HOW SINGAPORE SUPPORTS GOLF,
Until about ten years ago, way. Capital, the submarine cable companies used practicnly the whole world's supply of gutta-perrha for the reason that, unlike rabber, it is not affected by salt water But when the game of golf became the fad in Europe, England and the United States, it was found that gutta-percha is the only satisfactory material out of which to make the balls. and the demand for it increased to so great an extent that the production nearly doubled. The ships from Singapore now being enormous cargoes of it, and although twice as much is imported by England as was imported ten years ago, the price has advanced about 100 per cent. This, the cable companies say, is due solely to the manufacture of golf balls.
