Our authority, does not balleve that the forest production will remain at its present lavel, but that, on the contrary, it will de- crease, which tondency it is clearly showing, with the exception of certain regions➡for ex simple, the Congo, where both the French and Belgian Governments have made wisa provi 129sions in the concessions as to the replanting of the rubber areas as they are used up. This will, no doubt, ensure the maintenance of the level of production in Africa. But it is not so in South Americs, where the tendency to fall off is the production is very significant.

WHEN WILL OVER-PRODUCTION COME. Ap to the indefinite increase of plantations in the Far East Mr. Engeringh says —
That is impossible. They require special clearly defiond conditions for their success, and these conditions will only be found in a limit ed sumber of areas. The best lands are already taken. The existing plantations that have mached, or very nearly reached, the pro- duction stage may be called privileged. They have not any serious competition to fear, and in spite of the afforts made to increase their
yield, they will do more than meet the der mand that in" growing so wonderfully, I do not believe there is any cause to anticipate an accumulation' of stocka. I ballava that pre- sant prices will be maintained, and if the present growth in the demand, estimated at the moderate main of go per cant. in ten years, coutisses, the plantatioņs which bave yielded 7,500 tuon last your will have to give us 35,000 tons in tạo years Thorn who like to juggle with figures will no doubt be able to show that in tau yaars their yield will be,70,000 too.
