A Ceylon newspaper prints a letter from an old subscriber, ask- 

 ing "if it is possible for a well grown Ceara rubber tree, 6 years 

 old, to yield 80 pounds of rubber per annum." Such figures 

 probably were suggested to his mind by some rubber plantation 

 prospectus, and if the whole document was similarly optimistic 

 it doubtless would make mighty good reading. 



The visiting agents for rubber estates in the Federated Malay 

 States have had a profitable experience. One is mentioned in 

 The Times of Ceylon as having made £4,000 this year by reports 

 upon properties.
