More than 125, oce, GOO grains of qui-

More than 125, 0co, GOO grains Of qui-
time have been consumed by American
soldiers during the past year. In some
cases men who were In the hospitals
In Cuba and Porto Rico used as much
as 800 grains a week, and hardly any
have failed to use the drug at some
ner.od of their service. 1t Is stated
that the people Of the United States
consume one-third Of the quinine OF
the world, the drug being used IL the
preparation Of many patent medicines,
tonics. bitters, cold cures. ETC., as Wen
AZ in pills and In bulk, and a consider
able quantity Is consumed in the manu-
,acture OF hair tonics. The Official ns-
ures in the treasury bureau OF statis-
tics show that there were imported last
year into the United States, 1883 ,Ooo,-
75o grains of quinine, and as there was
practically no export Of this article.
this means that the consumption Oh
ouinine was about twenty grains TOT
each inhabitant. AS is well KNOWN
uuinine, Peruvian bark. and caiisaya
bark are the products Of the cinchona
Tree which is a native Of western South
America. more particularly OF Peru
and Ecuador. Now, however, put q
small part of the supply comes from
that region. At present two-thirds OF
the ouinine consumed is produced II
lava from cultivated trees. For many
years the Dutch government was urged
~ undertake the cultivation OF this
plant from Peru. Finally this was &C,
complished and a large number o.
snecjmens of tho different varieties
were obtainable by botanists, who tool
them to Java In 1852. The British
government also started cinchons
nIantations In India which now pro
suce large quantities Of quinine.
