(Continued from paja 10.) resistance to stretching, and recovery), smoked rubber,, if tested, will obtain a markedly higher percentage of points than ordinary crepo"-a conclusion which is fully borne out by the technical report recently issued by Mesara Clayton, Beadle and "Stevens. Mr. Maclaren asks the question, why is it, if-ns ie known and acknowledged-the washing loss on fine hard Para is some 16 per cent, greater than in the case of plantation rubber, the manufacturer is propared to pay a premium for the Brazilian com modity? The manufccturer, Mr. Maclaren conceden, is no fool; iu few trades are all items of ex penditure more closely scrutinised than in the rubber manufaclar- ing industry. To a manufac tarar using, say, 200 tons of rub- ber in the course of a year this washing loss alone takes a dif ference of perhaps £14,000-in itself quite a respectable profit en the year's turnover. parently the rubber manufacturer thinks it worth his while to gacri- fice this sum, which he would gave if he bought plantation rab- bar. What, then, is the reason? The latex yielded by the tree, whether in Brazil or in the East, is to overy one's belief of the same consistency and quality. Every- thing points to the fact that what-i evor fault exists is in the methods of preparation. The use of acetic sold as a coagulanton plantations may to some extent be responsible, but it is from the thorough curing it receivos by means of smoking that fiae hard Parn derives those special qualities which appeara ho strongly to manufactures. It is Mr. Maclaren's viow that, if plantation rubber is to compete op equal terms with fins hard Para, it raust be thoroughly and efficiently prepared in smoked form. No mall portion of Mr. Maclaren's book is devoted to the scientific ide of rubber,cultivation."
