Samples of Apayao rubber in the
Phillippine islands collected from in
cisions in the stem of a vine that
grows in profusion throughout cer
tain parts of the mountain province
are being tested as commercial pos
sibilities in the rubber market. The
vine from which the juice is taken is
known as lamplit. The sample un
der exam ination has both the appear
ance and odor of raw rubber, and is
extrem ely resilient. The price of rub
ber has risen enorm ously since the
outbreak of the war, and if the local
product is of good quality It is quite
possible that a profitable industry
may be developed in the Apayao
country.

A method of conducting trade auc
| tions in which an electric announcer
takes the place of the calls of the
auctioneer for bids Is described by
P. L. Edwards, clerk to the Commer
cial Attache at The Hague, Nether
lands. The unuouncer consists of a
, large dlul tliut I h provided with an
index liund. The face of the dial is
marked with prices, increasing in
clockwise fashion, and the hand is
set at a price above that which the
goodB offered will probubly bring. It
Is then slow ly moved to lower and
lower figures until som e trader Indi
cates u desire to take the goods.
Electric push buttons are connected
with the dial, which the traders press
when a price satisfactory to them Is
reached
When a button Is pressed
the number of the trader appears on
the dial, and the goods go to him at
the price expressed by the index
hand
Fast sellin g and lack of con

from the announcer’s use.
