11 FACTS AUK CHIELS THAT WINNA DING, AND DAUHNA BE DISPUTED."— BaBNB. rpi.YlEb change, and with them m-in-f ners and tastes The unimpea ■liable evidence of statistics of traJe tell U:i that people readily appreciate a good and pure article in preference to a cL-ar I and inferior one. This has never b?en so clearly demonstrated as in the records of the Customhouse. In 1885 Ceylon Tea made its first appearance in New Zealand That year the total quantity imported from all sources wus 4,412,t)671b, of which China supplied 2,487,6611 b, or 60£ per cent. India supplied 130,6111 b, or 3J per cent. Ceylon supplied 493H>, ° r 001 percent That INSIGNIFICANT LIITLB SHIPMENT <o this colony was so appreciated that people asked for more— and got it. 5 years later (1890) the imports stood thus : — China supplied 076.2401 b, o r 25] per cent India supplied 057,902! b. or 17 percent Ceylon supplied 363,1371 b, or 9^ p.c. The total imports for that year from all sources were 3.849, 1051 b. It was this year that Suratura Tea was introduced, and became a boon and a blessing to humanity. How it has established itself in the homes of the people may be seen by the manner in which it has dietauccd ail rivals, and materially assisted to dr.'ve China teas out of consumption, In I8i)6 Ufiina .'applied 58,9411 b, or 1] percent. India cur plied 9 ■»2,64t51b, or 20£ percent. Cbjlon supplied 2,310,4151 b, or 55] per cent. No other article of domestic cinsump* tion can show anything approaching this. Suratura Tea is picked and packed in Ceylon, thereby preserving its freshness J aiid aroma until it reaches the consumer — wlrch accounts for its economy and purity. Su-fttura Tea is NOT blended with India or Clinift TVr.s. pkize puultby. SITTINGS from the Champion Laying Strains for Sale.
