A Directory That is Much in Demand. 



To TiiK India Ki'Iihkr World — GrntLmtn : The writer would very 

 much like to see a sample copy <if your valuable magazine. I am es- 

 pecially interested in the advertising section. 



Awaiting your pleasure, yours truly, wh.liam wai.kkr. 



I*oTlIancl, OreR'in. 



The above brief letter is noticed here, not because there is anything 

 unusual about it, but because so many such letters reach this office. 

 The Editor does not flatter himself that the contents of the reading 

 pages alone attract those who look into The India Rubhkr World — 

 there are too many evidences that the advertisements printed in the pa- 

 per are of chief interest to numerous readers. The letter just quoted 

 evidently is from a merchant who is thinking about taking on some line 

 of rubber goods ; he hears that there is a trade paper, but doesn't know 

 the address ; he knows the name, however, and his letter reaches this 

 oflice. We hope that the paper sent will interest and prove of value to 

 him ; its advertising pages certainly will open to him a wide exposition 

 of rubber products. These pages comprise the most complete directory 

 in existence of the producers of rubber goods, and as a directory are in 

 constant request from bjyers — actual or prospective. 



A Book of Suggestions. 



The element of suggestiveness is something that no live manufacturer 

 should neglect. Busy men are apt to become so engrossed with the de- 

 tails of daily routine that they find time 

 for little else. They feel that if they 

 could only employ an alert, vigorous mind 

 to suggest, and suggest, and suggest — 

 good, bad, and indifferent, though the 

 suggestions might be — some of them 

 would be sure to be of value. Such help, 

 however, is rare ; indeed it is not in the 

 market. The next best thing, therefore, 

 is to put one's self in the way to do one's 

 own suggesting. In " Crude Rubber and 

 Compounding Ingredients" is found a 

 record of the experiments, the succes?es, 

 and failures of thousands of suggestions 

 by the best rubber men of the world, and 

 to read the book is to have them all, as it 

 were, at one's elbow, saying : " Why 

 don't you try this?" Or "My idea of 

 the compound you want is thus and so." 

 Or, " I use such an ingredient because it 

 gives this result." and so on ad infinitum. 

 It is well worth the price of the book to 

 be able to summon such an array of ex- 

 perts from any part of the world at a mo- 

 ment's notice, and with no mileage costs 

 or consultation fees. = = Speaking of the 

 same book, a well known Rubber Superintendent recently said : " It 

 has more meat in it than all of the other books and pamphlets combined. 

 I use it constantly. It has been worth hundreds of dollars to me, it is so 

 suggestive."

 factory. Enclosed find I'ostoffice money order for $3 for one year's sub-

//o'O' to Keep Up to Date on Rubber Planting. 



In reviewing a small work on rubber planting recently brought out in 

 England, T/u- FJcclriciun, a leading London technical journal, remarks:

 valuable aid in his work, and he will be well advised if he keeps himself 

 up to date by perusing the issues of The India Rubber World, of 

 Nj V Vork, a journal in which rubber planting interests receive close and 

 regular attention."
