the manu-
      facture of tobacco,-will spoil, in some way or
      other, any batch of tobacco in process, in which
      the said foreign element may find itself.
 2. It should, therefore, be made an arbitrary law
      that no food shouild be allowed to be consumed
      within the buildings occupie
