Book excerpt: Excerpt from India Rubber World, 1909 1910, Vol. 41 Iie story of The of the West, which won fame for Mr. Roosevelt as an author before he be came President, must be taken into account by whoever would understand the advance to $2 or more for rubber. Mr. Roosevelt, whose personal knowledge of America had been confined to the Atlantic coast. When he became a resident of the Rocky Mountain region, was inspired by the growth of a new \yestern empire under his eyes to write a book which has helped the nation to feel a sympathy with the Spirit which underlies the greatest of successes in colonization. For nothing that other great powers have done in the name of colonization in modern history has been compar able with the planting oi great and populous states in that vast desert which such men as Frederick M. Shepard and Dick Pease, still active in the rubber trade, used to traverse in stage coaches beyond the Mississippi when going to San Francisco to expand their trade. Mr. Shepard, by the way, can remember when his company bought Para rubber for 25 cents a pound, and so they might be doing to - day but for the winning of the west.
