Tlie dried stems each Aveiglied 5 ounces instead of less than three-fourths of an ounce.
As to uses, a coarse sackcloth is made from its fiber in India (some- times called gunny fiber), thougli its chief emjiloyment is for roi^es and cordage, it being the common cordage of the country in a few districts.
Coarse canvas is also made from it. In Bengal it is employed at the present time for all the purposes of jute, and also for making fish nets and iiaper. Vetillart says: The fiber of H, caiinahh...uis is stiff and brittle, and has no superiority over jute, and it is very inferior to that of India hemp or sunn. The leaves of the plant are eaten as a ])ot herb in many parts of India, the taste being pleasantly acid, not unlike sorrel.
The fibers of carefully prepared Ambari are from 5 to feet long.
Compared with ordinary hemp they are paler brown, harsher, adhere closer together, though divisible into fine fibrils, i>«ssessed of consid- erable strength. Its tenacity tested with sunn is as 115 to 130.
