Excerpt from Plantation Rubber and the Testing of Rubber: With Plates and Diagrams Within the present decade the rubber industry has undergone great expansion. The chief impulse to this expansion came from the development of the automobile. This development produced a demand for rubber for the purpose of manufacturing tyres, which the supply of wild rubber was unable to meet, and which led to a vast expansion in the already-established plantation industry of the Eastern tropics. During the years 1909-10 the price of raw rubber rose to an unprecedently high level; and there followed a spectacular "boom" in rubber planting and a less spectacular boom in the manufacture of rubber goods, particularly of tyres. The extent to which the rubber industry has expanded during the present decade may be gathered from the fact that the world's production of raw rubber in 1917 (the last normal year) was 3.64 times as large as in 1910. This increased production is entirely accounted for by an increase in the production of plantation rubber, which grew in amount from a quantity forming in 1910 11.6 to a quantity forming in 1917 79.5 per cent of the total production. The increased production of raw rubber has been absorbed chiefly by the rubber manufacturing industry in the United States, which consumed 5.76 times as much raw rubber in 1917 as in 1910. The following table shows the salient statistics regarding the volume of raw rubber production from a time when plantation rubber began to be produced in noticeable quantities. The above statistics are represented graphically in Fig. I, at the back of the volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
