RUBBER CULTURE

about eight inches in helgnt ana Iour
inches in diameter and when the
plants are about foot high, plant
baskets with trees in their perma-
nent positions. The more general
method. however, in the Far East Is
to plant seed in nurseries about SIX
inches apart. Seventy-five to ninety
per cent. of the seeds planted germi-
nate. The ground selected to be used
as nursery is carefully prepared. IL
is thoroughly dug up and weeds and
roots removed and the soil pulver-
lied by hand. The young plants are
left in the nurseries for several
months. until they are from is inches
to two or three feet in height. when
they are stumpcd, the tap roots cut,
and the plants transplanted, remov-
ing as little soil from the roots as
possible.
Transplanting has to he done when
the weather is favorable and after
the land has been cleared and burn
ed. As dry weather is necessary for
a good burn, the time for transplant
ing varies and depends on weather
conditions. The young trees are
planted in rows, but the distance be-
tween the trees and between the
rows varies great deal on different
plantations. There Is n difference
of opinion on this point, but 1t Is
generally considered to be fact that
planting closer than 200 trees per
acre is failure.
Effect of Close Planting - III trees
are planted too close together they
grow tall and have small leaf area
and under these conditions the bari;
does not grow quickly an on trees
planted wider apart. Neither does
the new bark form and grow over the
tapped surface as quickly as in wider
planting and 1t is now found neces.
sary to rest too closely planted for.
est. while continuous tapping can be
made on wider paintings.
In talking with the gentleman who
planted these trees he stated that Il
