/vnv The Second Article of a series that Every Houseutile Should Read. It is indeed bard for the New Zealand housewife to realise the remarkable changes that have occurred 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 I 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 invigorating drink—easily transported and easily handled. f But there is another element which exerts almost as great | an influence in the steadily rising cost of tea. This factor is Russia, with its enormous population of over 160 millions, which, at the sti'oke of a pen—in almost a single jjjgj.t—has been turned into nation of tea drinkers. What-this means is readily seen when one considers that until September last the, Russian people consumed less than 1 lb. of tea per head per annum; whereas in our own Maoriland the average is over 7|lbs, of tea per head per annum. Moreover, the monev previously spent en other beverages by Russia is now available for tea. Hence, at the tea auctions, enormous quan- j titles have been bought by Russian representatives, who readily pay j increasing prices to secure what they want. © As a result, tea to-dav costs the blender in New Zealand an average of 2|d. to 3d. per lb. more 4han eight months ago. and. unless he is to face an enormous loss, he lias only two alternatives —to reduce his quality or increase his prices. Either course is reasonable, and there is no escape—unless, before the war, he was charging an 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. • oVmber Tips" policy has always been to give the best value the world can produce at the most reasonable prices. It has been decided to continue this policy, therefore the price has been slightly increased—by 2d. per lb. Although advised by ma iy to reduce costs by the admixture of "harsher, inferior and less healthful teas, the proprietors are determined to maintain that standard of quality and value which has made''Amber Tips" the most widely sold blend in the Dominion to-day—the most largely sold blend of any i*»untry in the -world in proportion to population. Thus, if the name " Auber-Tips" is on the packet, you know that it contains the finest, purest and best ten that can be produced for the money'-that it contains a tea which is so pure and bealthful that it can he used hy ch 3dren, and by those with the weakest digestion, without harm. £ 'it ..is also well to remember that ■•' AnrberTips" gives 'more cups of deli- ■ ci'ou3.'iragraiittea of deliyhtfivl flavour. Thus it.Stiil costs you loss, than others — itis : stii} the cheapest tea in the .JDoinin- ,. .ion.,, even "though the prices have been «l;»htly increased. -" 'We believe that; the housewives of 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 cheapen'ed. It is now for you to show whether fou approve of this decision or not. WO 1/10, 2/-, 2/2 per lb. | The only tea that has to iiicreaxe Us | prices—the foregoing will tell you u-lr.
