NEvADA's NEW INDUSTRY.
The Ever Green Sage Being Used to
Manufacture Rubber.

AT Denver, Colorado. a factory has
been started to manufacture rubber
from Nevada sagebrush. 1t Is claimed
that commercial rubber can be made
from it. If so. it would appear that
Nevada is to prosper like q Standard
Oil magnate, for the demand for rubber
is limitless, while Nevada certainly has
enough sa~gebrush, and to spare.
The report recalls the remark Of
Thomas Edison when he visited that
State some years ago. Looking out
over the vast expanse of silvery sage
brush, Edison said: ''God never yet
made anything in nature that was not
of value. and / believe some day that
this sagebrush will be put to CONNER
cial use." Ellison always was a good
guesser and it may be that the sage
brush that he encouraged will n day
solve the problem of rubber tires for his
three hundred-dollar automobiles.-Sac-
ramento Union.
