ments to plant largely Of ramie on the Oak.

respondent of the City Item, who visited Mr..
Sewell, says: His enthusiasm over tue fu-
ture of ramie is unabating." The general has
received news of the formation of another
company, to be called the Ramie Spinning aud
Manufacturing Company, who have eignified
their intention to erect q factory in New Or.
leans, if Louisiana planters will go into the
cultivation of ramie or a scale sufficiently ex-
teusive to warrant the undertaking. letter
to the General from the vice.president of the
International Fibre Company, Of New York,
contains the following:
Our factory, I am happy to say, is all com.
pleted; we have just bought several tons of
ramie in the London market at El0 per ton.
Must confess, however, that it does not come
up to your Louisiana ramie; SO hurry up and
get your crop growing, and you will find that
you have no trouble in dlsRpsing of it to us at
a higher figure, and make Honey thereby.
The General says that there is 80 per cent
protection duty which would be added to the
price quoted, and oursa better article than
that grown in India.
The planters of Louisiana would do well to
encourage this enterprise, as it adds another
to the list of diversified crops, and they should
by all means take advantage OF this industrial
opportunity.-Lake Charles American.
