able Supply Of Tree Products
in Great Demand.

In what was lately German East
Africa lie great tracts where some
of the finest resins in the world may
be found This is the gist of an ar
ticle in the Cornhill Magazine which
in few pages lifts corner of the
veil from the romance of the world 8
copal trade from far Cathay to the
Fiji islands. But the writer's at
tention is fixed on the east coast Of
Africa, to the resins carried by
Arabs from Africa to India for sale
in the markets of Bombay and CAL
cutta. In Sir Richard Burton's day,
Is centuries before, Mombassa
traded in ivory, in hippopotamus
teeth, in cattle, in cereals, in slaves
from the interior, and in resin. It
was the possibilities of the resin
trade which Sir Richard wished to
investigate. BE desired to see the
copal tree with his own eyes. His
purpose was practical but he could
not refrain from barking back to
those days when Mombassa, the
desolate, was, as spoken Of by Camo-
ems, a home of ancient grandeur.
Burton's optimistic forecast for the
immediate future of the resin trade
did not lead to its development. For
years copals have mainly come from
Angola, Bentuela, Congo, Gaboon
and Loanga. Now it would seem as
if, with the passing Of German East
Africa, a fresh opportunity had
arisen for the collection Of those
"tree-products which link us 50
strangely with the East
