Experiments in growing this plant . have been conducted by private individuals, state agricultural experiment stations and the United States department of agriculture in many states. The most extensive plantings of 40 to 50 acres have been carried on by men who were developing decorticating machines. There are several plants spinning ramie in this country, and the domestic fiber will find a ready market as soon as machines are developed to extricate the fiber. It has great strength when wet and will not mildew. The fiber is particularly attractive and is so soft and lustrous that as much as 20 per cent ramie may be mixed with silk without changing the appearance. d, Maj. Gen.
