Tobacco
Tobacco. The growth of tobacco was formerly prohibited in any part of the United Kingdom, and any person growing it was liable to a penalty of 10l. for every rood grown, recoverable by penal action.

As to Ireland the Irish Tobacco Act, 1907 (7 Edw. 7, c. 3), largely removed the restrictions as to growth, etc., and similar provision is now made for Scotland and England by the Finance (1909-10) Act, 1910, which repeals the two Acts of Charles II. and the Act of 1831, and by s. 83 (5) entirely removes all prohibition or restraint on the growth, making, or curing of tobacco in England and Scotland, and to the same time imposes [s. 83 (2)] an excise duty of 5s. for a licence to grow, cultivate...
