HEMP CULTURE.
The Importance and Value of this Industry
Some Interesting Facts and Figures.

Inc importance and value OF this Industry
Some Interesting Facts and Figures.
To the Editor of the Globe.
1t is a matter of very considerable Importance
to the State of Minnesota to know the fact, if it
is fact, that this is as good State to raise
hemp as wheat. Wheat is exhausting the soil
and we want good alternating crop. Wheat
is liable to over-production, and we want to
diversity our industry. Wheat is liable to fail
two or three years out of every four, and we
want a surer crop. A variety of crops is the
true policy for every farmer who does not want
to risk all his eggs in one basket.
l propose therefore with your consent tp
offer few thoughts upon the subject of hemp
culture in addition to my letter you copied
from the Maysville (not Marysville) Eagle a
few days since.
MIR. John +. Miller, secretary of the st. Paul
Harvester works, estimates that 5000 tons OF
hemp cord will be required this year for bind
ing grain, with a large increase hereafter an
nually.
Now the census of 1870 showed that the en-
tire hemp crop of the United States in that year
was only IL, TAG TONS of which Kentucky pro-
duced 7,777 tons. mostly in the few counties
known as the BLACK Grass" region, where the
Eagle is published. When it is considered that
this hemp is wanted for all kindsaof ropes and
cordage, for bale rope, bagging, ship rigging,
yarns and carpet warps, it will be seen that
there will be little left out of the eleven
thousand tons to make three thousand tons OF
good binders for grain-the amount
which Mr.. Miller estimates will be required
for this year, and his remark that an increased
amount of hemp will have to be raised to sup
ply this new demand will be appreciated. Fol
here is a use of hemp, never before discovered
which alone will be sufficient to consume anG
| utterly use up the entire crop of the Unitec
States every year if its use increases as it il
expected to. Hei etofore it was made int,
cordage and ropes, bagging &C., which lastet
for years. Now here is new use which con
sumes and utterly uses it up in one year.
THE PRICE OF HEMP AND COST OF RAISING.
Kentucky hemp is selling in New York nov
at $3.50 per ton. Good hemp land in Kentuck,
will produce 1000 pounds of clean fibre pc

Wheelockian BlackandiI,

Henry NJ. Knox, public examiner of Mime
sofa, the man who discovered the "hole in the
law" through which county treasurers might
thrust their hands into the public treasury and
rob the people without danger of being pun
ished, has been taking partisan view
of the management of public affairs
in Ramsey county. He could not see any
crookedness in the ring robberies in Mower
county. The culprits in this case were friends
of the Pioneer Press and they must be covered
from unfavorable criticism and punishm ent:
but now the case is changed. The Ram sew
county officials are Democrats, whom the great
organ of ring politicians hates. We know
nothing of the facts in the case. but will rot
be surprised to learn that it is merely o Joe
Wheelockian conspiracy to blackmail some one.

of his conduct as auditor. He writes like a
