Pertaining to Hemp.

To The Editor Of The Tribune
The cultivation of Hemp IS & simple farming
operation as easily understood as the culture of
Oats rich logmy. triabe soil is the best the
average produce in Kentucky IL one ton from three
acres but il is not uncommon to produce ten 10
twelve cwt TO the acre.
The great obstacle encountered IN getting the
crop to market. is the cost Of Breaking, which is
estimated at SIS 10 so the ton, requiring the
labor of stout. able bodied men Boys otherwise
useful on farm, make bat poor Roadway IN break
ing Hemp.
The inventive genius of man has been taxed for
fifty years on the subject Of producing machine
or implement. 10 lesson the cost OF breaking Hemp
which the records of the Patent Otice abundsnty
show. Mr. James Anderson, highly respectable
citizen Of Louisville, by. has, for number Of
years given his attention exclusively 70 This sub
iect he being well acquainted and familiar with
all the brakes and machinery heretofore offered Tor
the purpose OF breaking and preparing Hemp. and
after repeated experimental trials on various plans
OF his own conception, spending a large sum Of
money in making these experiments he AZ length
has hit he thinks upon the true principle OF con-
structing q Hemp and Flax Brake, and has made
a regular application for patent for the same.
This Brake is quite simple not expensive In con-
struction is easily made, and is driven by horse,
water or steam power \ model OF n Brake Is
leit al the American II Nsg ~ .HcN-
York for the inspection OF persons taking sn interest
in such things where il will remain few days
The model will be exhibited at the State Agricul-
tursl Fair. 10 be held in this month at Saratoga
Mr. Anderson has also invented new method Of
preparing Hemp or Flax exPedtiously for the
brakes differing in principle from any OF the old
processes OF dew or water-rOttlng. de uses an
aHf8Septic in which the hemp or tax Is STEPPED a
short time, Cess than one day and as soon as Il Is
dry, IL is ready for the brake The antiseptlc be
has heretofore used IS the Sulphate Of Iron, In
solution very wesk-the cost not exceeding hity
cents the ton of Hemp The combination OF the
sulphate with thelAlo1men or other properties IN
hemp produces a most beneficial effect on the Int,
s'reng ttsniHg and preserving Il 50 that IN TACT
Mr. A s process insures durability tending 70 pre-
vent fermentation the cause OF decay.
The farmer, by using Mr.. Andersons Brake and
process OF curing, will be able to get bis crop to
market much earlier than by either OF the old
methods the lint IS OF much greater strength and
of more durability. the Rbrs DOT broken as q the
case when broken on any Of the old brakes and Z
great saving in the weight OF the cleaned hemp. as
no tow Is made. Ditto with Flax. Would any
desire farther information. q line 70 James Ander-
