THE FIBER INDUSTRY.
Some Valuable Suggestions On Hemps
and Ramie Culture.

Some Valuable Suggestions On Hemps
and Ramie Culture.
Miscellaneous bulletin No. 1, of the
Statistical Division of the United States
Department of Agriculture, is a report
on the fiber industry, by Mr.. Charles
Richards Dodge, special agent, and in
preparation for which Mr.. Dodge, last
fall, visited several of the flax and
hemp-growing districts of France,
Belgium and Ireland. 1t is an illus
trated pamphlet of over 100 pages,
and is arranged in two parts, the
first relating to flax and hemp culture
there pursued, the author has taken
into account particularly the wants and
condition of the fiber industry in the
United States. The second part is de-
voted to fax, hemp, ramie and jute in
the United States. The fact that
1000, 600 acres are sown to flax in this
country annually, the straw of which is
wasted or burned after the seed has
been removed, while we are importing
millions of dollars worth of fibers every
year, emphasizes the Importance of the
suits of which are detailed in this re-
port. 1t is shown that by better meth
DDS of culture and by little more care
full handling of the product we may
grow fax both for seed and fiber, and
that there is demand for the quality
of fiber produceable.
The cultivation of hemp in States
north and south of the Ohio river, is
treated in full, with accounts of recent
inventions in hemp cleaning machinery.
Hemp culture is being extended, the
product being utilized in the manufact-
ure of binder Irvine, which is shown to
b. equal to binder Irvine from Sisal and
Manila, with the merit of being several
cents cheaper per pound. In regard to
these two fibers, fax and hemp, the par
ticular advantage to our farmers in
their culture will be the saving to this
country, out of total of imports
amounting to S44. 00O,OO of SCI, 900, 0cO
now paid for foreign fbers and manu-
features that should be produced here.
and for which native fax and hemp may
be substituted. The ramie question has
been most carefully studied, and the
present status of the industry summed
up, with full consideration of past dis
couragements, present obstacles and
future possibilities of the success of the
industry in all its phases. The fact
that an Eastern manufacturing firm has
created a demand for American ramie is
encouraging A perfectly satisfactory
and economical decorticator is only
needed to put the industry on its feet.
The report closes with a short chapter
on jute. This bulletin will be sent free
on application to Hon. J. NJ. Rusk, Sec
rotary of Agriculture, Washington,

reaches into the trough little. This strip
will vibrate back and forth, being fast

the feed to drop slowly into the troughs

sign in the United States navy, who was
drowned off the Japan coast. He was
young man of fine promise. He inherited
love of the navy from his father, Henry
B. Rumsey, formerly lieutenant COM
mander. The father met an heroic death
only two years ago in the effort to save
the life of child in burning hotel in
Buffalo, and now the news comes of the
accidental death of the son in foreign seas
while he was IN the very bud of life, hope
and ambition. The circumstances are

vide consolation for the mother who has
been so sorely afflicted"
Gen. McCook, commanding the mill
tary department OF Arizona, may be ex
pected to arrive in Santa Fe almost any

Tribune of the latter city says: The re-
ception last night rendered to Gen. Nc
Cook, now the commanding-in-chief OF
this department, gave an opportunity for
our citizens and the army men in par
ticular to meet one of the most distin-
guished soldiers we have, and a gentle
man whose appointment to southern Cali
fornia is gain to this section in many
ways. Gen. McCook receives a hearty
welcome from the south, and in giving
him greeting We congratulate him in
having secured one of the pleasantest
winter and summer posts in the army,
and We also congratulate the people OF
Los Angeles in the honor they receive in
his presence"
