JUTE CULTURE.

The most recent Investigations Of
the jute plant favor the idea that its
culture is valuable adjunct to the
cultivation of cotton, rs its odors,
though not distasteful to human
beings, have the property of driving
away destructive insects. The soil
and climate that suit rice suit iute,
and vice versa. Sugar cane is con-
sidered desirable plant for sue
cession crop. So here we have four
valuable crops, cotton, ri ce, jnte and
sugar cane, which may be termed
the semi-tropic rotation of crops.
In California the seed is sown in
May or April. The rapid growth
of the plant is remarkable, reaching
its full height and blooming in July.
The stems then harden, and in Oc-
tober it is ready for cutting. The
fibre is found in the bark only, and
is prepared in India by a rotting
and a beating process which, it has
been estimated, lessons its strength
more than one-half The recent IL
vention of a machine to prepare jute
fibre from the stems at one opera
ton is, therefore, of great impor-
lance, and must effect revolution
in the whole system. The difficulty |
heretofore has been in the presence |
of too much resinous or gnmmy
matter, making the tibres cohere to
each other.
The expenses of cultivation are
less than half that of cotton, while
its profits are said to be twice as
great. The yield is from 1000 to
5000 pounds per acre. This fibre
has usually sold in New York for
from six to eight cents per pound.
The iute plant IS useful in many
ways. The seeds make oil cakes,
the root and woody stems are used
for paper, the bark for fibre, the
soft tips of the sprouts for herbs
and greens. The most important
use is for fibre, but the tow and
waste makes paper of great beauty
and strength. III e sbre has many
peculiar qualities. 1t has .uti-
ful lustre, and takes color wonder
fully well. 1t also mikes with six
cotton, hair and wool, with eqnal
facility. These qualities make it
certain that jute will continue to
be a leading textile.
Jute was first known in gunny
bags, but successive Improvements
in methods Of working it have made
it of use in dress goods Innings, car
petings, burlaps, and many other
fabrics. We will add, in conclusion,
that India. in 1874, exported nearly
| ,000, 10000 pounds of lutte fibre.
rs early as 1870 the United States
laid for goods manufactured either
n whole or in part, Of jute, over l
800, 900. There are now some
in The United States,
md they are said 10 be successful.

Dear brother Joe: I've set me down
To write Ia you 10 letter
This Is leaving me In tolerable health
I'm in hopes twill find you in better.
There is no news, nothing talked about,
Except the disaflection
OF the four committeeman
Who will not call AN election.
I've heard of monarchies and crowns
Ofkings and queens a ruling,
But never thought a people free
Would bear with 50 much fooling.
They're mighty wise those "great big four
And 50 brave they will not bulge.
They say, ave are 81 big and great
We are going To pick the Judge"
"You shall not vote except you say
Ioull vote for our man stuart,
You need not ask us any more
We've promised not tO do IT,"
like To see such steady minds
IL shows they are not brittle,
But then you see my old mans mad
Cause he is all for Little.
He says he Is II Democrat
And likes to have rotation
In office, believing IL for the good
OF this free and mighty nation.
He's not alone the neighbors all
Say there's got To he fair play
so the poll will he opened that all may vOt
For their choice ON saturday.
Now Tammany's chiefs got reconciled
With the voters of New York city
His mantle of discOr,i's fallen of
But it's fallen on our committee.
But now IN close, we all are well
Come and see me when you can,
With love To Lucy, To children too,
