It is likewise favourably reported upon in Jamaica, Dominica, 

 St. Vincent, Grenada, Trinidad, Zanzibar, Uganda Protectorate, 

 Mozambique, and many other places in the tropics supplied with 

 seeds from Cejdon and the Straits. 



Para rubber plants were sent to Borneo from Peradeniya as 

 far back as 1891, and the illustration on Plate 3, Series B, shows 

 how well this species of rubber grows in that country. The 

 photograph was obtained from the North Borneo Trading Co., 

 Ltd., and shows well-developed trees on the Para rubber estate 

 at Sikong, being as far as one can judge from the illustration, 

 lightly and carefully tapped on a system other than the herring- 

 bone or spiral.
