MITSUMATA EXPERIMENTS.
Japanese Plant Out of which Good
Paper IL Made May he Intro
duced in the south.
Seplier

Interesting experiences are now be-
ing carried on by the department OF
agriculture with new paper plant
from Japan, called mitsumata. The
experiments are the result of one OF
the trips of Barbour Lathrop, of Chi
cago, and ID. G.. Fairchild foreign
agent for the department, to Japan
and other foreign countries in search
of plants for the government.
Mitsumata is adapted to warmer
parts of the country and is one of the
most valuable pAnts known for the
production of bark paper, so much
used by the japanese. 1t offers an en-
tirely new crop to the south If 1t can
be successfully raised here. Forty
two million Japanese live upon the
revenue created by manufacturing pa
per, and most of the product is manu-
featured from bark cultivated upon an
area about one-third the size Of the
state of Illinois.
The mitsumata plant fiourishes upon
land too poor for rice growing, is es-
pecially adapted to clay soil and from
600 to 1000 pounds of raw bark are
produced upon a single acre. This
pulp is worth in Japan from Is to II
cents gold per pound, or just fouI
times as much as the wood pulp i'm
ported from America sells for in Yoko-

the civil tribunal for rectifcation OF
the error.
As preliminary step that court APP
pointed medical expert TO investigate
and draw up report as to the real sex
of the subject of the proceedings.
There have been at least one or two
similar mistakes made in England.
Four or five years ago one was brought
to light in Lancashire town, owing TO
the victim of it having TO produce a GER
t.ficate of her birth as evidence of her
qualification in point Of age for situa-
ton she was trying TO obtain. In that
document her sex was set forth as that
of boy, and after a considerable
amount of trouble the misdescrlption
in the register was rectified, although
there was nothing to show how it had
originally arisen. 1t only remains foI
the writer to add that the girl was duly
appointed to the position for which
she had applied; so she suffered no loss
by the egregious mistake Of those re-
sponsibe for the registration of her en-.
try into this world.
In another instance a London young
couple found that they had landed
their offspring in similar fix. The
mother had duly registered the birth
within the statutory period, and, al
though she strongly protested that
she had informed the registrar that
the baby was girl he had entered her
on the register as boy.
Curiously enough, too, the name
given to the child was one-Sidney or
sydney frequently bestowed on
boy babies, and perhaps this had some
thing TO do with the error. But, for
tunately, the mistake was discovered
before the little lady was old enough
to know or care whether she had been
registered as a girl or as boy, and
she was saved al the trouble Of get
ting the entry put right in later years.
Her mother, TOO, was careful 10 give
all her subsequent children--fye-
names which easily dictated the sex
to which the bearers Of them belonged
A further example Of a girl who was
legally a boy is found in the vicinity Of
LYONS. AS ia most Of the other cases
quoted, she grew into womanhood be-
fore the blunder regarding her sex
was founl out; but, on applying for
her official papers, to enable her TO get
married, she was filed with amaze
ment on learning that she, was de.
Scribed in the register Of births as 81
the male sex.
The officials at the marie had some
| difficulty Ia convincing her that they
were not joking at her expenses bur
she was finally satisfied and took the
necessary steps to have the error cor
rected. Her sutton, however, was SC
perturbed BY the discovery that he
broke off the engagement and then
married another girl.
