Gathering Indla.Rubber.

OF all the resins so abundantly yield.
ed by the sofnber and lilxlTiant forests
of the tropics, caoutchouc is by far the
most important, for so wonderfully is it
adapted for the needs and uses Of civil
lization that nothing can take its place.
Different societies of arts have attempt
ed to increase the world supply of in
dia-rpbber by offering great rewards for
new sources OF supply, but the world
has still to depend on caoutchouc, the
native forests of which appear to he
nearly inexhaustible. Caoutchouc, or
dinarily known as india-rubber. is q
substance found In the milky juices of
great variety of tropical trees, the most
remarkable being the eaohucu, native
to Brazil and Cehtera1 America. Some4
times, in the more lightsome spaces Of
the caoutchouc forests, the traveller

ros, as the india-rubber gatherers arc
called. i..ss.i 81. a.,,5sl.
The time Of operation Is just at the
beginning. Of the dry season. Holes are
chopped in the bark, and the milky sap
is carried through conduits of bamboo
into clay bowls, When these are full, q
bandage Is tied over the wound, to pre-
vent the precious sap from wasting.
After 4 sufficient quantity. has been
gathered 10 fill a great bowl of turtle-
shell, the new operation of smoking the
sap begins without delay.
An earthen jar, without bottom, and
with narrow neck to serve as a chim-
ney, is set over q fire of palm nuts of a
peculiar variety The smoke of these
nuts furnishes the peculiar chemical
element needed, shared by no other
fuel. The vapor instantly coagulates
the cabhtuhbuc sap until 1t resembles
rich yellow cream. Travellers de.
scribe the operation, which is usually
performed at night, as peculiarly pic
