RUBBER CEMENT CANS. 



A DEVICE which apparently should possess an interest lor 

 many branches of the rubber industry is the patented 

 cement pail used in leather shoe factories for applying rubber 

 cements, great quantities of which are used for shoe channel- 

 ling, and to the manufacture of which several large plants are 

 devoted. The practice of carrying cements in ordinary tin re- 

 ceptacles is not only wasteful, but is more or less dangerous, 

 because of their evaporative and inflammable nature. A fire- 



KRIEQ CEMENT CAN. 



proof and non-evaporating cement can made by the J. K. Krieg 

 Co. (New York) is referred to as affording a safe and most 

 economical method of keeping cement. This can is made of 

 cast iron and has a mouth fitted with a cover of iron, into 

 which the cement flows almost steadily, thereby preventing 

 the accumulation of dirt and sediment, and obviating the ten- 

 dency to harden. This can is fitted with a receptacle for water 

 in which the brush may be 

 kept soft when not in use. 

 It is made in i gallon and 

 3 quart sizes. Another ce- 

 ment can of a new and de- 

 sirable type, and already in 

 wide request, is that manu- 

 factured by the Ross-Moyer 

 Co. (Cincinnati). It is so 

 designed that the orificp 

 from which the cement is 

 taken by the brush, while 

 sufficiently large for the 

 purpose, offers only a very 

 small surface (or evapora- 

 tion, and when not in use the opening is closed by means of 

 a clamp, which renders evaporation or ignition impossible. 

 This can is made in three sizes, holding 1% pints, 2 quarts, 



and I gallon. 



CHlCLE.^While Mexico continues to be the principal source 

 of supplies of this gum, there is a considerable export from 

 British Honduras. The latest official report for that colony 

 gives the amounts shipped [in pounds avoirdupois] for the past 

 nine years as follows : 



1895 105,478 1898 255.263 1901 136,391 



1896 925.199 1899 ,. 260,448 1902 252,933 



1S97 .. 255,945 1900 260,848 1903 409.508 



From the amounts credited to British Honduras in the re- 

 turns published at Washington it appears that the principal 

 consumption of this product, as with that from Mexico, is in 

 the United States, Part of the British Honduras Chicle is ex- 

 ported direct to Canada, and thence to the United States.
