SECTION III—LINEN, &c.

A.—FIBRES. 
No description of raw produce is more industriously sought after by manufacturers 
than vegetable fibres, and India is a field to which they have long and hopefully directed 
their attention. Undoubtedly the vast resources of our Indian Empire in this branch 
are as yet but partly known, and there is good ground for believing that a large numher 
of fibrous plants grow with luxuriance, which would yield a material commanding a 
constant demand in western markets if a large and regulär supply could be secured.
