Simon W. Hanauer, Vice Consul Gensril

following:
German papers discuss and copiously
comment on the late news that the firm OF
Bruhmn's Soeline. of Gera. one Of the
largest extile-manufacturing concerns in
Germany. is now about toyestablish fac
tory and branch house in the United States.
One Of this firms partners, Henry Bruhm.
has been in the United States for some time
past to carry out this purpose Ii is conf
IDENTIFY expected that this, enterprise will be
as successful as those Of the firms Of Stohr

Gently established a branch factory in Pas
sale, N. J.: George Hirsch. of Gera, and
Arnold, of Greiz, which also have factories
at Passaic. These German ventures in the
United States have been very profitable
A report is now current that manufactuI ers
of Gera have formed a syndicate aiming at
the erection of new worsted-textile facto-
ries in the United States. News also comes
from Rhenish Prussia (the Crefeld and

in the United States.
The straits in which this German indus
try has been placed by the part al shutting
of Of the important American market, ow-
ing to the working of the tariff has neces-
STATED this new departure.
For our country this move is of much
greater importance than appears on the
surface. 1t not only means new capital and
skilled labor. whereby the country's popu-
lation and the national wealth is increased,
but it strengthens our capacity to compete
in the world markets with the very country
from which this skill and monetary force
has been drawn. This truth is better
known and more keeniy felt by German
manufacturing circles and their organs of
the press than by our own people. This
transfer of manufacturing and financial
power is the handwriting on the wall tell
ing of the coming decline of European ma
tions as purveyors for the outside word,
and the rise Of the vigorous and ingenious
nation of the Western Hemisphere to sue

CULTIVATION OF HOPS.
An Interesting Report From AKrI
cultural Explorer Fairchild.

An Interesting Report From AKrl-
cultural Explorer Fairchild.
David G. Fairchild. Agricultural Explorer
for the Department OF Agriculture, has just
transmitted communication to the depart
ment on the cultivation Of hops in Bohemia.
The information will be circulated in
pamphlet form by the department In dis
cussing the subject Mr.. Fairchild says:
''Ssaz and Auschs, the two most noted
op-growing districts Of Bohemia, are
rivals In the production Of a hop which is
not surpassed by any other in the world,
and is equaied in aroma and fine bitter
flavor only by the finest ''Goiding'' hop Of
Kent, England. Each region claims pri-
ority as being the one in which the hop
plant was first cultivated, back in almost
prehistoric times. The market prices prove
the superiority, in the buyers mind. of
the hops grown in Saaz over those OF
Auscha. although this is attributed to a
historical. rather than an actual superiority
by the Auscha growers, who contend that
the Auscha hop today is as good as the
Saaz hop.
LAS the hop OF commerce is the seed
less flower cluster Of the female plant,
quite naturally only plants of this sex are
cultivated in the gardens. although male
plants are sometimes seen in cultivated
fields. The greatest pains are taken to
Immediately root out any Of the chance
male plants which have come up from seed
or have otherwise gotten into the garden.
In Auscha there are old laws which enforce
their immediate removal. Such male plants
are called wild hops and are most abun-
dant in waste places about the gardens. A
single male plant in garden will fertilize
fan n oil trf, he
whole harvest by the formation of a high
percentage OF seed in the otherwise seed
less flowers.
Arrangements have been made for the
Importation OF a considerable number OF
cuttings of the Semsch hop for the purpose
of testing them under the various soil and
climatic conditions prevailing in the Ameri-
can hop growing districts. II would be a
happy outcome il they proved as successful
as they have in Saaz. In order to ascertain
whether the Auscha red hop when trans
ferred to America will retain its native
productiveness, and also to determine II
the acquired characters, gained by culti-
waiting the same variety for years in Saaz
will be retained, a quantity Of cuttings from
both places has been ordered for the spring
of 1900. In addition. three other varieties
are imported for trial, namely, the Auscha
green hop. Auscha late hop. both good sec
ond grade varieties. and the true Saaz hop.

generations in Saaz"
