Effective movement of herbal texts into electronic format. We have used a single system to move herbal texts into an electronic format. This system has worked well for texts printed after the era of mass printing. However, there are many texts that were written before 1600 a.d. It is likely that there are other mechanisms to complete the task of moving historic herbal texts into an electronic format. For example, the Missouri Botanical Gardens has manually scanned a number of historic herbal texts into electronic format [28]. 

The Amazon rubber industry collapsed almost overnight. In 1876 the English botanist Henry Wickham shipped 70,000 Hevea seeds to the Royal Botanic Gardens in London. New strains of Hevea were developed that produced three to four times as much mbber and were more disease-resistant than their wild Amazonian cousins. Soon, seedlings were sent to Malaya, Java, and other islands of the East Indies. Thirty-five years later, rubber plantations on these islands took control of the industry.

In 1918 Miss Helene M. Boas, of the New York Botanical Garden, sent to the writer a sample of manna which had been collected by James A. Teit near Spence s Bridge, British Columbia, from Douglas fir trees (Pseudotsuga taxifolia Brit., syn. P. Douglasii Carr.). The dry, white, crystalline manna (42.5 g.), in which some small stems and needles of the tree (4 g.) were encrusted, was entirely soluble in water and it proved to consist principally of melezitose.17 The authors stated that if the manna can be obtained in large quantities, which appears to be the case, it will indeed furnish an excellent source for melezitose. However, there was found within a few months by the same workers an abundant... 

Fresh leaves of rue were collected from the plants grown in the Botanical Garden, Naples. Two hundreds grams (fresh weight) of leaves were extracted directly by dipping them for 10 min in 1 litre of hot water (95°C). The resulting infusion was subsequently used for the germination experiments.

It was growing as an exotic exhibit in the government glass houses in Amsterdam in Holland. Dutch workers took it from there in 1710 and circled Africa with it, around the Cape of Good Hope, and it was soon growing in Surinam in the Western Hemisphere. Meanwhile it had traveled to the botanical garden hot houses in Paris, and from there it was also taken to French colonial sites in the West—French Guiana and Martinique. Direct introductions were likewise made from France to the Caribbean islands in 1721 and 1741. Coffee was found by these Dutch and French adventurers to be well adapted to the climates and soils of the western tropics.
