RUBBER INDUSTRY IN NICARAGUA. 



For a long time rubber gathering was the chief resource of 

 eastern Nicaragua, but this industry was very injuriously af- 

 fected by the development of Far Eastern plantations and the 

 consequent fall in rubber prices. The lower cost of planta- 

 tion rubber finally ruined the N'icaraguan industry, though 

 it was not until 1913 and 1914 that this trade was seriously 

 affected. Up to that time it is estimated that as many as 

 4,000 workers were engaged in gathering rubber on the 

 eastern cost of Nicaragua. The average result of a day's 

 labor was from four to live pounds per man, for which tlie laborer 

 received 40 cents gold per pound. In 1914 practically all of 

 this labor was left unemployed and the merchants lost their 

 principal means of establishing foreign credit balances. In 

 1910, the exports of crude rubber from Nicaragua amounted 

 in value to $280,876; in 1911, to $214,960; in 1912. to $207,748; 

 ill 1913, to $96,471 ; wliile in 1914, these exports only amounted 

 to $48,776. In 1910 prices were as high as $1.30 per pound. 

 Today they vary from 18 to 25 cents per pound.
