Rubber Industry in Netherlands- India.
The British Consular report on Java notes that 1010 has been a
most interesting year for rubber- in Java, as the oldest of the Hevea plantations have now rozch- ad the productive stage. Littlone- tual tapping has been dono, but · a commencement has been inade, and the soll quantities of "Java plantation", which have reached the London market have been
conspicuous for the high prices realized. Figures as to yields per treo nre not yet available, but results obtained have beon high- ly satisfactory. Of the capital sunk during 1910, that of British investors easily takes the first place, and from figures complied by the Netherlands-India Agri- cultural Syndicate it appears flmt in Jars alone no less than £5,500,000 has already been pai up in respect of 87 British companies witli an' nutherized The figures are admittedly in capital of nearly £7,000,000,
coinplote. The syndicate he salso ondeavoured to collect statistick as to the aren planted with rubber in Java, and has arrived at a total of 157 estates, with an area of 85,000 aeros of planted rubber, principally Reven Braziliensis, These figures are, however, re- cognized as incomplote.
