making of bark cloth" In Africa
from the bark of the brachystegia
tree, which grows In Uganda, and In
parts of British, German and Portu-

strip the bark from trees about two
feet in diameter and pound 1t with
stones, at the same time pulling 1t
In the direction of the fiber. 1t Is
made In sheets averaging six by ten

possess much strength, and the
manufacture of it is rapidly ceasing
