This great industry which is carried on in India, making it one of the leading enterprises of that country, is extremely interesting to note through the medium of the motion picture. We see the bamboo growing in prodigious quantities, and when it reaches a certain height, is cut down by the natives, who sort and carry it to the plant where it is dried. Next we see the stripping, and preparing for the manufacturing of the hats, which resemble our Panamas in many respects. When the hats are finished they are spread out in the sun to dry, and it is an interesting sight to see a large field entirely covered with them. They are gathered up in large bundles and prepared to ship to foreign ports.
