Tobacco use trends rise with king size cigarettes leading gains
The department notes 1955 consumption near 414 billion, up from 402 billion in 1954 and 4357 billion in 1952, with increased use of king size filter tip cigarettes. Employment and incomes are cited as factors lifting consumption while higher state cigarette taxes may push prices up. Pipe tobacco, roll your own, and chewing tobacco volumes decline, snuff nudges higher, cigars total about 6.1 billion, up 2 percent. A gravel layer on window boxes protects against rain splatter.
