THE PRODUCTION OF oUlNlNE.


Exports No BARK.
1t is n fact not generally known outside
the trade circles Immediately interested
that most of the quininc used nowadays
comes from the far cast and not from
South America. The expectation Of Gin
chona bark from Colombia has ceased
Ten or twelve years ago. says MIR. China
clio Calderon, "the production of cinchona
was Il Kind Of monopoly with some coun-
tries Of the northern part of South Ameri
ca, where the tree producing the bark
grows wild in surprising profusion. But
the carclessness, lack of method and sys-
TEN IN the collection of the bark gave rise
to the fear that the production of SO ncces-
sary an article would greatly decline, and
perhaps even become exhausted, and, ac-
tuatcd by this fear, the governments Of Hol-
land and Great Britain decided to attempt
the cultivation of the cinchona tree in their
colonies of Java and the East Indies. The
first seeds and plants were carried thither
from South America in 1861, and the
first expectation of bark from that region
to Europe, consisting of only twenty-eight
ounces, was made in 1869. The production
OF it i'll the island of Ceylon was growing
so enormously from year to year that in
the years of lss2-s3 G,925, 600 pounds of it
were exported from that place; from 1883
to 1884, II 100000 pounds, and from 1886 to
1856, 49, ,9l2 pounds. The expectations
OF java have been smaller in quantity, but
not less important. since in 1887 they ex-
ceeded 2,20O,03O pounds The necessary re-
suit OF such an immense production was
the rapid decline in the price of this raw
material and Of the article extracted from
it. 10 this depreciation further contrib,
uted two other causes, the influence of

A Coupositor,s Feat.

James Leonard, president of the New
Orleans Typographical union, is a typo
in The Times-Democrat Office. On
Friday, July 5, Mr.. Leonard began his
weeks work. He was offered no special
opportunities to make great record
(or, in typographical parlance, a 'big
string'O by setting up easy matter
C'fat takes" as the printer puts it), but
worked on the regular "fle," which
contains the general run Of matter that
appears in The Times-Democrat's col
umns. The type used in the office is
BREWER, agate and nonpareil, the latter
largely predominating. The agate
measures 80 ems to line, the nonpa-
reil 25. Mr.. Leonard worked seven
and half hours q day for seven con-
secutive days, and on Thursday night
last, when he cast up his string" It
was disclosed that he had set up just
102, 500 ems, an average of 1855 ems
a day, or l, 941 ems an hour. And he
made few errors; his proof" was
good. In doing this feat Mr.. Leonard
Set 2O5, 800 letters and returned the
same to their boxes. The distance
travelled by his arm was about LIS
miles. This record is the best made in
New Orleans since the war. Mr..
Leonard was born in Keokuk in 1858.
