A machine for stripping and prepar
ing for use the okra grown by Mr.
John T. Moors for paper manufacture,
will be received one day this week
and will probably be In operation tha
coming week.
Mr. Moors has one hundred tcras
of the okra planted, and It la now
ready for the machine. A large quan
tity of k has been out so as to be
ready to feed Into the mschtns as soon
as It Is set up.
As has been stated, the stalk of-the
okra oontalns the ttber used In the
paper-making, and for many othor
usee The wood for paper-making
seems to be growing scarcer and scar
cer. and the paper maker* have been
looking for a substitute. Experiments
show that tha okra furnishes the best
and cheapest of all the substitutes.
Mr. Moors planted the one hundred
acres merely ss an experiment as to
how It can be grown In this section.
Should It prove successful and the ma
chines for stripping it can be had.
It Is probable that next year he will
plant several thousand sores In the
