Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, 1897, Vol. 69 When the kino exudes it is of the consistency of molasses, and has a sourish odor. In a few days it dries into a solid mass, which subsequently becomes quite friable. It is owing to this property (shared by other kinos of my turbid group )that it cannot be collected in an indurated condition by simple picking from the bark of the trees, as can kinos belonging to my ruby and gummy groups, which do not become friable with age. As much as 4 gallons have been procured from one tree, but this is exceptional. On an average, not more than 1 quart per tree is obtained, and from the majority of trees no appreciable quantity of kino is obtained by tapping. Many are all but free from it. The usual price paid on the Murray River at the present time, for liquid kino (before induration) is 7d. Per pound, and a large quantity could be forthcoming at that price, if a steady demand were to set in for it. A good workingman can procure between 10 and 12 pounds per day of the liquid kino. It loses but little weight in drying. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
