It was demonstrated at the time of these experiments that the plant â would thrive in any rich soil suitable for corn and potat Preparation.âThe fiber can be disintegrated and separated from the stalks by steeping in water, like rlax, hemp, or jute (as practiced in India . but such practice should be avoided in this country if possible. At the time of the New Jersey experi- ments it was thought that the question of economically cleaning the liber had been -The Indian ma] n avicenna. settled by the invention of a 'combined chemical and mechanical process.' There is no doubt that a combined mechanical and chemical pr< â 3fi si be employed in extracting all jutedike fibers, bnt the process must give straight liber, uninjured as to strength, and with the natural color preserved. This mean- a machine that will strip the bark and an after-pi at will remove the gams without weakening the liber. - ribbons in water for the requisite num- ber of days is the simplest form of accomplishing the result, but this is primitive.
