156 Whenever I suggested to Americans the probability that their unclear of Southern coast was wall suited for the culture of the olive, the suggestion was met with merriment. "there is no one in this country," they would say, "who looks fifteen or twenty years ahead." (The time it takes for an olive tree to come into profitable bearing) "Every body here supposes that long before so many years have expired he shall have sold his land very advantageously, or that hos business will have taken him to some other part of the country, or that he shall have made his fortune &retired from business." The same objection does not lie against the culture of tea, for which the uplands of Georgia appeared well adapted.
