least remind the Times of Ceylon of the danger of over-reaching itself and damaging instead of benefiting the Ceylon tea trade by its asseverations, in season sad out of season, of the purity and wholesomeness of tsas from Ceylon. There is a danger in preaching one's virtues too frequently.
Our contemporary may be good advertiser, but he is weak in his logic. The plague after all is only the result of accumulations of dirt and filth, and, seeing that the largest proportion of tea in China is the result of "cottage cultivation," it stands to reason that it mus: be made in insalubrious surround- ings.'
The attempt to connect the plague with the cottago cultivation is too far-fetched to escape the ob. satvation of even the casual reader. If the plague existed in toa-growing districts there might bearemote possibil ity of the tea being affected. As a matter of fact, the plugne is not endemic in the tes growing districts. know, plague bas never appeared in Hupeh, Fukien or Hunan, the tea- It is growing districts of Chia. endemic only in Yunzon and Kwang tung, two of the southern provinces of the vast empire.
