FACTS ABOUT TEA SERIES—No. S What ‘Orange Pelioe’ Means Many buyers of tea have come to ask for ‘Orange Pekoe’ believing that it signifies fine quality. This is not, however, neces- sarily the case. In the trade ‘Orange Pekoe” is only a name given to the first leaf below the bud or tip on any Indian or Ceylon tea bush. An ‘Orange Pekoe’ leaf grown at a high elevation usually possesses a very fine flavor. If, however, the plant is grown at a low elevation, it may still be ‘Orange Pekoe’ but also be of very poor quality. The consumer’s only safeguard is to buy a tea of recognized goodness. High grown ‘Orange Pekoes’ comprise a large part of every blend of “SALADA” and give to “SALADA” its unequalled flavor. "SALADA” LISTERINE Throat Tablets are now evailable.
