new RUBBER SUPPLY
KNOWN VARIETIES NOW HAvI
AN IMPORTANT RIVAL.
Valuable Discovery in Brazil Of
Forest of Trees from Which a
High-Grade Rubber Known as
"Maniccba" Is Obtained.

CaOutchouc, or gum elastic, from
which the substance known commonly
as rubber and India rubber, is OBJ
tanned from a number of different
varieties of tropical trees and plants
,ound growing in India, Africa and
Central and South America, particu
Iarly in Brazil. A large part of the
rubber supply of the United States
comes from Brazil, and the recent dis
covery in that country of forest OF
trees from which a high grade of rub
Der is obtained is important and inter-
esting. When one stops TO think OF
the immense number of uses to which
rubber is put, how it enters into the
necessities and comfort of the toilet
and dress, into innumerable domestic
uses, into the business and profession
al life, into the play of the youth and
the sports and pleasures of the adult,
in fact how rubber in some useful or
ornamental or pleasurable form is con-
stantly before us and on us and being
used by us, we begin to realize that
we are more than passively interested
i'll a discovery which will tend tn
cheaper rubber goods and make the
things we need and want for every day
life more available
In the interior of Brazil vast forests
of trees have been discovered from
which can be obtained a high grade Of
rubber known to the trade as man

rubber has been known for several
years, but no such vast stretches Of

plored. The tree is known as man
