Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Books for the Country Price One Shilling: Flax and Hemp, Their Culture and Manipulation Those differences of climate which appear to offer the principal obstacle to the propagation of foreign plants, have but little influence on the naturalization of hemp, especially, in almost every habitable country on the face of the globe. Extremes of latitude are of but little consequence with vegetable productions which come to perfection in a very short interval of time, and at a season of the year which differs but little from the same season in regions far removed. The height of summer offers no great dissimilarity of temperature between the equator and the polar circle; it is sometimes even hotter high in' the north than under the tropics, while the continuity of genial sunshine makes up for the briefness of its entire duration. This singular advantage allows an immense extension to the culture of both flax and hemp; and they, perhaps, next to wheat, are the plants that have shown the greatest facility to make themselves at home in climates the most opposite.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Flax and Hemp Commission, Appointed Under Act of Congress February 25, 1863 The commission has found it difficult to ascertain the value and amount of fibrous products that have been produced in the United States. The cotton crop has long been one of so much importance to the commerce of the world that its values have been regularly reported, and this has been set forth by the Superintendent of the Census Bureau as having been the subject of a wonderful increase in the last decade, amounting, indeed, to 110 per cent. The annual exportation at the beginning of this century was less than bales. In 1849 the quantity grown had reached bales Of ginned cotton, of 400 pounds each. In 1859 it had further increased to bales. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Report on Flax Culture for Seed and Fiber in Europe and America It is believed that a statement of the circumstances under which the facts presented in the following pages were obtained will be of special interest to those interested in the Subject as affording evidence that unusual opportunities were enjoyed and availed of in gathering the information on which this report is based.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fibre Plants of India, Africa, and Our Colonies IF the author be asked, as the question will doubtless be put by many of his readers, his object in spending, from the year 1845 up to the present year 1864, so much time and labour in advocating the cultivation of Flax by British farmers, his answer must be, certainly, not the profit of publication, but as 198 Copies must be forwarded to the Right Honourable Sir C. Wood, Secretary of State for India, for gratuitous distribution in that empire, with aview to promoting the cultivation and preparation of Flax and hemp and the many fibres which are to be found in the great emplre of India; a profit under such circumstances has not been to him the thought of a moment, and as it is no more than a guide to the more important object he has in view, namely, the introduction of his patent portable machines for crimping or breaking, scutching, combing, scraping and brushing Flax, hemp, rheea fibre, pine-apple fibre, New Zealand Flax, &c., the work will 'be published at a price only barely sufficient to pay its own expenses.
