. Cyclopedia of farm crops. Farm produce; Agriculture. FIBER PLANTS FLAX 293 few miles south of Mayaguez. The palm leaves are treated very much like those of the jipi-japa. The weaving is done by women and girls in their own homes. The center of the industry is at Cabo Rojo, where the open plaza in the center of the town is devoted to drying and bleaching the leaves. Straw braids for hats are made from ditt'erent kinds of straw. Wheat and allied species are used e.xtensively in southern Europe and also in China. In Europe the straw is grown chiefly in the prov- inces of Tuscan}', Modena and Vienza, in northern Italy. The seed is sown thickly, and the straw is pulled up by the roots before maturity. After dry- ing, the upper joints, the only part used for fine braids, are removed by hand, sorted and tied in bundles. This straw is used for the Tuscan, Leg- horn, Venetian and Swiss braids, extensively used for hats for both men and women. Rye is also grown in Italy, where it is treated much like wheat for the production of a plaiting straw. Bar- ley and rice are cultivated in Japan for the pro- duction of Japanese straw braid, which is exported in large quantities to the United States. III. Upholstery and Stuffing Fibers This group includes a large number of fibrous materials of vegetable origin. The straw of flax, grown for seed and threshed in an ordinary grain- threshing machine, thus ruining it for textile pur- poses, is put through a series of fluted rollers, which crush it and fit it for a coarse stufling material used in couches, car seats and carriage cushions. Crin vegetal is a fiber obtained from a small palm, Chamcerops humilk, native in Algeria and cultivated in southern Europe. The leaves of the plant are shredded and the strands twisted into a coarse yarn, making, when picked open, an elastic material somewhat like curled hair. A similar material is also made from the leaves of the saw palmetto, which grows in great abundance over hundreds of acres in Flo
