Gum Arabic,

The most familiar objects about us
are often least understood, and probably
few can pause to ask the question;
What is gum arabic and from whence
it comes9 In Morocco, about the mid
die of November Chat is, after the rainy
season., gummy juice eXudes spon
taneously from the trunk and branches
of the acacia 1t gradually thickens in
the furrow down which it runs, and as
sumes the form Of oval and round drops,
about the size Of n pigeon egg, of differ
ent colors, as it comes from the red or
white gum tree About the middle of
December the Moors encamp on the
border of the forest and the harvest
lasts full month. The gum is packed
in large leather sacks and transported
on the back Of camels and bullocks to
seaports for shipment TO different coun-
tries The harvest occasion Is made
one of great rejoicing, and the people,
for the time being, almost live on gum,
which is nutritious and fattening. Such
is the commercial story of this simple
but useful article.
