Derk P. Yonkerman, Discoverer of The New Cure for Consumption. Marvellous as it may seem after centuries of failure, a remedy has been discovered that has cured the Deadly Consumption even in the advanced stages of the disease. No. ons will longer doubt that Consumption can be cured after reading the proof of hundreds of cases cared by this wonderful discovery- some after change of climate and ali other remedies tried had failed, and the casts had been pronounced hopeless of cure. This now remedy has also proved itself effective and speedy in curing Catarrh, Bronchitis, Asthma, and many serious throat and hing troubles. In order that all in need of this wonderful product of Science may know of its efficacy for themselves, a Company has been formed to give this knowledge to the world, and a book on the treatment can be obtained by writing to the Dark P.

which has unt escaped attention is the cou tinued demand from various American and European sources for plantation rubber orops, for which pretty bigh prices are being offered for distant delivery. There is just a possibility that when suck demands on this part of big con- sumors have been satisfied the market may enter upon a fresh phase. Consumers are no doubt doing their best in a quist way to provide for future requirements on the cheapest terms.

THE WORLD'S YIELD.

It is possible now that the dust of panic has settled and the atmosphere is clearer to take a calmer survey of the situation, and the speech of Mr. C. A. Lampard at the meating of the Rubber Plautstions. Investment Trust was an admirable exposition, and one, moreover, which did a good deal to put heart into the holders of rubber shares. The position, it must always be remembered, is based fundamentally on the supply of and the demand for crude rubber. Now the consumption has most certainly not decreased during the past twelve months and while supplies have increased so far as plautu tion rubber is concerned, there has been no alarming growth. The world's yield of cultivated rubber in 1906 was 550 tous, in 1907 1100 tons, in 1908 2000 tons, and in 19.9 4000 tons On the other hand, the total harvest of wild rabher in 1906 was 64,500 tons, in 1907,68,000 tons, in 1908-63,000 tons, and ia 1939 65.000 tons The total supply in 1909 was thus 69,000 tons, against 65,000 tons in 1908, 49.000 tons in 1907, and 65,000 tons in 1906. There is nó alarming increase here-indeed, the 1909 figures were only equal to those of 1997. Prices, how. rver, have advanced enormously, and it is to be hoped that they will be kept at a moderate figure, so that consumption will not suffer. The averago selling price of plantation rubber in 1908 was 4s. 8d. por Ib., in 1909 6a. 8d., and during January to Jane, 1910, 98.828. In other words, the price has been doubled within couple of years. When considering the present situation of crude rubber, it must never be forgotten that the higher the price of a com- modity the loss the stock which manufacturers keep by them. For one thing, consumers are mostly inclined to take the view that ras material is too dear and more likely to go down than up

when prices actually are high they refrain from buying, except on a hand-to-mouth scale, and for another thing it costs about twice as much to buy a ton of rubber to-day as it did a couple of years ago, and money locked up in stocks of a commodity is money not earning

interest.

and

MOTOE CARS AND THE SUPPLY,

It may be taken for granted, therefore, that the supplies su consumers' works are down to a very low level, and replenishment will be forced sooner or later. Unless the motor car industry collapses the consumption of rubber aust lacrease, for every car on the road in a destructive user of rubber. Every now oar rumuing means so maneh zmore rubber a year worn out of existence, and another-source of demand for new rubber, Davise tyres of some other substance, and of coness the futuro of rubber would be precarious, but the fact is that the demands of a new and huge industry bave caught the world abort at a staple of commerce, and rubber trees do not spring up to the tappable stage in a night.

The Antwerp position is rather interesting, as is shown by the following
