Not much unmanufactured ivory is imported direct by Canada, only a few hundred pounds in a year. The supply does not seem to diminâ€" ish. Sales are held quarterly in Lonâ€" don and usually the quantity put on the market varies from 15 to 30 tons. In Biblical times ivory was classed with gold and silver. _ Solomon‘s throre was made of ivory, overlaid with gold. Ivory is also got from the kippopotamus, wild _ boar, spert. whale and walrus. There are thousâ€" ands of uses for it. At one time all the ivory was found dead in the African jungle. Naâ€" tive expeditions collected it in the "cemeteries" where elephants went to die. It is estimated that now about 50 per cent. of the animals are shot, although the slaughtering is strictly controlled. h Ivory is one of the glamorous articles of trade that remain to us in thisg more prosaic industrial age. Africa is now the chief . source of supply. From Zanzibar and Mombasa, trading centres for the Kenya Colony and Uganda and Mozambique, reguâ€" lar shipments are made. Supplies are also obtained in the Sudan, and in the Central and West reâ€" gions, chiefly the Congo, Cameroom and Nigeria. Russia ships annually some mammoth tusks unearthed in Siberia, of an age estimated from one thowsand to fifty thousand years. A. small supply is got in Siam from elephants that have died of old age.
