AMERICAN GROWN TEA

Dr. Chas t. Shepherd, South Caro-
lima gentleman, has experimental fol
years upon his farm at Pinehurst, to de-
| ermine the commercial possibilities Of
zen culture in the United States He
has succeeded in demonstrating that
ca farming is a practical possibility III
the South.
In recent press interview, DR.. shep-
herd said:
The economical raising Of tea here
| IN comparatively inrge scale is con
| fronted by several serious obstacles. AMI
nuch more than the past few years must
he devoted to experimental work before
il satisfactory solution may he obtained.
First is the difference in the price Of
Ia bOr between the tea producing coun-
ries and the Southern States. 1t costs
almost rs much to pick, with us OF fresh
leaf sufficient to make pound Of tea as
it does to raise, pick and pack the same
quantity of the kind sent us from Asia.
There are, therefore. two alternatives
presented to the would be American
tea grower; he must raise the quality of
his product above that of the cheaper
Oriental gardes, or he must reduce the
cost Of production. The former course
has been pursued at Pinehurst, and with
promising results.
For tea garden several things are
essential, as favorable soil conditions, ex-
posture to the sun, protection from win
try blasts and the avoidance of stagnant
wafer about the roots of the plants Then
there are different kinds of tea plants
needing different kinds OF treatment.
me Assam is the finest. 1t derives its
name from the northeastern province of
British India, and was formerly founi
growing there to the height of 80 feet
in the dark steaming jungles along the
banks OF the Brahmaputra river. where
the atmosphere is always damp and frost

and very large, often attaining a length
of seven or more inches, and broad in
proportion.

hurst to cultivate some of this variety,
but the comparatively severe weather to
which this section of South Carolina is
liable makes success seem very remote.
eat the other extreme is the Chinese
variety. This is low, bushy shrub,
low of growth and capable of weathering
snow, frost and ice. The leaves are
dark green, tough and small Between
these two varieties stand the interme-

ones most susceptible to American cul
