What Cigarettes are Made of
The Philadelphia Record notes several New York factories produce long-cut smoking tobacco from low-cost, improvised materials. Workers harvest scraps and stumps moistened with ammonia solution to extract nicotine and tar, pressed into cakes, sliced, bleached, dried, and flavored with extracts. The cheap cigarettes rely on this process for bulk production.
