Claimed That Raw Product Can be Ex­
tracted From Desert Plant.
Crude rubber made by a new
process is the claim made by the
Salida, Colo., Board of Trade, Bv
a series of experiments recently
made, it has been found that crude
rubber can be made from the roots
and stalks of the Colorado rubber
plant, a growth resembling sage­
brush in appearance, and said to
grow on the desert portions of the
West without irrigation or care.
When the stems and roots of the
plant are ground, a residue of crude
rubber, said to excel in quality the
finest Para product, remains.
The discovery of the strange pro­
cess was made by a miner in the
Colorado mountains, whose supply
of water was exhausted and who
thought by chewing a root he
would moisten his lips, He was
surprised to find that a gummy
residue like rubber was left in his
mouth after chewing the root of the
bush now called the Colara.lo rub­
ber plant. He experimented fur­
ther, and by the same process ac­
cumulated a piece of the raw rubber
as large as a hen’s egg when he
returned to Denver.
It is believed that a new indus­
try has been started by the acci­
dental discovery of the miner, and
articles already manufactured from
the plant prove that it is suitable
for use as rubber. The plant grows
on the dry plateaus of the West
and is said to be well adapted to
the dry sections of Oregon
