Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1896-01-23

Canalgre Culture AT the recent ir-
rlgation congress, Albuquerque. N. NJ,
ii was stated that experiments with
the wild canaigre plant (Which yields
a tannin equal to that OF oak or hem
lock for tanning purposes) at the New
Mexico and Arizona stations, show
that 1t responds to intelligent cultiva-
tion to surprising degree. From 10
to 20 tons can be grown to tho acre
and The demand Is likely to exceed
the supply for many years to come
Most of the wild canaigre thus far
gathered has gone to foreign markets
During period OF II months, the
Southern Pacific Railroad company
handled $40 carloads of the sliced and
dried root consigned to Europe. In
addition, the extract works at Demlng
n. NJ, have been running full time
and sending the product to eastern
tanners and abroad. The green root
from diggcrs hands, is worth SO per
ton; the sliced dried root brings $4j
In Glasgow. The supply of wild root
portation, will hardly last two years
but farmers of the arid region are
awake TO the fact OF a new and profit
able farm crop which promises to ex-
ieeed in value all others. requiring lesa
irrigation, less hard and expensive Ia
Dor 10 produce and market, and one
less liable TO injury from excessive
drouth, wet, cold or heat. A large
acreage has already been planted in
the Pecos valIey--in one locality SOC
acres-and company has been
formed In California to cultivate and
manufacture the canaigre. 1t seems
probable that in time this wild plant
OF the arid reggie ms will become the
chief source OF the worlds supply OF
tannln.
