BINDER Irvine NEEDS
Uncertainty of Supply Causes
Anxiety in Washington.
Oiligent Efforts Being Made to Find
New Sources for the
Material.

Washlngton.-The United States has
long depended for much of it's sup
ply of binder twine on henequen from
Yucatan. The uncertainty of the SUD-
ply during the past several years has
caused serious anxiety lest there
should not be enough binder Irvine to
harvest the increasing crops of grain
IN this country, and the United States
department of agriculture shas been
making diligent efforts to find new
sources of supply or new regions where
binder Irvine fibers may be produced.
The chief of the bureau of plant in
dustry reports encouraging results.
The conditions in limited areas, ex-
IRENE southern Florida and on the
larger keys, are regarded as suitable
for the production of sisal and hene.
quen 6bers, provided. the cost of land
and labor is not too high to permit sue
cessful competition. Henequen has
been cultivated successfully for several
years in Cuba and the plantations are
being increased, but thus far they pro-
uuce scarcely enough fiber to supply
the cordage mills on the island. Con-
ditions are regarded as favorable for
the production of binder Irvine fbers
In limited areas in Haiti and over
much larger area in southern Santo
Domingo. Experimental, paintings in
Porto Rico have resulted in the estab-
1Shment of commercial plantation

have given promise Of growth. In
the Virgin islands excellent conditions
for the cultivation of sisal have been

authorities to do but free the girl and
forget the father.
