poppy, from which a juice is extracted and
subsequently reduced BY boiling until II
becomes a liquid resembling molasses,
when il is termed refined opium, Is carried
on in many parts of Asia. Persia. Turkey,
and some parts of China. The chief district
is along the Glnges river, India, and en-
braces an area 600 miles long by 200 miles
in width, and is divided into two districts,
Behar and Benares. The cities of Patna
and Gazepore are the principal depots or
shining points, where the factories for
making crude opium are situated. The
producers are required to sell their product
to the Indian government, which in turn
supplies the great Chinese importing
bonses. Before the fields of India were
deveIoped opium came from Turkey and
Persia. and was used for medicinal pur-
noses for the reason that II contained
more than 10 per cent morphia, quality
that is too rich for smoking; opium used
for the latter purpose contains ABOUT
per cent.
