There are at present in use two ma
tive methods of extracting rubber. The
first that of incision or tapping, is
followed by all natives south of the
Zambesi valley, and it produces Il
high-grade rubber known as Mozam-
bique pink, second only to best Para
on the European market. The other
method of extra ctiOn, known as pound
ing is generally followed in the
Mozambique and other northern dis
tricts. There the bark is stripped
the vines and is cooked over a slow
fire and pounded until the bark is
finally pounded out, leaving a mass
of rubber in all stages of crudity. This
rubber is known as Mozambique rooty
1t is classed very low but a large
concern now operating in the Mozam-
biQue district has perfected the sys-
tenn of pounding to the point of pro-
ducing a rubber which is rapidly ap-
preaching the classification of Mozam-
bique pink
A strange truth has come to light in
regard to the landolphia, and that is,
that while vines are frequently killed
by incision or tapping, this seldom
down almost to the ground after ma
turity. 1t is also a notable fact that
large sections of the root of a vine
can be dug up and cut off without
killing the vine In the Mozambique
district there are places where natives
have been cutting roots from the same
vines year after year. The recogni-
ton of this fact will make an enor-
nous difference in the estimates of
the capacity of the forests.-Daily

SHOULD DRAG
The ROADS NOW
r.. A. NiMOckS IN INTERVIEW
URGES WORK TO BE STARTED
WITHOUT DELAY.
DRAG WHILE MOIST.
Would FIJI Mud Holes and Ruts Before
the Rains Come-Moistened -
Road Better Dragging
Than Dry Dirt.

"A good dragging of the roads right
now will do more good than mucn
dragging later said Postmaster FRANK
A. Nimocks yesterday, when approach
ed relative to the road work IN Cen
ter township. The we'll known good
roads booster also stated that half OF
the dragging contracts for Center
township have been made and that he
expects every man with a contract to
begin Immediately on the roads.
Asked as to when the roads should
be dragged with best results, he re-
piled that good road men have been
only waiting for, the roads to dry
enough for them to get out IF the
weather is as favorable tomorrow as
has been for the past few days." said
he, you should see at least 100 drags
on the roads in the county, and there
ought to be from $50 to 800 drags out
Friday and Saturday.
Do It Right Now. Is
zone good dragging at this time, .
said he, sis better than all kinds OF
dragging later. The use of heavy
drag, getting all of the mud holes and
ruts filled before we get good rain,
" III wv AA1OlS 60Ou SAAe~AA ~~AA S~AS Wv -
the dragging of the season.
When asked why a dragging at this
time was so important, he replied:
eff carefully dragged Friday and Sat.
urday, the ruts and mud holes filled
up, you can easily see that the high
ways will then shed the rains and the
roads remain good. But if there Is no
dragging before we get heavy rain or
succession Of rains, you will find that
the rain will gather in the ruts and
mud holes, and the result is easily seen
by anyone who is the least familiar
with roads.
Don't Wait For Dryness.
ut is a bad policy to wait for the
roads to get too dry before dragging
them. If you wait until every spot in
the road is dry, then the road will get
hard and won't pack in the dragging
like it should and will do when moist.
Every piece of road in the country
should be dragged with a heavy
drag and not lightly brushed while
this good weather continues and the
rains keep off. There is much more
danger to roads becoming too dry
than too damp to drag, for the moist
road will fill holes more lastingly than
dust so would urge that we do our
dragging while the roads are moist. l
would also recommend that after the
next heavy rain that we have another
dragging as soon as practicable. All
bitches should be opened at once, but
the dragging should take precedence
over the ditch work. as you can open
the bitches any time. but the one time
to drag the road is when the road is in
condition" *r.-.. 49,
Mr.. Nimocks stated that he woult
be glad to hear from any man in the
county regarding dragging on the main
travelled roads and rural mail routes,
and complete the contracting for this
work. ...

WILL MOVE If
READY May |
HOPES TO BE ABLE
TO USE PART OF FEDERAL
BUILDING in MONTH.

The new federal building will be
finished by May L. if the plans of the
government do not miscarry, or the
failure on the last minute of some i'm
portant material to arrive. Although
it is not absolutely assured that the
complete new structure will be ready,
it is hoped by the treasury department
that sufficient of the work will be done
to permit the removal of the postoffi &c
into the new building. The employees
on the job are apparently busfly en-
gagged, but there are some few things
that have continually served as halt
to the progress of the construction.
One of those things has been the
marble that is used in considerable
quantity throughout the building. An
other part of the work that is likely
to prove hindrance to completion by
the first of May is the lighting. This
has seen but little Roadway thus far
and much remains to be done. "
Already there has been received a
large quantity of furniture and equip
ment which is being stored about vari-
GUS parts of the building. The carpen-
tiers have pretty nearly completed the
flooring of the work room of the post
ONCE There still remains consider
able to do on this floor but the delay
in the receipt Of marble that is to be
used for a base in the lobby has proven
to be one of the hindering elements.
Work on the second and third floors
has progressed In good form and the
court room is especially pretty since
the workmen have painted and oiled
the room. This is all in oak finish
and with the handsome plastering in
which is worked some elaborate de-
sgns, presents beautiful appearance.
