A short editorial introduction from the Hawaiian Forester and Agriculturalist (1904) to the potential of ramie fibre cultivation in Hawaii. It points readers to L. G. Blackman's comparison of fibre plants in the Bishop Museum Occasional Papers and says ramie is regaining a place in European markets now that machinery can handle it. It advises that planting suit small companies with some capital, notes that degumming is done after the fibre is marketed, and announces later articles on sisal, Manila hemp and coir.
