Since it has been admitted that the
practical cultivation of the tea plant in
South Carolina is failure, would it not
be well to remove the young plants to
Louisiana, where soil, climate and every
thing else is in its favor? 1t grows lux
uriantly in our hammock lands on the
jackson railroad, having been fully tested
by Manard and others in the parish of
Tangipahoa. Twenty acres in tea plants
would be all-suficient TO give it a fair
trial, and the expenditure need not exceed
twenty-five hundred to three Thousand
dollars per annum.
The Prairie Farmer, in late issue, dis
course as follows:
The remaining question to be solved is:
Can tea be grown in this country as a
profitable market crop? The cultivation
of the plant is as simple as that of the
gooseberry. The plants only need to be
set in rows, thoroughly titled and proper
ly pruned to induce low, compact growth
and an abundance Of shoots No leaves
should be picked until the fourth year
from planting, to insure robust, healthy
and well established growth, so that they
will endure the strain Of successive strip
pings; for, under the best conditions, the
leaves are picked several times each year.
What are these conditions? In the first
place, rich, loamy soil il indispensable,
and the strength of the land should be
sustained by fertilizers. The climate
must be warm, for, although the plant will
endure zero chill, it thrives best where
the summers are long and where the tenn
perature il never lower than six or eight
degrees below freezing. The last necessa-
RI condition is abundant moisture: In
India the rainfall is from so to 100 inches
per annum, and it Is doubtful whether the
leaves would form with sufficient rapidity
to make this crop successful in any part
Of the country where the annual rainfall
Il less than go inches, and even this should
be didused pretty equally over the spring
and summer months. OF course, where

a bonanza in advertisements. First a
good sized subsidy to the Oregonian
Publishing Co., from the managers of
the fair, for the solid columns of the
Oregonian and Telegram devoted daily
for sevesal weeks to its description and
praise; then probably liberal payment
from the leading firms In Portland for
the wholesale advertising given them,
and finally as if presenting upon the
