Excerpt from A Report on the Uncultivated Bast Fibers of the United States: Including the History of Previous Experiments With the Plants or Fibers, and Brief Statements Relating to the Allied Species That Are Produced Commercially in the Old World Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith the manuscript for Report no. 6 of the Fiber Investigations series, referring to the indigenous or uncultivated plants of the United States whose bast is known to con tain fiber of greater or less value. The publication of the life history, and the description of the uses of these fiber plants by the Department is important, not only because the literature of the subject, as it per tains to our own country, is so meager, but from the fact that frequent inquiry is made concerning the difierent forms by correspondents of the Department. In connection with the native species and those introduced and now perfectly naturalized, herein described, I have referred to a few allied foreign Species that have been cultivated to some extent in the Old World, for the sake of comparison or to supply hints regarding growth or preparation of the fiber of our own forms. Examples of the fiber from all these native forms were represented in the Department's Fiber Exhibit at the World's Columbian Exposition. A report on the culti vated bast fibers, containing new and useful information, and another report relating to the palm and miscellaneous fibers will follow this publication.
