Cotton, Fibres, and other Tropical 
Agricultural Products. 
The “ India Rubber World,” New York, says “ There are so many points 
of connection between rubber and fibres in their distribution, if not in their 
cultivation, that the two Exhibitions will be complementary to each other.” 
And it must be borne in mind that the hour has now come for the producer 
and manufacturer to meet the chemist, the maker of machinery and of articles 
that come under the heading of the allied industries, and are required for the 
production of the finished goods from the raw products. It is also necessary for 
the makers of the finished goods to meet the sellers, exporters, dealers and others 
who are so largely responsible for placing the manufactures before the users 
generally. It is not proposed to hold another Exhibition in London after 1914, 
for about five years, and therefore all interested in rubber and other products 
of the soil, should give this coming Exhibition their generous support ; they 
may rest assured that it will be arranged and carried through in the same 
creditable manner as others have been.
