50 Green Fly, 
4 Ibs, but that cannot be helped. In some casesthe 
leaf gets so hard that the coolies get sore fingers 
from picking it. But the leaf makes very pretty tea 
and fetches very good prices. It is a known fact 
that green fly always goes uphill, and never down. 
Hoe and clean all pieces affected, and all pieces 
just above. Do not allow any shade in the 
shape of jungle: green fly cannot stand hot 
sun, and if apiece of tea is kept thoroughly 
clean, will soon disappear, or any how work up 
hill and when it gets to the top of the ridge 
disappear, And if the tea has been properly 
treated a splendid flush will come out directly 
it leaves, which will nearly make up for the loss, 
unless the blight is really exceptionally bad. 
Pieces have been left unpicked ; but the flush takes 
longer to come through, and the result is not so 
good, besides loss of good tea. Bushes are very 
often regularly shrivelled up, the leaves half black, 
one month, and looking as healthy as possible 
the month after. And sometimes, a cut-down 
plant, without a shoot 3 inches long, one month, 
directly the blight leaves will come on splendidly,
