Harvesting Ramie in China.

Ramie, or China grass, which has of
late years become known in Europe as a
valuable textile, is widely grown in
Western China. MIR. Hosie, in the last
trade report from Wenchow, describes
how it is harvested. The stems, when
ripe, are cut down, made into bundles,
and carried from the fields to the house
of the grower, where they are STEPPED in
water, and the bark, with the fibre, re-
moved by hand. In the Eastern provinces
different method is practiced. When
the stems are ripe the peasant removes
the bark in the field in very simple, in
genious and profitable manner. Selling
each stem about six inches above ground
between the thumb and fingers of both
hands, few inches apart, he gives a
smart push downward and forward, be-
tween his two hands. He then inserts
the forefnger of his left hand in the frac-
ture and draws the bark downward to
the root where it readily detaches itself.
In the same way the remaining bark and
upper part of the stem, which he holds
in his right hand, are removed, and by a
simple brush of the hand from the root
end of the bark upward the leaves and
stems are dislodged, and the bark is
ready for future manipulation. BY this
means several inches of bark and fibre
are saved in comparison with the produce
resulting from the cutting down of the
stems, and, as length of staple adds much
more to the value of the fibre, the plan
here pursued deserves some attention in
those countries where the cultivation of
"Boehmeria' is of great commercial
value. This is the case in India, where
labor is cheaper than in China. Another
advantage of the system is that the u.s-
carded leaves and stems remain on the
field and help to manure the two other
crops. London Times.

Floating Tendencies of Fat Men

The story of the fat man who fell over
board in New York harbor and fioated
around for an hour or two until he was
mistaken for whale and towed ashore
unhurt has set the old watermen and
wharfmen all agog with reminiscent talk.
They tell peculiar tales Of happenings to
fat men which have occurred under their
eve, and in which they took part.
During the war Mr.. McClain was q
night watchman on the piers at Washing
ton avenue. One dark night Govern
ment receiving vessel came up the river,
and when it neared the Washington pier
two sailors jumped overheard to make
their escape. One was a gigantic fellow,
and the other a man of medium size.
Before jumping overheard the fat man
fastened 5000 in double gold eagles in a
leather belt which was strapped around
his waist. He could not swim stroke.
When they touched the water he found
cred around, but did not sink. Shortly
afterward a tremendous swell carried him
under the pier, where he was knocked
senseless by the piling. When the body
was found, several hours afterward, il
was not at the bottom of the stream, but
plump against the planks Of the pier,
| with the head above the water. The
man never sank, but was drowned while
| insens;ble. Saperstitious sailors conclud

The Buffalo and the Great Western
Plains.

When in his westward movement the
buffalo came to the semi-civilized inhab-
itants of the Mississippi system of val
leys, he brought great plenty of animal
food to the people, who had long been
in good measure destitute of such re-
sources, for they had no other domesti.
Gated animals save the dog. Not yet
firmly fixed in the agricultural art, these
tribes appear, after the coming of the
buffalo, to have lapsed into the pure saw
agery which hunting brings. To favor
the pasturage of these wild herds the In
dians adopted the habit of burning the
prairies. These fires spread to the forests
on the east, killing the young trees which
afforded the succession of wood, gradu-
ally extending the pasturage area of the
wild herds until the larger portions of
the Western plains eastward to central
Ohio and Kentucky. probably even into
the Carolinas, and southwark to the Ten
nessee River, had been stripped of their
original forests, making way for the vast
throngs of these creatures which ranged
the country at the time when we first
knew it. With the rehabilitation of the
hunters habit, and with the nomadic
conditions which this habit necessarily
brings, came more frequent contests be.
tween tribes and the gradual decadcnce
of the slight civilization which the peo.
pie had acquired. = Scribner,

Terrible Grip of the Abalone Shell

One of the most remarkable shells
which the National Museum exhibits is
that of the abalone of the Pacific coast.
In that part of the world the abalone
fishery is business of Importance, mas
much as the Chinese are extravagantly
fond of this interesting delicacy. Chinese
fishermen are chiefly engaged in the in.
dustry, and their manner of prosecuting
it is to go along the shore in boats be-
tween the tides and keep sharp eye
open for the Frey. The abalone had but
one shell, resembling somewhat gigan-
tic clam shell, and is found attached to
the rock. In seeking its capture the alb
alone fisherman steals upon the game and
thrusts a stick beneath the edge that it
lifts to take in nourishment. The mo-
ment the abalone perceives the intrusion
of the stick it shuts down tightly upon
it, but is promptly pried off the rock and
deposited in the tisherman's boat. Now
and then it happens that Chinaman gets
his hand in the clutch of an abalone
shell, and in such case, unless he has
friends by-and these fishermen usually
travel alone-he is lost. For the abalone
has grip that nothing short of horse
power can detach, and thus it happens
that every now and then on the Pacific
coast an unfortunate celestial is found
drowned with one of bis hands inextric,
ably clasped by specimen of this re
markable univalvc. - Washington Star.

Manufacture of Paper Barrels.

After three years of experimental
work, an English company has succeeded
in producing barrels which are able to
compete favorably with barrels made of
wood. The paper barrels are used at
present principally for the carriage of
gunpowder, mining fuses, fruit, flowers,
molasses, paint, cement, matches, chemi-
Gals, dyes, asbestos, sugar, size and
extract of meat. The materials used in
making the barrels are waste paper, card
board and Qor the better quality old
sacks. When cardboard is used it is
soaked or boiled for six hours, and after
wards treated in the same manner as the
other raw material This is carefully
sorted and put into a rag engine. or
beater, where it is beaten and torn to
pieces b1 series of knives for about an
hour and half 1t is afterwards mixed
with water until pulp of uniform con-
sistency is gained. This is rolled, joined,
shaped and dried, and the barrel is finally
covered with hoops. Before the tops
and bottom are put in, the barrels are
painted with waterproof composition,
made of linseed oil and rosin, for ordinary
purpose barrels, and with special
varnish where they are used for food
products. The standard size made is
sixteen and one-half inches in diameter
by twenty-eight inches long. The prices
at which these barrels can be produced
enables them to compete favorably with
wooden barrels; barrel costing thirty.
four cents in wood can, when made OF
paper, be sold for twenty-eight cents.
One great feature is that there is nc
waste with the process, all "wasters' be-
ing beaten up into pulp again.
