BUSINESS NOTICES. TRUTH WILL PREVAIL. ■"VTO one will question the accuracy of the Customs JJ~ returns. A paper laid before Parliament this week famishes a table of the consumption of articles in commo-i use, whioh is startling un_l the surroundine circumstances are considered, and the reason only strikes one like tho flash of an electric searchlight. The consumption of Sugar and Tea for the two P" 8 . and tbe dvt >' P*"* 3 P* sr "■"■A'-* of population, is stated thus:— r r -. ~,. . Lbs Duty Toal lbs used per head. per held. Sugar, 18S5, 65,568.960 88.5 "54 su Sugar, 1896, 67,395,840 89.4 Is _|d Increase .. 1,5_6,880 .9 ~~*"_id~ Tea, 1895, 4,472,53 604 2s 6M Tea. 1896, 4,431,480 5.88 g jjjjj Decrease .. 41,048 .16 7^* It seems incredible that while the people used more sugnr they should Consume Less Tea. The ex* planaiion is that the China aud Indian Teas are rapidly going out of consumption, aad the British product, grown in Ceylon, is very properly taking their place. Fbremnst anv-uir Ceylon Teas stands tho UNRIA'ALi.ED SURA-UK... and although there have been doubt-? cast upon the clVims tVuxx havo been m-.de for it. Strcn-jth and AA'onderiul Economy, tho official testiulonv tlwt 41,043 fever pounds of Tea have pr.-.vpd-sufHciei'.t. for an increase of population of 13..17 in the 1896 period is too convincing to admit of further question. ■SURATURA TBA is not Wended with Indian or China tear., nor is it handled irom the time it leaves the stores in Ceylon until it reaches the consumer.
