No'hes th. n one 1,raid:c<l and ten
million pounds of jute were consumed
in the United States In 1877. The pro
ductive power of South Carolina will
soon become enormous, and we have
here in Charlecton a factory that is
profitably making bagging from im
ported fibre. ’When Smith Carolina
shall both grow the jute and roanu-
f icture the fibre, a long stride will
havcTinen made towards .'securing for
lower South Carolina a prosperity as
groat as that which followed tho
change from growing tobacco and In
digo to planting cotton. Jute, with
small grain and hay, and with tea
added, will solve the low couptiy
problem. There’s millions In It.
