The Brazilian Rubber Tree Trappers
The business of rubber gathering, af-
ter the forest has been reached, begins
with the opening of a ‘‘road”’—a wind-
ing pathway just wide enough to allow
a man to pass from tree to tree. Usually
100 rubber trees are connected by one
of these roads, the intervals between
them varying from twenty feet, or less,
to hundreds. While one man’s road
may not be more than a quarter of a
mile long, his nearest neighbor may
have to walk five or six times as far to
reach the same number of trees.
There is as much difference in the
milk from rubber trees asin the milk
from different cows. The consistency
of the sap varies, some yielding a larger
and some a smaller proportion of solid
rubber. In thesame road one tree may
yield a thick, creamy sap, while the
next will gave a watery one, or even
nothing at ail, the ‘fiow” being so
slight that the sap merely puts in an
appearance without reaching the cup
underneath. Where several ‘‘taps’’ are
made on the same tree, some may run
freely, while others give nothing at all.
On other trees, again, all the taps may
run freely. In view of these differences
in quality and quantity of the sap, the
yield of a road, instead of single trees,
is taken as a standard in any rubber
camp.
One man can easily tap 100 trees daily,
placing on each five or six cups to
catch the sap. These trees, on what is
called a good road, will yield, at the
commencement of the crop season, t
about 22 pounds of sap for each tap-
ping. But all the roads are not equally
good, and one with the yield just men-
tioned may lie next to another with a
yield of only 10 pounds of sap. On the
lower Amazon, in a field containing
several thousand rubber trees, not more
than 10 or 12 pounds of sap can safely
be counted on for each 100 trees per
day. Supposing the trees to be tapped
regularly for twelve weeks—the extent
of the tapping season—the total yield
per treeewould be about 7 pounds of
sap, or 3} pounds of cured rubber. But
a rubber gatherer can, without great ex.
ertion, work two roads during a season,
making, at the average yield here men-
tioned, 700 pounds of rubber. An ac-
tive, hard-working man can double
this product, and can do even better
with the help of his wife (seldom with
“benefit of clergy”) and children. In
partially cleared forests a rubber gath-
erer can care for more trees.
In the slate of Amazonas the aver-
age size of the rubber trees is larger, and
the yield is greater. This is because
rubber gathering has not been practiced
there so long, and the trees have been
allowed to mature fully before being
tapped. Inthe lower districts, where
the rubber industry bad its origin, the
yield per tree is much less now than for-
merly. A man who workedin the rub-
ber fields forty years ago cnce told me
that he had known roads of 100 {rees to
yield 40 to 45 pounds of sap per day,
while his early employer used to com-
plain because the yield had fallen from
60 and 65 pounds. To-day an ocea-
sional rubber tree will sometimes yield
two pounds at a single tapping, but
there are more on which the scanty exu-
dation dries on the bark without reach-
ing the cup.
The quantity of sap required for mak-
ing a pound of India rubber varies more
than the quantity of milk needed for a
pound of butter. While two pounds
may be given as the average, very much
more is sometimes necessary. The yield
of rubber from a given measure of sap
is greater at the beginning of the season
than at its close, the consistency of the
sap steadily diminishing.
The age at which rubber trees become
fit for tapping depends upon their sur-
roundings. In the dense forests they
will hardly bear tapping before the age
of twenty-five or thirty years ;in par-
tially cleared forests, they can be tap-
ped at sixteen years, while on lands
from which the other growth has been
removed; rubbers trees begin to yield at
ten years, and, if carefully treated, ap-
pear not to suffer from the tapping. The
trees in cleared space grow much more
rapidly than those in the dense forests.
Without doubt the application of science
would increase the yield of sap, and also
the proportion of solid rubber contained
in it, but this good result is not yet to
be looked for. The rubber gatherers
will trust to “the prodigality of nature’
until all the unexplored fields have
been opened and all the existing trees
have been exhausted. How long that
will bein the future may be imagined
when one reflects that trees continue to
be tapped that have been yielding rub-
ber ever since it became a marketable
commodity. :
The season for tapping trees may last
for three months, and sometimes six, the
operation being performed daily. This
is determined by the size of the trees
and the richness of the yield. In some
cases the trees are tapped only every
other day. In others. the trees are tap-
ped daily in the season, but only in
alternate years. A rubber gatherer
who owns nothing in the locality where
he works sometimes taps the trees so
heavily as to kill them in a single sea-
son, but such a man will find it hard
to get a road in the same field again.
These roads, by the way, often exist
year after year, and have a renta
value. '
The cups used for catching the rub-
ber milk as it oozes from the tree are
now mostly of tin, though in some
laces cups of burnt clay are’ still used,
Dy considered superior. The mak-
ing of the latter requires much time,
however, and they are liable to break,
so that tin cups are rapidly displacing
tnem. The clay cups are attached to
the rough bark of the tree with the aid
of a dab of wet clay, while the tin cups
are held in place by turning down the
top and pressing it into the bark. The
tins could be improved by the addition
of some sharp points to the back of
each. to drive into the bark. The cups
are wade in three sizes—4, 6, and 8
ounces. The smallest size is used on
the lower Amazon, the middle-sized
ones in Amazonas, in the developed
fields, and the largest size in virgin
fields. In the Jatter case smaller cups
are likely to be substituted before the
crop is finished.
As in every other industry, there are
careless, shiftless workers in rubber
gathering. Such persons, when finish-
ing their day’s labor, will throw the
empty cups on the ground at the foot
of the trees, with the ‘‘drippings’’ left
within. A more practical man, when
he begins the season, will drive into the
ground by each tree in his road a stick
in which there are as many saw cuts as
he has cups for the tree, while under-
reath is a box in which the last drop of
rubber is caught. These drippings at
the end of the season represent a not
small item.
A rubber gatherer who is fully con-
versant with his business and is desirous
of protecting his trees will work as fol-
lows: He will first mentally divide the
lower part of the trunk—-beginning
about one foot from the ground and go-
ing as high as he ean reach with his
hatchet—into six sections, representing
the six working days in the week. On
Monday, we will say, he will com-
mence work by making taps about |
eight inches apart around the trunk,
forming a circle as high as he can reach.
Under each incision he will placea cup
to catch the sap ; eight will be needed
for a ‘tree sixty-four inches in circum-
ference. On Tuesday the same tree
will be tapped on a circle about a foot
lower, the incisions being directly un-
der those made on the first day. By
continuing this process to the end of
the week, the circle of taps on Satur-
day will be about a foot from the
ground, and forty-eight incisions will
have been made,—i. e., six circles of
eight taps each. The next week he
will begin by tapping again in the cir-
cle of the previous Monday, but tap-
ping between the incisions in the circle.
When, after a time, no room for new
incisions can be found in the original
circles, now circles are started a short
distance below, and thus the work of
cutting into the bark is continued until
the whole surface of the tree is covered
with taps. It will then be necessary
for the tree to rest for the remainder of
the year—possibly for all of the next
year. If the tapping has been properly
done, by which is meant if the bark has
been cut into no more than is necessary,
and the wood not cut into at all, the in-
cisions will heal over so as to leave no
sign.
Much skill is needed in tapping rub-
ber trees. Deep incisions damage the
trees, but if they are too shallow, the
sap will not flow. If the tapper, on
failing at first to go deep enough, at-
tempts to strike again in the same place,
he is likely to miss his aim, thereby
and chipping out a bit of wood between
them, which wounds the tree. Some
superstitious people try to make the cut
in the form of a cross, “for luck.”
Having tapped the trees in his road
early in the day, and placed the cups
in position, the tapper returns home for
breakfast. Later he starts oat with a
bucket or other receptacle to coliect the
sap from the cups, beginning with the
first tree tapped, and going over the
ame route followed in the morning.
The milk does not run more than three
hours. At the end of his road he will
find himself near his hut again, where
he next proceeds to smoke the sap over
a fire of palm nuts.
In the case of some large trees two
series of circles are described in the tap-
ping, the upper series being reached by
means of a staging built around the
tree. Such treatment is likely to prove
fatal to ihe tree, however. It is good
management to avoid tapping during
the flowering season of the rubber tree,
which is during September. The best
months for tapping are July, August,
cember.
In answer to several correspondents it
may be said that a personal visit to the
Amazon states doubtless would prove a
more satisfactory source of information
than any letters that can be written
from here. Life is easy in these lati-
tudes, though somewhat oppressively de
rigeur in the cities, where Portuguese
customs still prevail. In the country,
especially in the rubber fields, it is quite
another matter. There a man may go
about dressed in a light flannel bunting
shirt and cotton trousers, a coat and
waistcoat being superfluous.

WasHINGTON, April 16.—It was re-
ported here yesterday that Secretary
Gresham, through Ambassador Bay-
ard, has informed Great Britain that
this country will not permit, without
an earnest protest, the bombardment
of Greytown, and that the landing of
British troops on Nicaraguan soil will
be viewed as an act inimical to Ameri-
can interests, and an infraction of the
Monroe doctrine.
To-day itis learned that the state
department has made no protest against
any proposed British action in Nicara-
gua, for the very good reason that the
issue between itselt and Nicaragua as
one in which no other nation can have
any concern, and has not acquainted
the government of the United States
with the exact purposes, and it is not
known here officially that Greytown is
to be bombarded.
| Loxpon, April 16.—It is stated on
good authority that the question of a
protest upon the part of the United
States against the bombardment of
Greytown and the landing of British
troops in Nicaragua has never been
raised between Great Britain and the
United States so far as the British gov-
ernment is aware. In any case, it is
added, the British will not bombard
Greytown in the event of Nicaragua re-
fusing to comply with the demands of
Great Britain. But steps will be taken
to insure the payment of the indem-
nity demanded by the British govern-
ment, and the necessary orders have
been sent to commodores of British
warships, The foreign office has re-
ceived no information, and discredits
the report that the United States has
indicated objections to the bombard-
ing of Greytown or the landing of
troops.
. The “Globe” this afternoon says the
answer of Nicaragua to the altimatum
of Great Britain regarding the expul-
sion of Minister Hatch, British con-
sular agent, from Nicaraguan territory
is not acceptable to the British govern-
ment and steps to enforce the ultima-
| tum will be taken immediately.
