Quinine Imports in U S Rise From 1882 to 1912

Washington reports quinine and cinchona bark imports valued at about fourteen million dollars for 1900-1911. In the current year three and one half million pounds of cinchona bark and three million ounces of quinine salts are expected, while prices have fallen from two dollars per ounce in 1882 to about fifteen cents in 1912. Improved sanitation and disease control reduced quinine demand as chemical substitutes expanded. Cinchona, from Peru, Ecuador, and Bolivia, once a major exporter, is traced through historical context.
