IN your issue of October 19 you report a communication made to the French Academy of Sciences by Messrs. Dybowski and C. Fron regarding the cultivation of Eucommia ulmoides, a plant said by them to contain gutta-percha. I am naturally much interested in the possibility of this interesting tree, the “Tu chung” of the Chinese, becoming of economic importance, as some years ago I investigated the bark and leaves of this plant with regard to the peculiar cells containing a rubber-like substance (Trans. Linnean Society, 1892, vol. iii., part 7).
