jrell, of Newark, N. J. They intend to 
operate the machine this senaoti at some 
point on the James riccr. The Govern - 
mont of Calcutta has a standing offer of 
£5,000 reward to the inventor of a success¬ 
ful juic oleanirg machine, and it is bo 
lieved that the American inventor* filmed 
will secure the handsome prize. 
The Department is distributing a large 
quantity of jute seed throughout the South¬ 
ern States. It is planted in the spring and 
harvested in the fall. The yield of fibre is 
about 3,500 pounds to the acre, and tho 
market quotation for the prepared article 
is l'JJ cents per pound. (Jett. La Duo is 
convinced that the acreage of jute- planting 
this season will bn very largo, and that tl.o 
planters will realize handsomely on their 
crops. For years jute has been to India 
a great source of wealth, and there is no 
reason why il should not bean equal sourco 
of wealth to tho United Stales. It will 
suppress the foreign monopoly, annually 
saving millions of dollars to the country, 
and at the same time, itiuiln capitalists to 
establish new manufactories and industries 
that will give employment to thousands of 
laborers.

Thu Department of Agriculture is happy 
over the receipt of a magnificent sample of 
American jute fibre prepared by mechanical 
primes* from green stem* grown in Vir¬ 
ginia. It satisfactorily nolt-iit ilia problem 
that ha* engaged the attention of the de¬ 
partment for over ten year*, and eatablishes 
the fact that India jute- can be auccewfully 
and profitably grown upon American soil. 
In the language of the Commissioner, Gen. 
be Due, it is “qur declaration of independ 
••nec from India in tho matter of jute, and 
rnr nii.x un annual saving to this country of 
110,000,OKI) ami over. 1 ' Thu prepared libra 
now on exhibition at tho Department is pro¬ 
nounced equal in all reaped a to any for¬ 
eign fibre. Il is largely used in the iiinuu- 
facturu of gunny-lugs, paper, nipca, car 
peU, InggiiigH and ' il ulutlu. It will »„• 
impossible tu glut the market with the fibre, 
as it* use is so diversified am] essential. 
I lie plant can be successfully grown in 
any section south of New York, and, it ■« 
behoved, further to the north. Kur «vcr»l

pare by hand the fibre for market is u slimy 
and profitless business, and the American 
laborer in the- work could not compote with 
the women, children and other cheap label 
oi the Fast Indies. A machine to do tin 
work was essential to make the cultivation of 
jut* * fcucces* tut American soil. The (Join- 
miiwiontr is satisfied that such a machine
