There are only two species in this
family-the hemp and the hop. The
hemp is an annual grower, found
wild in Northern India and the
western parts of Asia. From these
wildlings have been domesticated
the hemp of commerce, imported to
this country from Russia and the
best quality from Italy.
Pushes Through Soil.
The plant pushes its way through
the hard soil after the spring rains
have brought forth the young. ten
der leaves. and by July the hemp
plant may have reached a height
of 8 to 10 feet and even more in the
Warmer climates.
The flowers are in catkin-panciles,
rather inconspicuous and either
biseXual or unisexual (sterile or fer
tile). The sterile ones are in AK
illarv, compound panclles, each pos
= sesslng five hairy sepals and five
, dropping stamens; while the fertile
flowers are small and in great aux
tllary spikes, leafy-bracted with
with entire calyX hugging the seed
box (ovary).
fhe stem is sturdy, erect and
holds its branches almost upright
The leaves are compound. with five
to seven very slender leaflets which
are attached to their foot-stalk like
tiny fingers. The leaflets are from
3 to inches long and about 4 of
an inch wide. They are pointed at
both ends and sharply toothed.
1t is the inner bark that is valu-
able. 1t is fibrous and very tough
and strong. The entire plant is

It Is an annual and is to be found

mode of distributing its offspring to
other places is by seeds and these

Natures Children
Hemp
(Cannabis sativa)

covered with rough, hairy surface
and is highly fragrant.
Smoke and Drink.
In India this hemp Is dried and
smoked like tobacco 1t is also made
into a powder and distilled as q
drink. Both as a smoke and drink
it is highly intoxicating, stimulating
the user to high degree.
There is also a resin collected by
coolies from this plant. The way Of
collecting it is most unusual. The
collectors run swiftly among the
plants, breaking them as they go.
The resin sticks to the naked bodies
of the coolies and in some of the
up-to-date fields the collectors have
special clothing they wear for the
express purpose of getting every
drop of the precious resin. This
pleasant dreams that sometimes
lead to insanity.
Hemp seeds are used for feeding
birds and are the means of liveli-
hood for the natives. In gathering
them many become scattered and
thus the plant is more widely dis
tributed.
To prevent this plant from fur
thering its own ends. cutting or
pulling before it has had time to
mature its seeds is your best and
most effective method of removing
it from your property.
