CHICORY

in all its stages, from the Raw Root to the Ground Dust, asused in mixing with, and instead of, Coffee ; also

PASTEL, or IMITATION WOAD,

made from the leaves of the Chicory plant, and as used inthe Dye Vat for the fastening of different coloursin Woollen Cloths.

CHICORY, or “ CICHOlilUM,” a tap-rooted plant of theEndive family, the root of which is largely used as a substi-tute for Coffee .

From its medicinal qualities, it is considered a valuableadmixture to Coffee , as it counteracts the astringent effectsthereof.

It can also be sold at a much lower price, and, being ofhome produce, is recommended to the public, in connexionwith Coffee , as a wholesome and nutritious beverage, theconsumption of which is now becoming very general.Though formerly believed to be a prejudicial admixturewith Coffee , it is now positively proved to be quite thecontrary.

The leaves of this plant are also applicable to the manu-facture of a valuable Dye-Stuff called “ Pastel,” or “ Imita-tion Woad of which they form a principal ingredient. ^

This article is very largely used by Wool Dyers, and is avaluable agent in the Dye Vat, for fastening colours incloths.

The application of this plant to the above joint purposesis of recent date in Ireland . The first of the above-men-tioned articles produced from this plant were manufacturedand introduced into the English market with success by Mr.Paul King Bracken, from his manufactory in the neigh-bourhood of Dublin.

The samples now exhibited were grown and manufacturedby Arthur Hill Griffith, Esq., Gortmore, Ballymore,County Westmeath, under Mr. Bracken’s directions.

Mr. Griffith has established a Factory for the combinedproduce of Chicory and Woad, which is promising to bevery successful, and gives very considerable employment tothe poorer classes in the vicinity.

As an Agricultural Crop, and one suited to the soil andclimate of Ireland , together with the large quantity of labourrequired for the bringing of these articles to perfection,this plant is considered of great national importance.

In an economic view, the advantages can be ascertainedby a comparison of the respective prices of those articleswith the present prices of Coffee and Woad, neither ofwhich can be produced at double the remunerative prices ofChicory or Imitation Woad, both of which substitutes arein most respects quite as efficient, and some superior to,their originals._
