A New Zealanders Complaint to the Ceylon Tea Growers' AssociationIMITATION is the sheerest form of j flattery, and when the copyist embarks | in his nefarious business he invariably: • selects some article with an established reputation to (simulate. The genuine article suffers in two ways : It loses business by the substitution of the fraud, aud • loses character by its inferiority. The Tea Plauters' Association of Ceylon has had its attention drawn to what is going on in this colony. The following extract from a letter discussed by the Association from a gentleman in the South Island of New Zealand indicates what is going on iv this colony. The letter appears in the Overland Ceylon Observer of 16th June, 1898 :— "Iv the first place much Tea is sold iv New Zealand under the name of Ceylon which is nothing more than ' BLENDS OF LOW CLASS GRADES WITH CHINA, FIJI AND OTHKB POOR TEAS.' Theseare packed locally aud SOLD AS CEYLON. "I have beeu able to trace one instuice in which locals-packed Teas, made up in lead packets, have been labelled ' Ceylon,' and the labels bear the imprint of 'C. B. Hall, Printer, Colombo.' On enquiry I am assured that no such printer exists, hence the label is NOTHING LESS THAN AFORGERY for the purpose of giving the only available guarantee of a genuine Ceylon packed packet, viz,, THE PRINTER'S NAME." The best safeguard for the public is to rigorously demand to be supplied with a Tea that is above suspiciou. SURATURA TEA has no rival in this respect. No one has yet had the hardihood to attempt tricks on it, as its ageuts are too jealous of its high reputation to give a chance to imij tators, aud the imitators know this aud are wise iv their generation. Therefore SURATURA TEA may be purchased with contideuce. 616
