Why Tea Costs More«*

The Second Article of a series that Every Housewife Should Read. It is indeed hard for the Netf Zealand housewife to realise the remarkable changes that have oc-' curred in the tea trade within the last eight months—changes which .have resulted in greatly increased ' prices. . As" was shown in the first article of this series, tea is in great ' demand as the beverage' of the 25. million men who are under arms to-day, due to the fact that it is the most stimulating and ;invigor- _ ating drink—-easily transported and * . easily handled. . ' But there is another element, which exerts almost as ereat ■ an influence in the steadily rising . cost of tea. This factor, is Russia, with its enormous population of over 160 millions,'which, at the stroke of a pen—in almost a single night—has been turned into nation •of tea drinkers. What this means is readily seen when one considers that until Sep- , tember last the Russian people consumed less than lib. of tea per ■ headper annum; whereas in bur own Maoriland the average is ov?r 74 lbs, of tea per head per •annum. , Moreover, the money previously spent on other beverages by Russia is available for. tea; Hence, at the tea auctions, enormous quan-i titles have been,bought by Russian representatives, who readily pay. increasing prices to secure what they want. ' ' As. a result, tea to-day costs the blender in New Zealand an aver, age of 2id. to 3d. per lb.' more than eight months ago, and, unless he is to. face an enormous loss, he. . has only two alternatives—to reduce his quality or increase hi». prices. .. Either course is reasonable, and there is no escape—unless, before' .the , war,, he..was , changing excessive price.''for '.inferior "tea,,; If so, he is still able to sell the" same grade at the old-figure and • probably still make' a good profit. • "Amber Tips" policy .has always been to give the best value, tie", world can produce at the most reasonable prices. It has been decided to continue this policy, therefore the price has been slight.: iy increased—by 2d. per^lb. Although ■ advised by many fo : reduce costs by the admixture of harsher, inferior and x loss healthful teas, the proprietors are determined to. i maintain that standard of quality and value which has made "Amber TJips" the • most widely sold blend in the Dominioii • to-day—the most largely sold blend of' any country in the world in proportion to population. Thus, if the name "Amber Tips" is on the packet, you know that it 'contain! the finest, purest and best tea that can' . be. produced for the money—that it contains a tea which is so pure and healthful that it .can be used by children, and by .those with the weakest digestion, without harm. It is also well to remember that •"Amber Tips" gives more cups of deli* cious, fragrant tea of delightful flavour, Thua it still costs you less than othersit is still the cheapest tea .in the Dominion, even though.the prices have been ' elightly increased.* : We believe that the housewives o£ ' New Zealand would rather secure the finest.value that can be given—even, at a slightly increased price—than that . quality and values should be cheapened. It is now for you to.show whether' you approve of this decision or not.' ■ •■'. " ioo'
