RAFFIA is the name of a palm which fur- 

 nishes a staple article of commerce called 

 raffia tibre. It is used by the natives for 

 making cloths called silk lambas and reban- 

 nas, which bring fancy prices in Europe and 

 America. While it has been used to some 

 extent in America in the manufacture of hats, 

 its principal use is for tying vines, flowers, 

 asparagus and celery bunches and for graft- 

 ing. It is as soft as silk, and not affected by 

 moisture of change in temperature so as to 

 risk cutting or wounding the most delicate 

 tissues, and it does not break or ravel when 

 folded or knotted. These qualities bring 't 

 into general use. % pound, 10c. : pound. 30c.
