TEA GROWING
A New Industry Promised II The Labo
Problem is Solved.

Special to the Leader.
New York, April 11.-Experiments
now in progress show that tea can be
grown in Louisiana, and the crop is
likely to become a standard one in the
State if the labor necessary for hand
ling the tea can be obtained. The ex
periments have been conducted at the
Audubon experiment station in this
city by Professor w. G. Stubbs.
Dr. Stubbs imported a number of the
best varieties of tea plants and now
has $50 growing on the farm. He has
met with complete success with them
and has demonstrated their adaptable
ity to the soil and climate of Louisi-
ana.
Here in Louisiana we are in bet
ter condition successfully to cultivate
tea," he says, than in South Carolina,
where tea culture is practical and fl
nancial success"
There are number of tea plants, or
rather tea shrubs, growing in Lafayette
DQudlc anu Olhtl puullC pdl Nd III LNCW
Orleans, some of them ten years old
and all in thoroughly healthy condi
ton. They have been grown only for
ornaments. The shrubs crown at the
Audubon experiment station for COM
mercial purposes are all equally
healthy and they will produce this
year considerable crop of tea if it is
gathered. Dr. Stubbs will be able in a
very short time to determine the cost
of production and the profit likely to
be returned from the cultivation of tea
in Louisiana.
Taking the expense and returns of
the Shepherd experiment at Summer
vile, S. c., DR.. Stubs is convinced that
tea will prove a far better and more
profitable crop for Southern Louisiana
than cotton, more certain and less liza
BILE to injury from unfavorable atmos-
pheric conditions.
The cost of raising the tea plant is
infinitesimal. The great expense is in
the picking and preparing of the
leaves; and this, DR.. Stubbs confesses,
is serious problem.
In South Carolina the work is done
by negro labor, but the negroes have to
be trained for long time in order to
do the work properly. 1t is possible
that cotton pickers may, with a little
training, be converted into good tea
pickers. The negro is the best cotton
picker known. and acquires in the
course of time the greatest dexterity in
taking the cotton from the balls. The
tea picking is somewhat different, re
.quiring greater delicacy Still the ex-
perience of the negro In the cotton
fields will naturally fit him for the tea
plantation.
At the same time DR.. Stubs believes
that it would be better to have some
other kind of labor than the negroes
1t is possible that the Chinese or Ma
Mia men (Filipinos,) so numerous in
Louisiana might serve.
The doctor will be able to give some
definite figures as to the care of pick.
ing and preparing the tea leaves for
market in few months. His present
estimate is that the tea can be cul-
tivated and fully cured and prepared
for market at 27 cents pound. at
which figure it will return a handsome
profit at the present price.

MAY NOT BATTLE
 OVER GILLIAN NOTE

Buenos Ayres, via Galveston, Tex, De- cember 1.-The status of the Argentine Chilian question has not changed. Senor Portela, the Argentine minister at San tiago de Chilli will today hand the Gillian government the reply of Argentine to Chili's last test note. Official circles hold to the belief that a satisfactory solution of the questions in dispute will not be long in presenting itself. The local news agency says it considers the negotiations already have passed their most deli cate stage. It has been shown that the cause for war does not exist, though there may in some quarters exist d de- sire to provoke war.
 Both countries, however, are actively preparing for a struggle. A decree just issued invites officers of the national have been mobilized. The work of arm ing the Argentine transports for war service has begun.
 Dispatches received here from San tiago says a prominent official there has declared to his friends that the basis for pacific and honorable arrange ment between Chili and Argentina will be arrived at shortly leaving the de- tails to be attended to later.
 According to the Tiempo, no arrange ment of the existing difficulties is pos sible if Chili refuses to accept the mod ifcations suggested by Argentine to the two important paragraphs in the original Chilian note
