Tea Grown in the United states.

This year 10000 pounds of choice tea
will be shipped from what is, as yet,
the only tea farm in the western hemi-
sphere, which is located at Summerville,
S. G. In the face of difficulties that OF
times seemed insurmountable, but on the
other hand, with kindly assistance from
the United States government, the Sum-
mervilIe tea farm has arrived at a point
where it can offer serious competition
with the best grades of tea shipped from
China, India, Formosa or Java. But,
above all, it has been demonstrated that,
barring the question of labor, the finest
tea can be successfully grown at home,
and there is nothing that gladdens the
heart of an American more than the dis
covery that he can enter into competition
in a field hitherto considered as being
beyond his ability.
