To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The intervals be- tween the rows being deepened by the hilling have also a draining influence, which can be rendered still more effective by ditches dug across from distance to distance, say 15 feet. Good crops are obtained by thickening the stands. The stems are then abundant, fine, straight, and rich in fiber. Close planting is then necessary, inasmuch as it prevents the objectionable branching of the stalks. Crooked and branchy ramie is unfit for mechanical decortication ; it causes waste an...d yields an inferior quality of fiber. The period at which the plant is ripe for cutting is indicated by a brownish tinge at the foot of the stems. At that early stage the plant, though greenish, yields a fine and abundant filament; it also produces three or four crops, according to soil and climate. The first cutting may be unprofitable on account of the irregularity and sparseness of the growth ; but if the stand is well razeed and manured over the stubbles the ensuing cuttings will be productive.
