IMPORTATION OF CHICLE

The public does not appear to real
ize that there IS nearly as much chfcie
imported into this country from Mex
leo and Central America as there is
India rubber. And, as a matter Of
fact. few know that cnfcie is the basis
OF ali chewing gums said a chewing
gum salesman recently.
In the manufacture of chewing gum
in the United States 5000 persons are
employed, and chicIe is the most inn.
portant ingredient OF the article
Most of the chic1e is obtained from
Mexico. where great tracts Of country
are under the control OF the chewing
gum manufactures The product is
obtained in very much the same mar
ner as rubber, and Is nothing more or
less than a gum of a certain tree that
is growing in the wilds of the tropical
countries
The value of chfcie for chewing gum
purposes consists in its peculiar con-
sfstency, which Is constant and does
not wear away Gum is cheyed in
every section of the country Il has
been said that the Middle West con-
sumes the greater part of the produc-
ton, but this is mistake. In propor-
ton TO population II would be hard to
designate the section most addicted TO
the gum habit.
