TEA CULTURE IN THE SOUTHERN STATES.
from The Gardcnerf MonthlH


There have been singular mistakes made from
the first III regard to tea culture IN the South Some
twenty-five years the Government thought IL would
like 10 know whether the Chinese tea wOId grow in the
south ana they sent agent To China Ia got seeds At
that very time hundreds OF tea trees growing In the
South producing seeds an; nurserymen raising
plants for their trade both from these seeds and from
tiugs Any nursery could have told the Government
that the tea plant would grow very well III the South and
on a years notice could have furnished under contract
as many plants as desired for distribution But the seed
came plants were raised and distributed everywhere
and that was about the last VI IT, During the last few
wears the Government again tried It's hand Again did
not appeal 10 nuTseymcn or tree growers Of experience
again have the result Ia tie announcement that
1t can't be done"
Now this is all nonsense. The tea plant has been
grown and Is still growing successfully. in
many parts OF tho South Tea has made from the
leaves as good and ne cheap the Chinese made.
Let the Government give but bounty protection. II you
Ike call itfor few years for private enterprise and
we will guarantee OF the Chinese tea plant
tea product America. We do not need hundreds Of
acre. for experiments. Give premiums for acre,
half An acre aud for Of various qualities from the
leaves and give guarantees that these premiums snail
contn year to year, TIL experience is improved
on and there will be reason found against the
permanent OF the enterprise than there
against beet root culture In France That would
have been success but for tho protection hapo-
leon gave IL.
