"
Certainly
,
"
replied
Herbert
.
"
I
may
say
,
Pencroft
,
that
the
bark
of
the
bamboo
,
cut
into
flexible
laths
,
is
used
for
making
baskets
;
that
this
bark
,
mashed
into
a
paste
,
is
used
for
the
manufacture
of
Chinese
paper
;
that
the
stalks
furnish
,
according
to
their
size
,
canes
and
pipes
and
are
used
for
conducting
water
;
that
large
bamboos
make
excellent
material
for
building
,
being
light
and
strong
,
and
being
never
attacked
by
insects
.
I
will
add
that
by
sawing
the
bamboo
in
two
at
the
joint
,
keeping
for
the
bottom
the
part
of
the
transverse
film
which
forms
the
joint
,
useful
cups
are
obtained
,
which
are
much
in
use
among
the
Chinese
.
No
!
you
do
n't
care
for
that
.
But
--
"
"
But
what
?
"
"
But
I
can
tell
you
,
if
you
are
ignorant
of
it
,
that
in
India
these
bamboos
are
eaten
like
asparagus
.

Asparagus
thirty
feet
high
!
"
exclaimed
the
sailor
.
"
And
are
they
good
?
"
"
Excellent
,
"
replied
Herbert
.
"
Only
it
is
not
the
stems
of
thirty
feet
high
which
are
eaten
,
but
the
young
shoots
.
"
"
Perfect
,
my
boy
,
perfect
!
"
replied
Pencroft
.
"
I
will
also
add
that
the
pith
of
the
young
stalks
,
preserved
in
vinegar
,
makes
a
good
pickle
.

Better
and
better
,
Herbert
!
"
"
And
lastly
,
that
the
bamboos
exude
a
sweet
liquor
which
can
be
made
into
a
very
agreeable
drink
.
"
"
Is
that
all
?
"
asked
the
sailor
.
