A woman carries a mattress given by the government in Pinar del Rio, Cuba September 24, 2008. Hurricanes Gustav and Ike destroyed up to 2 million pounds of Cuba's best tobacco, but reserves of the leaf should cover demand for the island's premium cigars for the next year, a tobacco executive said on Wednesday.
