RAISING TEA IN AMERIOA. J)lL SIEPAII'DS 10XIEJIMENTS IN SOUTH CAlIOIiNA. The Question ot'P 01o1ie Not Settled -1'flmoris to Establish the New In dustry ia the Soulh1. rhe proposition has been maintained that tea could be rodeed in America, and recent eXper iments seem to prove it, says the New York Sun. Por' many years it wis not suppoSed that tea could be grown successfully in Itdiai, but since 1851 it has been domon trated that Indian tea is not only good, but also that it is a strong rivatl in the markets of the world of Chinese tea. Tile climate in the States South of New England corresponds very closely with that of the ludian tea regions, and this is especially true of the section about Charleston, S. C., whero the only puersisteUt efort to giow tea in the United States has been timade. Th animual ainufall is a little less than int either .1 apan or Ceylon, ond the extremes of heat and cold air greater, bitt otherwiso the condition, are very similiar. Tea plants have been grown in a desultory fashion for a great many years in various parts of the South, and some of themn Immay be. sen hal wild to-day inm tihe overgrown gtrdenl of the whito planters. where a little tea is raised in a rude and ignormat. man ner. Somot Southern planter i ported tea plants long before the war, and their efforts to introduce the new erop were paralyzed by the war. Thle 1 upoverished l plaLters negl cted the g. ar'dens after'wari, 1but the tea plait., flourishedi in a way. yelding cropti Iof doubtful qjual ity. One of thiem'ci$ eaIV tea gardens were piamnu ill itoO by a Mm'. Smith was le'ayetteville, N. C., amid for a timo it lourishmed. A recent visit to time plice showed time neglect into which the tom plais have fallen. though good tea is still mado oin the place by the widow of the original planter. For over twenty-Iive yeai' time plants have had to strug gie for ex istence among briers, wild thrbs amid pJas, but they lave heL'ld thilri' own io 1iiavely that, thley alt the lutost eoll spicills growths i r the amrdenl.

Many of thebe teas are not en joyed in this country, and the mort delicate, llIter leaves, such as art grown in Pinehurst, are preferred tu those imported. Many of the Japanese teas are pt-epared for the market in the most artistie manner anld the pro cess of curing is conducted with the greatest care. Some varities of tbe teMs possess peculiar and delicate flavors and considerable skill is to quired in curing and pacRng the leaves %o as bot to destroy or lobe the flao'r.

T1ne SoutLIILi is an abuni nt supply13 of the very best hlp from ich to securei' mill Ioperativyes. An 'estigation on this point, will con1 ice the mlost skeptical. A New Eung 1(d mill owner lately stated thbat, to t ihat New -'nglana mill hlp was in y way' sulperior to Southern, was dm to bay that the lower classes of for nors ar-e superior to the native An >-Saxonl Americans. Ihalf a centuiry o New E'ngland mills were' operIated native A mericans -daugh ters of tihe all farmers iln tihe neighborhood of lumills: but the incoming of lFrench nadians and others drove the Amer mn girls out of the mills. Ther'e is no0 nger of tis in the South, at least for my years to come. The supply of -5sible operatives, eager for' the op r'tunity to earn a living by working cotton mills, is today sufilcient, to LIpI threec or four' times as many mills we have, provided these mills are I, clustered too closely In any 0110 lo tIty. Trho increase in the help iup will bo almost as great as t ic in 3ase iln miills for' many years. Trhese 1)p)1o are capable of acquiring the chost skill required in cotton mianu ~tur'ing: they are docile, not given str'k.'s, and ias a class are anxious to d a ora and willing to accepjt, mfuchl ver' wages than Northern operatives chompelled to have in order to live. tais point it must be remembered at nature has made it possible to live the South at a ver'y much lowcer cost in in the North, because of the lower it of fuel and clothes, the cheapness t,.: whieb food can be prioduicd, andh 3 abiundance and cheapness of build f mateorials.

In fullness of timue the South's oippor ity has comoc. Its own people have ionstraited their uniusual ability in on manufacturig. The pro0llt~l in have bon suffloiently large to turn the attention of this entire section very largely to this industry. The ablest finanlet's i the South, the nuost con servativo bankers, the general iner chants and the farmers are all now in vesting freely In cotton mills. The :1,000,000 spindles the South now has in operation is scarcely 4 per cent. of the number of spindles in the wold-latest reports giving the total as 85,000 000 although the South produces ove'r 66 per cent. of the world's cotton crop. There are abundant roasons, easily un derstood by any unan who will take the time to investigate, why the South was unable after the disastrous losses of the war to take up industrial pursuits until about 1880. It is mainly during the last livo years that the greatest progress has boon made, and every year is add ing increased momentum to this move ment.' T1[' lUTURi, Ob' Siig gouTiH. "Looking to Central anl South Atneiica and to Asia antl Japan by the cutting of the Nicaragua canal, for a market for American cotton goods. the South's position is impregnable. It has every possible advantage that can be asked for tihe production of cotton goods at the lowest )Ossible COst. Its advan tages for I istrilbution are but little in forior to those of the North, and what tsver disadvantages it has in this way will be eliminated under tle general )rogress which is being made. No one Ca1 llpossibly any longer question the South's future position in the cotton man ufacturing world. The rapid de velopment of the textile inaustry in the South does not nucessarily Involve its deerCVso i1 New E ngland or Great Brit ain. lvon shoulI these hold their present business and continue to oper ate as many spindles as they do today, tihe na'ural inerease whici the ever grow ing demands of the world require inust be met by the South. It Is possi ble that Olhina and Japan may become factors in this inlustry, but if they do the reduced cost at which they will p.toduce goods will simply be an addi tional force to dtrive the capital in New Iuland anld i3ritish mills to the South as the only place which can hope to neet competition from mills in Japan and Chirm, provided this industry hould develop largely in those coun t-ies. 'The South's position is safe. It is onlyi a question as to whether the mill owners of othber setiots shall leave the South to develop this indlustry with its own capital and by its own labor, or join in the work andi thus secure a pitrt of the prolit s and all sectious he mu tually hnlited by an interchange of iulvestalments." - - - 'ile l;tw of the harvest is to reap 'nore thati you sow.
