Moreover, the flower contains only
about two per cent caffein, while the
leaf contains as much as four per

Tea leaves must be picked one by

collected much more simply. The

Ever since the days of isolation
we have been taught to believe that
the foreign or Occidental world
sought to obtain supremacy by gain
ing possession of the public lands.
Consequently we have been somewhat
conservative in our ideas of the ad-
ministration of lands. We do not
permit aliens to own our lands, but
we do permit them to use the sur
face soil for almost any purpose, un-
