A device is provided for filling prefabricated cigarette tubes. The device includes a housing having a tobacco chamber. An elongate trough-shaped tobacco holder is provided in the chamber. A compression bar is movable toward that chamber to form tobacco which has been placed in the tobacco chamber into a tobacco strand. A stop is movable relative to the tobacco holder for defining one end of, and thereby determining the length of, the tobacco strand. A finger or bushing is arranged at one end of the chamber for supporting a cigarette tube, and a slide is movable relative to the housing for inserting a tobacco strand into the cigarette tube. The length of the plug of tobacco which is formed can be adjusted to fit cigarette tubes of different lengths by adjusting the length of the tobacco chamber and the length of the compression bar. The invention does this by virtue of the fact that the stop defining one end of the tobacco chamber is adjustable in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tobacco holder and that the compression bar has a stationary section and a plurality of extension sections of different lengths for selective cooperation with the stationary section to determine a length of the compression bar.
