AFTER THE ROOT.
Mr.. j. j. Hagerman Tells the Chicago
People Something About
Cana-agria.

J.J. Hagerman, the Jay Gould of the
west" j, in Chicago on lis way to begin
another mamsAfth enterprise. Mr.. Hag-
erman is president of the Molly Gibson
mine, out of which be has made $40, ,OO0,-
900 since it was opened seven years ago.
His other ventures have been successful
to high degree, and nobody, not even
Mr.. Hagerman himself, knows how much
he is worth.
Mr.. Hagerman was seen at his effice in
the Stock Exchange building, where be
stopped for a few hours on his way from
New York to Colorado Springs, whence
he goes Immediately to New Mexico, the
seat of the new venture.
ut is the cana agria root we are AFTER"
Mr.. Hagerman explained, "and we are
going after it on large scale. You
probably know that all tanning of leather
is done by the use of tannic acid, and that
it is secured from great many sab
stances. The principal sources are oak
and hemlock bark. But for tanning the
finer feathers the principal stuff used is
| gambia, which comes from India. Prob
| ably S10,O00,00O worth a year ls shipped
from that country to England and
America. great variety of plants, how
ever, produce this substance, and one of
them is the cana agria root. We have had
our eyes on it for three years now.
"We believe that the arid land of the
Pecos valley can be made by irrigation
to yield from ten to fifteen tons an acre.
1t is better even than gambia and much
| cheaper. We are therefore going in to
control the market. Enough can be
raised down there to supply all Europe
as well as America.
"We are going to pu. up a large fac
tory at once, with capital of 5 100000,
capable of handling 1875 tons day of the
root, and we have plenty money
to put into it as the business increases.
We shall be ready for the present seasons
crop, which will be raised on something
over thousand acres. You see, there is
no other soil 80 we'll suited to the growth
of cana agria, and the fact that the Pecos
valley is the most eastern portion of the
arid district of America IS a big advan-
tage.
"R. J. Bolles, of Colorado Springs,
Chas. A. Otis, of New York, and WalLurn
d Swenson, of Chicago, are among the
hackers of the enterprise. The manufac-
turing season begins about the middle
of August and lasts until about the 1st of
February. The root is raised by the
farmers throughout the valley and they
will come In and sell it to US at the fac
tory at Sc Ia ton. They plant in the fall
any time from the 1st of September to
the let of December. We expect to get
started in plenty of time to handle this
years crop and the business will un-
doubtedly grow with enormous rapiditY."

to employ or permit to be employed, if
they can prevent it, competent and faith
full men, simply because they quit the
service of some other employer, as a con-
spiracy which should not be tolerated by
