An analysis "indicates that, in regard to the content cf crude 
fiber, protein 'and nitrcgen-free extract, K. argophyllus has about

total cellulose content, amounting. . .to 46.5 percent, compares 
favorably with that of cotton stalks... 
"It is not likely that this material could compete with wood in 
the cellulose-ester, rayon, or paper industries at the present tine; 
but it is conceivable that in the face of the continually diminish- 
ing wood supply it could compete with materials such as bagasse, 
cotton stalks and grain hulls."
